Re: Awesome Cover of the Day - All I Want (Toad the Wet Sprocket)

nandango — Wed, 25 Jun 2008 09:45:12 -0000

OOHH, I had forgotten about that song! A couple of weeks ago I was going through all my old blank tapes listening to what I had recorded from the radio...aahh, the good 'ol days of recording from the radio...anyway, the songs were almost all from the 90's and most of them I had long forgotten. And I realized a lot of groups came out at the same time that all sounded the same and had semi-similar names: Everlast, Everclear, Tonic, SemiSonic, Eve 6, Lit, ect. Great trip down memory lane!

Yeah I do have that CD and I love it! Well most of the songs anyway, some just plain suck. Midtown's cover of I don't Want To Lose Your Love Tonight is my favorite on the CD. I just really like that song no matter who covers it. The original is great, this cover is great, and Wyclef did an awsome reggae version. The CD even made Paula Abdul's song Straight Up sound good.

It's always a little unnerving when our window washer people come. One b/c I never hear them and the next thing I know they're right there in my window and two b/c I'm concerned they're going to fall. Looking at this pic I almost thought it was taken in my own work station. There's some company out there that has the market cornered on tacky office cubicles.

This is me every single day for about 6 of my 8 hours. I constantly check my usual sites and then like a lot of others head to Wikapedia or IMDB. That or I just bring in a book.

Re: 10 Ways Musicians Piss Off Their Fans

nandango — Fri, 27 Jun 2008 14:46:50 -0000

I hate when groups don't play their old hit songs. As cheesy as it sounds, the best concert I went to was Richard Marx last year. Granted he's kind of a has been so the tickets were cheap and the seats incredibly good but the show was awesome. He played some new stuff but mostly his old stuff, engaged the crowd, didn't have tons of thrills and lights or whatnot (actually none of that), and hardly took a break between each song. I love it!

I really liked Vantage Point as well. I thought the way it was told was different than I had seen before and you had to pay attention through out the whole thing. Great Debaters was really good as well but I remember there being some part that lasted kind of long but it's been a while since I saw it so I can't really remember. I thought Definitely Maybe was so so. I was glad I only paid a $1 to see it.

I'm a deleter. I usually delete any forward I get not just those annoying ones about candidates. If they don't get the hint (and we're friends) I just flat out tell them to stop sending me forwards. Period. If I don't know the person sending them they are put in junk/spam. But maybe I should start sending them back.

Those snack wraps are pretty good - maybe that's what I'll have for lunch today. I like eating at Wendy's off their dollar menu. Hmm, salad, baked potato, chilli, chicken sandwich...second thought, maybe I'll go there.

Re: Why is it So Hard to Wake Up in the Morning?

nandango — Tue, 29 Jul 2008 14:38:30 -0000

I HATE the sound of repetitive noises so more often than not I'll wake up before my alarm goes off...I also go crazy when people don't answer their phone after a couple of rings. I get up pretty early and generally do so without too much trouble. The problem for me hits about 2 in the afternoon and I'm ready for a nap. And of course I oversleep on the weekends. It's a vicious cycle.

I hate that Mmm Bop is so catchy! Next thing you know you're singing it for the rest of the day. I would have to put something from New Kids on the Block on my guilty pleasure list. But I'm not overly embarrassed by that so maybe that doesn't count. Hmm, maybe Vanilla Ice then? Yep, that works.

I'm like MTAE and look at the clock during the night, except I remember doing it. I also sometimes wake up (sort of) when I want to roll over. Not enough to keep me awake but enough that I remember doing it. I don't think I snore, talk, sleep walk, grind my teeth, or whatever else people do but it might be fun to find out for sure.

Re: Friday 5 - The 5 awkward things that happen at work almost every day

nandango — Fri, 07 Nov 2008 14:45:11 -0000

#4 reminds me of The Office episode from last night. If you didn't watch it you should. That show is freak'n hilarious. And I do #5 all the time. As long as my work gets done my boss honestly doesn't care when I leave. I usually work from 7-3 but find myself leaving an hour or two earlier. And since I'm losing my job in a couple of months I have to use up my sick hours (which I've never used in the three hours I've worked here). So Tuesday I was out of here by 10:30 *sigh*. It was awesome.

Re: Bacon + Breading + Gravy = Another reason bacon rules all

nandango — Tue, 11 Nov 2008 16:49:22 -0000

I'm not a huge bacon fan. I can eat it for breakfast and on the jr. bacon cheeseburgers at wendy's but that's about it. It's salty to me and I don't like salt. My roommate loves bacon and always gets it if it's an option somewhere and to be honest, watching her eat sometimes makes me a little sick (lots of bacon and well, any other meat piled high). I'm not anti-meat but there's a limit for me I guess.

Mine is pretty much the same as yours except I use the word balance. If I could just get everything in my life balanced that would be awesome. I've always thought if I were to get a tattoo (yeah right I'm such a chicken) it would be something about balance.

Without music I would probably poop out after about 20 seconds. I have to listen to loud, semi-angry stuff to keep me going. My regular stuff includes Fall Out Boy, Link'n Park, Panic!, Red Jumpsuit, Pink, and Evenescence. There are others but I think you get the jist.

Re: 5 Reasons to Quit Drinking Soda

I used to drink coke ALL THE TIME! My favorite besides regular coke was to mix cherry coke with mountain dew - don't knock it till you try it. Anway, a little over two years ago I cut all carbonation cold turkey to try to be more healthy. The withdraws sucked at first but now I don't notice. If I need something other than water I drink some kind of juice and if that isn't sweet enough I'll go for lemonade.
