So, I have unwittingtly become my neighborhood's crazy cat lady. And early Sunday am, one of the ferals gave birth on my patio to three kittens. Then she split. She has not been back since. I woke up in the morning to find them with their birth sacs still attached. Happy Mom's Day huh? lol. They are really cute and require a lot of care. I'm going to tell them that "mom" ran off with the Grateful Dead once they are old enough.
Kat has sent me yet another care package full of awesome stuff! She says it's a late Xmas present. Either way, I know she cares. Tons of stuff - Bedhead Shampoo/Conditioner, Milo chocolate milk, TimTam cookies, Kinder Chocolate, a giant lolipop, a PS3 controller in Jungle Green, a Rilakkuma tea cup as well as an awesome Rilakkuma pillow. She also included an illustration and a nice letter that she decorated with a variety of different stickers. Some of them are really cool and I've never seen them before. The illustration is sweet too. Noone else has ever drawn pictures of me before, and I did not ask her to, she just does it on her own and that means a lot to me. I know she put a lot of time and effort into the drawing and letter, as well as the package itself. Time out of her own life spent on things she wanted to do for me.

Happy Easter everyone. I'm not a practicing Christian, but I grew up observing the traditional Christian Holidays, well, at least two of them. Christmas and Easter. My parents never went to church, and neither did any of my grandparents, but we still celebrated those days. For me, the holidays were special because it was the times of the year when all the family would spend time together, religion was never discussed other than the occasional frowned-upon "Goddamnit, Jesus Christ" from any of us.
So anyway, happy easter
I finished this song remix that I put together for a contest that the band is having. The band Human Factors Lab will decide the winner and that person's remix will be included on their next album. I seriously doubt I'll win, but I like to give my support to them. I didn't rearrange the song parts or loop anything endlessly. I like the song's arrangement just the way it is. Most of the time I can't stand remixes because the person mixing it always tries to give the song a different feel and ultimately butchers everything. With the exception of Fear Factory's album Remanufacture, and a French DJ called Randomatik Blast, I pretty much never hear a remix that even comes close to being as good as the original that they severed and spliced to shit.
What kind of seems in poor taste is that the deadline for this remix and the song that was designated coordinated with this -
In worse news, my newly adopted kitten died early this morning. She was a stray that somebody had abandoned. She was severely malnourished and could barely walk. She started sleeping on my patio for shelter and food. There are a lot of feral cats in my community and I feed them every day. So anyway, I brought her indoors about two weeks ago to try and nurse her back to health. All her physical symptoms matched what happens when a cat drinks antifreeze. It causes irreversible kidney failure and they die from organ failure. Medical treatment cannot even save them. She barely ate, and did not drink much water either, but she would purr and climb up in my chair and liked attention. She did not seem to be in pain and then this morning she started having trouble breathing and I went to check on her, she could not even lift her head but she mewed and purred a little bit but her breathing became less and less, and then a few minutes after that her body shook, like when you strain to lift something, and she stopped breathing completely. I just sat there waiting for her to come out of it like it was temporary. It wasn't.
She is the second cat that I have had that died on Easter. Strange odds. 1 in 365, and it happens twice, like lightning striking the same place twice.
I'm sorry to hear that ... It's always hard losing a pet. If it's any comfort, know that at least you gave her in her last weeks the love and attention she deserved.As for your remix, nice work. Strangely enough I'm not usually keen on growled vocals, but somehow I've got the chorus going round and round my head now.
Happy Easter to you too, BestieI'm sorry that the kitty passed away it is very sweet that you made her passing comfortable and as calm and relaxed as possible Love you
I wrote a letter just the other day to nobody in particular
But if anyone were to read a bit - they'd think I was a bit peculiar
But it matters not what they think of me, it's only what I know is real
And so all that's left that matters now - is that the feeling's back
The feeling's back and you just can't stop it
The feeling's back and you just can't stop it
I fought a thousand times - I never knew the meaning of the word fear
Till that one day when I stood alone - staring straight into the mirror
It's not a pretty sight - and even worse it's so hard to face
Until I realize I'm the only one that put me in this place
I'm gonna breathe I'm gonna live - that's right-nothing's gonna stop me
I'm gonna shout I'm gonna scream - that's right-nothing's gonna stop me
I'm gonna run I'm gonna fly - that's right - nothing's gonna stop me
I'm gonna fight I'm gonna win - that's right-nothing's gonna stop me
Nothing's gonna stop me, nothing's gonna stop me now...
Cause the feeling's back and you gotta love the feeling
I dug my hole too deep - I couldn't admit, I didn't know when to stop
But you can only dig your hole six feet until the dirt comes back on top
I've got a long way left to climb but I'll still look you straight in the eye
And I can honestly say I'll never quit - not even on the day I die
Kat gets lot of attention here currently. She is worth the recognition and appreciation though, even if it means me, not being "cool" or having some tough guy or sarcastic image. She sent me a belated birthday/Christmas package with lots of wonderful gifts, more than I could ever expect from a friend. And now, today is her Birthday!
Apparently, she is going to a concert/festival where she lives featuring Metallica, Slayer, Anthrax, A Perfect Circle and lots of other bands that I can't remember. That's an awesome way to celebrate, and I wish I could be there too. That's a lot of my favorite bands "under one roof".
Happy Birthday to you Kat!! Thank you for being such a great best friend to me. You are always so kind and thoughtful and you deserve all the happiness and love in the world.
I hope your Birthday is awesome and that you have lots of fun at the concert. You can expect a Birthday package in the mail from me soon.
Love You Bestie!!
Kat and I exchange gifts through the mail on our Birthdays and Christmas. I made this video while talking to her on the phone and talking about her gifts that I recieved a couple days ago. Her kindness and generosity is more than I could ever expect from somebody and it always humbles me to realize how much she cares for me. It's as though she is happiest when she is making somebody smile. So this video is for her. Thank you Kat, for all your generosity and for being my best friend. It's the first video I have ever uploaded here and anybody that views it will get to hear my crappy voice and witness the horror of my side profile. lol
I cuddle theee!! I looooove the video, and wow Thank you for all the kind, lovely words It makes me smile to see you all happy and smiley!! You're the Bestest Friend ever and I love you 50,000 x 50,000 Keep smiling, Bunny
Here's a new song I finally finished recording. I'm not a teenage girl so I can't demand validation, thus it is your duty to tell me how much you hate it. Marco Polonium by Mingzi
Big Trouble in Little China is an awesome movie. I used to watch it over and over again when I was younger. I like dimly lit rooms with asian architecture or furnishings. Even when it's totally contemporary it still has this underlying sinister feel to it. Even when I was little I'd be at this one place with lots of heavy, dark wood and koto music would be playing and I thought "monsters live here". Dragons, Lions, Buddha statues that gave me nightmares, Bakaneko and Tanooki too.
