Week 5 - Low Five

My grandma passed away at the very start of this week, right after midnight the 28th... or at least that's when we were notified. The realization that she was gone didn't actually dawn on me that night, and when I wrote my diary entry of the day, and an inspired song in tribute, I was feeling strangely apathetic. The day after the sun was shining, but there was no longer any escaping the rash reality: she was gone. I went about business as usual as possible, though not with my traditional efficiency, taking occasional breaks to write just one more song or poem (I think I wrote four of each). This one, turned out particularly well, I think. I said my farewell, and goodbye, felt better the next day, took a walk with a buddy on Friday and cheered up considerably. Thank you David! The week started sad (and cold), real low, but it hasn't been a bad week otherwise, it's just been slow.

I recently (now that January is over) posted an early aftermath on this years New Year's resolutions, checked back on the time-warp eighties hit Kung Fury, wrote six movie reviews, had something in my eye, thought, bought and didn't and had some issues with Google again, but not really. Also posted a batch of musical nostalgia.

I started watching Space Dandy yesterday, plowed through the four first episodes in a row, and the fifth today. Didn't want to get started cause I knew it was great dammit and now I am, as I expected, hooked. :/ Also caught up on 'The Walking Dead', and other anime but that's a weekly thing; goes without saying. Schoolwork is progressing slowly since I'm still waiting on a book from which I shall have to hand-in an assignment next week... and the first chapter of my I-shall-keep-the-theme-secret-for-now masterpiece that should before years end have turned into a full-fledged novel.

I've finally finished a logo design for a Finn & Jake Collab I'm working on, am working on some other stuff and stuff and... stuff? Oh, and I went through the Wayback Machine and ported over all of the earliest posts that have previously been lost in the haze of time. They're really not much to look at, but there is now an archive for 2004 (check the sidebar if you wish), and there's a gap around early 2005 that I'll fill in later on. Unfortunately no comments from that era remain, they were all linked to a series of forums that were either accidentally deleted or hacked, and not very-well indexed by the almighty Machine, but thats all part of the past. Onto the new, the next, the weak (cause that's how humanity is evolving)!

Last week.
