Time for one of these…

Most of the people who constituted my core readership when I gave people something to read probably know this already, but I am still alive, as of this moment.

Have been trying to figure out what to do with this site for…years, really.

Today, I read comic books, moved about 20,000 trading cards up to the room where the rest of them live (nothing new, I was just pulling commons for trades back in the spring and it took me 6 months to put them back), listened to Billy Squier albums for the 2nd day in a row (I’ve done both of his albums with Piper, and 6 of his 9 solo albums…nice…if you’re curious, they seem to have an “even-numbered solo albums are the best ones” thing going on…), and continued to watch people settle in on Blueski. Cooking dinner in a minute.

I updated some of the sidebar stuff (which most of you will see at the bottom, rather than on the side, because this layout is that dated), and the want lists should all be up to date.

What to do next, indeed.

What have the rest of you been up to?

  1. You can never go wrong with Billy Squier. My mom listened to him a lot when I was young, and like most of her favorite music, it developed into favorites of mine as well.

    And I joined the BlueSky the other day. I don’t know how much I’ll use it, but I’m on there. I’m not very computer savvy, so it’s nice that the layout seems to be the same as Twitter, that way I don’t have to try and figure out a whole new system

    1. I made it through all the albums, finished Happy Blue this morning (most unexpectedly touching cover of Joni Mitchell’s “River” ever toward the end of the album). Totally worthwhile, even if some of the albums are better than others (I think there was friction between Squier and producers/A&R on the regular, and that’s where things went sideways sometimes). Tell The Truth, his last full-band album (or full-band-comprised-of-session-musicians album, anyway) is one that everyone except hardcore Squier fans slept on because his label didn’t promote it at all, and it’s really, really good. Even Happy Blue, which is just him and his acoustic guitar, no overdubs, is really a solid record.

      Just gave you a follow over on teh Blueski. My worlds there are not as separate as they were when I had 2 accounts at the birb site, but I’m too tired to care at this point. People get my whole self there, weird hobbies and lefty politics and disability stuff, or they get nuthin’. I figure most will roll with it.
