The guy that's repainting a few rooms in our house (he's a friend of my parents. I feel I should mention that, or else this seems kind of random) asked me if I liked Pennywise (I do) and then told me that his wife is friends with the bassist's wife and that they're having this release party on Catalina and KROQ's giving out only 500 tickets and they're invited and stuff. Totally awesome. I want to go. blah. Oh well.

No SAT class today, so I've just been catching up on Sluggy Freelance, since the last two months of school got kind of hectic and I stopped reading it regularly. So, I decided to start from the beginning and go through it until I finally get to the current comics.


I've done this several times in the past, but I'm bored, and it's fun. Besides, I haven't done it in awhile, so why not?

18. I'm through with these pills that make me sit still. / "Are you feeling fine?" / Yes, I feel just fine. Everything is Alright - Motion City Soundtrack [kill_you_dead]

Eh, I guess he kind of did. He didn't seem like he was bragging too much about it, though. But it was kind of being rubbed in my face, I guess. Oh well.

And yep, that's correct! :)

[sky-dreamer47.livejournal.com]

22. Save the Last Dance for Me by Ben E. King? Or perhaps by Michael Bublé? There are lots of versions of the same song by different artists I know.

[http://users.livejournal.com/brokenrecord__/]

The one I have is Ben E. King & The Drifters, but I know there are many different versions of it, so as long as you got the song right, I wouldn't have cared if you got the artist right. So yep, you got that one right. :)

[sky-dreamer47.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I have that version as well :) Yay, I got one right!
