Mar. 1st, 2008 12:24 pmNew layout! (
brokenrecord__) It turned out more green than I expected, but I think I like it. I think I'm most happy about having a new font. The font I was using before was fine when I had a PC, but ever since I switched to a Mac, it looked weird and hard to read. ...and yeah, that was last July, and I could have changed it, but I always figured I'd just change it when I got a new layout, and then... it took me awhile to make a new layout. But anyways. It's changed now. The header is of John and Aeryn. Lyrics are kind of randomly from three songs: "That Green Gentleman" by Panic at the Disco, "Rebellion (Lies)" by The Arcade Fire, and "Honey and the Moon" by Joseph Arthur.
Anyways, I finally watched Company last night! lksjfd I love Raul Esparza ridiculous amounts. Actually, I love the musical as a whole an insane amount. It was really well-done. But yeah, I thought I loved Being Alive before, but seeing it in context and seeing him perform it... guh. How did he not get the Tony for that performance? I really wish I had been able to see this live. That would have been amazing. It was still awesome, though.
So, now I get to spend the weekend writing my English paper. My goal for today is to get 2/3 of it done, so I'm hoping that happens. At least I'm feeling basically 100% better.

Oh, and I was checking out your userinfo and I didn't realize you watched Skins! That's awesome. :D

Heh, yeah, I guess I don't post about it very much. I watched the entire first season last summer and made like one post about it. I've been watching this season and I keep meaning to comment on it, but I always forget. But yeah, I really like Skins.

Date: 2008-03-01 09:58 pm (UTC)Don't you hate those PC to Mac changes? :( But then again... Mac >>> PC. Only thing I am upset about it spending $70 on Paint Shop Pro and having my computer die 2 months later, buying a Mac, and then realizing PSP won't work. Grr. And Adobe costs far too much. So I'm using some weird ImageReady thing that I will never get use to. I am so limited on it.
Anyway. YAY FOR COMPANY!! I've watched it several times since it aired. It's just so much fun to watch. And yes, he was robbed of his Tony. David Hdye Pierce is cool and all, but this was Raul's year. I know they were afraid of David possibly never being up for one again but come on - that's nor reason to rob Raul's of him deserving it more. :\
Good luck on your paper!

Date: 2008-03-01 10:06 pm (UTC)Basically the EXACT same thing happened to me! Like, I got PSP free from somewhere years ago and then my PC crashed a year ago. So this time I bought PSP for $70. Then, 6 months later, I got a Macbook for graduation, and found, like you, that PSP didn't work and Photoshop costs way too much. So I got Boot Camp and a copy of Windows for my birthday in January, only to find that the product key I bought PSP a year ago only worked once and I had to buy PSP all over again. This time I actually bought the CD, rather than just a product key (which I guess I should've just done the first time. But I didn't know!), so I finally have PSP, and hopefully have bought it for the last time. Ugh. But yeah, despite stupid PC to Mac changes, Mac is infinitely better than PC, and I definitely don't regret getting a Macbook.
It really was awesome to watch. Now I want to get the DVD (which I guess comes out sometime in March?). I didn't see David Hyde Pierce's performance, so I guess I can't really judge between the two, but... I can't imagine anyone being better than Raul was that year. I remember being slightly upset about it last year when watching the Tonys, but now, after actually seeing the musical, I really can't believe he didn't win.
Thanks! :D
