think less but let it grow
like a riot, like a riot, oh!
I'm not easily offended
it's not hard to let it go
from a mess to the masses
fun. - All The Pretty Girls (On A Saturday Night)
I don't understand your reasons
Please just stay over the weekend
You can't take all those things
They define you and me
everything we've become,
You're all that I need
Please don't make me face my generation alone.
Coeur de Pirate - Comme Des Enfants
mais il m'aime encore, et moi je t'aime un peu plus fort
but he still loves me, and I love you a little more
Lady Gaga - Teeth
tell me something that’ll save me
I need a man who makes me alright
just tell me when it's alright
tell me something that'll change me
I'm gonna love you with my hands tied
show me your teeth
Owl City - On The Wing
I am floating away
Lost in a silent ballet
I'm dreaming you're out in the blue and I am right beside you
Awake to take in the view
Late nights and early parades
Still photos and noisy arcades
My darling, we're both on the wing, look down and keep on singing
And we can go anywhere
Are you there?
Are you there, or are you just a decoy dream in my head?
Am I home or am I simply tumbling all alone?

calm
( by the way, young!John? fits right into that type I was talking about before. mmm. )
I can't be the first person who's had that thought. Will Dean ever have it is the real question, and I'm afraid the answer is going to be no.

Florence and the Machine - Drumming
There's a drumming noise inside my head
That starts when you're around
I swear that you could hear it
It makes such an almighty sound
Louder than sirens
Louder than bells
Sweeter than heaven
And hotter than hell
As I move my feet towards your body
I can hear this beat it fills my head up
and gets louder and louder
it fills my head up and gets louder and louder
Florence and the Machine - Dog Days are Over
And I never wanted anything from you
Except everything you had and what was left after that too, oh
Happiness hit her like a bullet in the head
Struck from a great height by someone who should know better than that
The dog days are over
The dog days are done
Can you hear the horses?
'Cause here they come
Run fast for your mother, run fast for your father
Run for your children, for your sisters and brothers
Leave all your loving, your loving behind
You can't carry it with you if you want to survive
Florence and the Machine - Cosmic Love
A falling star fell from your heart and landed in my eyes
I screamed aloud, as it tore through them, and now it's left me blind
The stars, the moon, they have all been blown out
You left me in the dark
No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight
In the shadow of your heart
And in the dark, I can hear your heartbeat
I tried to find the sound
But then it stopped, and I was in the darkness,
So darkness I became

--Do the summary
-Do the Western Civ reading
--At least get the header done for the weekly bio
--including bedsheets
-Audiofic, which is the only acceptable non-homework use of a computer
-Find camera
--This may necessitate cleaning part of the room
-Wii Fit (no excuses, I've skipped the past two days)
-Get another 200 words on one of my two WIPs
---If I finish one, I get a bubble bath as a reward. If not, just a shower.
Okay. That's four complicated things, four fairly straightforward things, and one thing I may already have done if I saved the right picture on my other computer. Assuming I wake up around 2pm, I could have half this list done by sundown. If you guys see me fucking around on LiveJournal, yell at me, would you?
- Mood:
will be busy!
I have about half of my to do list done. I woke up later than I expected so I'm still basically on time with my tasks, I guess. I'm going to go Wii Fit before I start my Western Civ homework... but I think I'm going to do an audiofic before I do that. But first I have to go move my sister's laundry over so I can start my own.
Ooh, busybusybusy.

What's your middle name?
What does it mean? Where did your parents get it? Do you like it or hate it?
Is it common or weird? Does it flow with the rest of your name?
My middle name is Marie. It means "bitter" and it's supposed to be for my paternal grandmother whose name is Mary. I'm glad my parents didn't use Mary. Danielle Mary just doesn't sound as good as Danielle Marie.
Marie is one of the most common female middle names. It always irritated me as a child to find another girl with my middle name, because it happened all the time. I bet at least eight people out of the ~200 on my flist have my middle name.
If I ever adopt children, I have two names set to go: Colin Jeffrey and Gabrielle Elizabeth. Jeffrey would be continuing my family's morbid habit of recycling the names of dead siblings, and Elizabeth is my sister Rachael's middle name and I just like it.
I don't know what got me thinking about this, but I hope it's an interesting enough topic to get a reaction!

Also I am excited about finishing the first of three audiofics for

I got most of my to-do list done today, so I'm pleased with myself. I have to wait for my laundry to finish so I can make my bed, and then I am going to take a Xanax in lieu of an actual sleeping pill because I didn't get to sleep until like 7:30 this morning and that shit just will not fly for another night.
Tomorrow I have my Western Civ reading and paper to do, and then I can start on picspamming my life because I found my camera, hooray!
Now, while I'm waiting for my laundry I am going to play with this White Collar photoshoot picture and see if I can't make a half-decent header out of it. I'm ready for a new layout. :D
