A Feast for the Ears

Got another album that I would like to share with you all.  This one comes from a Swedish artist called My Own Sorrow.  Their sound is best described as dark electro mixed with mystery, occult and horror.  Download the album now by clicking the link below.

Happy Birthday to Me!

Today, I turned the big ??.  My brother, sister in-law and their rugrat came over yesterday for a small pre-birthday celebration.  Was hoping to have a birthday gift haul to share with you folks.  But no such luck.  My only gift was a $30 Visa gift card.

Later that evening, I was presented with not 1, but 2 birthday cakes.  One of them was a strawberry shortcake that my brother and sister in-law had bought.  The other, a strawberry flavored cake with strawberry frosting that my mother had made.  See what happens when family doesn't properly communicate with each other.  You end up with 2 cakes. =D

What's New?

Happy November, readers.  Besides having a birthday coming up in a couple of weeks, nothing much has been going on with me.  Still got some DIY projects that need to be completed and I have to make a return to the eye doctor to see about having the lenses in my glasses adjusted.  Even though things are no longer blurry as hell when I wear them, I'm still having a hard time with reading text.  Hopefully, this is a problem that can be easily remedied.

Happy Massive Candy Distribution Day!

Halloween is here!  Time to put on your slutty nurse, cat, viking, etc. costume and hit the streets.  Don't have plans this evening?  Never fear.  I have some movie recommendations for you.

• The Rocky Horror Picture Show: This movie is filled with thrills, chills and b-movie special effects goodness.
• The Nightmare Before Christmas: Who doesn't love a movie about a Halloween spirit trying to hijack Christmas?  Nobody!
• Corpse Bride: About a girl who's always the dead bridesmaid and never the dead bride.
• Coraline: Motherly love to the creepy extreme.  
• The Devil Wears Prada: A movie featuring a woman who can put the fear of God in you for simply wearing the wrong shoes to work.  Terrifying.
• She-Devil: Roseanne, adultery and acts of revenge.  I suggest you don't watch this movie with the lights off. 

There you have it.  My movie recommendations for Halloween.  Hope you enjoy.

All Treat and No Trick

Hello, boys and girls.  As an early Halloween present, here's a treat for the ears.  Jules Marie, one of my new favorite artists, has just released her second full album titled "Scarlet Lore."  Her sound is a dark mix of alternative, electronic, and dream pop with a bit of ambience.  "Scarlet Lore"  is available for free on bandcamp.com.   You can also get to the album download page by clicking the link below.

Awesome Discovery

About a month ago, the mailman accidentally put a catalog into my mailbox that was meant for somebody else.  It was from this online store called The Pyramid Collection.  After looking through the catalog, I saw that the shop sold items that catered to a lot of different subcultures.  Like Gothic, Steampunk and other new age subcultures.  If these type of things Interests you, click the link below and give the site a look-see.

Jewelry Rehab 3: The Finale

I did it!  Last weekend, I finally completed my necklace project.  I ditched the elastic cord that I had originally planned to use and threaded some of the beads from my broken bracelet onto a short ball chain that I had sitting in my jewelry box.  Then, I took the rest of the beads and fed them through a pair of large silver hoop earrings that my mother had gave me.

For the low price of free, I created a cute jewelry set.  On to the next project.
