Wheee I got Pretty. Odd. today! I totally didn't expect it to come until, like, Thursday, because Amazon claimed it wouldn't be delivered until Wednesday and the school post office is so. slow. that I figured it would take a full other day to actually get it to me. But I checked my box after class and it was there! And, ok, I've been listening to the leak pretty much non-stop since last Tuesday (I did stop to fall in love with The Hush Sound, though. I now have all three of their albums), but it's still exciting to have the actual CD in my hand. And I can listen to the songs on shuffle with other songs in between! And listen to individual songs on repeat! This might not seem like a big deal, but there are some songs that I just wanted to listen to on repeat for like an hour (mostly Folkin' Around. I think that's my favorite on the CD, partially just because it's just so short and every time I listen to it I feel like there needs to be more. If that makes any sense. And also partially just because it's awesome), and I got tired of listening to all the songs in the same order over and over. And now my Honda Civic Tour playlist is complete! (Well, I only have one Phantom Planet song. But whatever.)

As I mentioned above, I now have all three The Hush Sound albums and I am totally loving them. I think Goodbye Blues is the best, then Like Vines, and then So Sudden, but I still love them all. And ha, I had such a stupid moment when I was listening to Like Vines for the first time. Don't Wake Me Up came on and at the end I was like "Huh. Bob sounds kind of like Patrick here." And then I went through the album a second time and it came up and I was like "HOLY SHIT THAT IS PATRICK." And I TOTALLY KNEW BEFOREHAND that he produced that CD AND I heard that he sang on one of the songs. AND I EVEN THOUGHT "WOW THIS VOICE SOUNDS LIKE PATRICK'S ISN'T THAT INTERESTING?" and it TOTALLY didn't connect. A similar thing happened when listening to The Cab's new song last night. I recognized Patrick's voice right off the bat (and flailed accordingly), but it took me a second time to recognize Brendon's. And this was after listening to the leak of Pretty. Odd. all afternoon and hearing his part and thinking "This voice sounds REALLY FAMILIAR and totally isn't from The Cab BUT I DON'T KNOW WHO." ugh. I fail.

Anyways. Non-bandom related things now! Well, just one thing. Torchwood 2.12 )

By the way, I totally am still planning on posting the photos from the photo meme, even though it may appear that I totally forgot about it. I was going to do it during break, but I kept telling myself that I had time left during break and that I didn't need to do it yet and... then break was over. But I will do it! Soon! Just... not now. And probably not tomorrow or Thursday. But definitely by Friday! Probably.

I bought The Hush Sound's "Goodbye Blues" on a whim since they're playing Honda Civic Tour and I remember hearing some music of theirs before and kind of liking it and OMG LOVE. I am enjoying this CD SO MUCH. Now I'm looking forward to Honda Civic Tour even more than I was before (and I was looking forward to it before an insane amount as it is).

Ugh, spring break is close to being over. Do not want. I am really dreading the second half of this semester. I have 3 papers (10 pp, 8 pp, and 4 pp), a major rewrite of a paper (the rewrite is worth 15% of my grade, which is actually more than the paper itself was worth), 5 tests, 1 in-class essay, and a short, abstract film. Plus, when I go back, I get to get the grades back from the tests I took right before break! Oh, fun. Speaking of school stuff, midterm grades are in, and so far I have two As, an A-, and a B+. Pretty happy with those grades, but I feel like the A- and the B+ are going to drop by the end of the semester. Oh well.

I have just a few comments on this week's episode of Torchwood. Torchwood 2.11 )
