*seethes*

In other news, I drew the Ghostfacers as Powerpuffs. I'll ETA them to this post later tonight after my RAGE subsides.

ETA #1: I also almost had a near-death experience tonight. Elizabeth and I were watching the Rifftrax version of Revenge of the Sith, and I inhaled my coke. It was in my lungs. Seriously, guys, that crap is really that funny. :) Download them now and you, too, can drown on dry land! :D

ETA #2: So I promised tahu I'd put these up, so here's the preliminary lineart for the Ghostfacers. There's no pupils yet, and I'm probably going to change a lot of this cause the only ones I'm actually happy with are Ed and Corbett, but... such is life.

( Ghost! Ghostfacers! )

Question of the Day:

Do you think that playing "Iron Man" on my ukulele counteracts any negative effects I could receive from watching Girlicous?

**It's my roommate's fault. She finds cracky TV, and then we somehow become unable to change the channel. Truly. Oh wow this show is abysmal. Good luck with that, CW.

I'm currently working on about 15 different songs on my ukulele; I learned the riffs to "Hells Bells" and a bunch of other awesome songs and I will play them as we make pie for Supernatural. Oh, Mr. Kripke. You may have been joking about a fandom-wide bake sale to raise your special effects budget, but my roommate and I want to make pie to fund you. :)

In other news, tonight was a good night. My purple rainboots and new socks came in, my mom made beef stroganoff, and my brother watched Mythbusters with me. Good times. <3

Now to finish it all off with an eclipse. Should be good times, running out into the cold for a little while just to see the red moon. But it's supposed to be pretty, so... yay! :D

So I did none of the things I set out to do yesterday when I got home. I helped my mom grocery shop, then went home to bother my brother and play my ukulele. After dinner, we kept joking about going to Best Buy to play Rock Band^[1], and somewhere along the line, we stopped joking.

So I got behind the wheel of the Prism for the first time in a month, and blasted Led Zeppelin the whole way there^[2]. It was delightful. We also parked in the boonies and ran skipping the entire way in^[3].

When we first got there, there were two girls playing, so I sidled up to the drums and started rocking not realizing they were on lefty flip. So... that was an interesting experience. It did totally feel backwards, but it's really not all that much different and I wonder slightly why they have that option in there...? But anyways, the kick pedal on the drum is broken, so it's very hard to play songs with kick pedal in them if the people playing the guitars can't get any star power to save you. *cough,cough*

So the fun didn't really kick in until Nick got up there with the guitar, and this other guy came along and played bass. Nick had a cheat code that unlocked all the songs, so we played a few that we never had, and a good time was generally had by all. :)

Then the crazy started to happen. I turned around on the drums and saw a little kid standing there, so I asked him if he wanted to play^[4]. Then I joked that I'd sing. Little did I know, they actually have the microphone hooked up, and Nick knew how to make it work.

So he made me sing.

In public.

Because he's a jerk.

Now, let's get one thing straight. I don't sing. It's because I know I can't. That's the reason my Tribute movie was such an incredibly horrible task; it's embarrassing for me to think about and/or let other people watch. So singing live in front of other people on a stupid video game really sucks.

Except it totally doesn't. :D

I loved it. We started out with "Say It Ain't So", and I was really nervous and angry and couldn't find a comfortable place to sing it, so it was a little awkward. But then we played "Don't Fear (The Reaper)" and I just got into the cowbell. x)

So before we left, I made Nick play Enter Sandman one more time. And I threw my hood up over my head, and told him if he saw anyone we knew to let me know so we could run^[5], and I belted out "Enter Sandman".

And I have never had so much fun in my life.

Footnotes: (Yeah, I'm being this dorky again. :D)
1) Yeah, we seriously go hang out at Best Buy to play a game that we own but my mother won't give him until his birthday. I'm trying desperately to work the gas money angle, but it's not working. e.x;
2) Me:"They played this song at their concert, too!"
Nick: Mmmmmmhmmmmmmmmmm..... *changes music to Metallica*
3) Singing "Enter Sandman" at this point. Nick had been saying someone had unlocked it on the game at Best Buy, so I was a little excited. :D
4) Hey, I'm not about to get eviscerated by a small, creepy child just because he didn't get to play Rock Band. I've watched too many TV shows/movies with evil children to underestimate them. *shudders*
5) Seriously, we live in the smallest city ever. I had no idea until this past summer, a girl from school wrote on my Facebook wall about seeing me ride my bike down the street. That's frightening.
