1. Flogging Molly kicks all sorts of ass. I have enjoyed other bands, and I love other bands -- but there is something about Flogging Molly's music that makes me just downright happy and WIRES me like caffeine IV to the brain. They are incredibly fun to watch live, because they exaggerate and make fun of themselves and others and worship Guiness and it's just wonderfully energetic. Even though we had to leave early to catch the bus, they played most of my favorites, including (and this makes me squee the most) "Devil's Dance Floor," which was totally the first song of theirs I ever heard and I still love it to pieces. PIECES DO YOU HEAR ME.
Of all the bands whose CDs I keep saying "I'll buy someday when I have money," Flogging Molly is the only one whose CDs I buy immediately upon finding, monetary status bedamned. XD
But the place was one of the most grouchiest places I have ever been to in Seattle. o_o I got frisked (because you know, small Asian girl in a big coat = so threatening!), ordered to throw away my leftovers (which I'd understand more if they served food but dude, they're located right next to Pike's Place Market and don't serve food) sniped at when I said I wanted to buy a coke ("well, we have Pepsi products, is that good enough for you?") and bellowed at when I stood on the steps for maybe thirty seconds trying to see the way to the exit.
The show was definitely worth it! But if it's at the Showbox again ... ehh, maybe not. >_>
2. Tech support? Sucks ass. I do sympathize that it's a lousy job, and one of my good friends is working a tech support job (hi,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
shadawyn!), but ... dude. When I am asking you this one question, please stop trying to explain all the steps to me. If I tell you "I know this much, is it that you do [A, B, C]?" please don't go on about steps "4, 5, 6."
Also, getting snide when I demonstrate that I am, in fact, a woman who KNOWS MORE ABOUT COMPUTERS THAN JUST POINTING AND CLICKING is not a way to win you points. Just because I am a girl who can use a computer does not mean I'm a threat to your masculinity. I promise.
3. My Biochemistry professor is EVIL. Both of them! However, based on some confusing wording about an e-mail he sent out about grades, I ... believe that the minimum I need is 66% of 85% of 400 total points to go on to the next class in the series. (I.e., the lowest percentage you need to get the "perfect" 4.0 is apparently about 85%. He says that you need about 2/3 of that to get the minimum grade needed to go on. I ... am above that by, like, 4%. GO FIGHT FANTASTIC! I need to keep this up. XO) I actually ended up skipping my quiz section today because ... well, we don't get that much done during those periods to begin with, though watch, TODAY will be the day he went over something that the prof won't during lecture. _o_ It happens. I'll harass classmate E for details tomorrow.
4. Holy lost in translation, Batman! I thought that 華 could be translated as "flower," but apparently I am WRONG WRONG WRONG. Would someone who knows better than me please to enlighten my foolish self?
5. ... mnahmnah.
EDIT 6. I still cannot listen to Hakkai's image song from the Saiyuuki movie without busting a rib laughing. It's a good thing no one else is in the office right now, because I swear, I am giggling like a fiend. XD PORN MUSIC AHOY, BAY-BEE.
