I'm pretty quick, but my problem is how I want to do EVERYTHING. EVERYTHING EVER. So it's this constant battle of prioritizing. I wanted to do more bbb in the first wave (I'm signed up for second wave, too), but I was literally right in the middle of the last few pieces I did and when I'm going, I'm... uh. Zealous. Might be a good word. The one I did for Hey Gravity!/An Inch From The Ground was basically eating up my brain until it was out on paper, and by then it was a couple of days to the bbb artist deadline. I'm hoping the second wave will give me more opportunity to push myself into working directly from the source material. ...Feel free to pressure me about this, it helps.
Yeah, like. ...Ugh, okay, I'm trying not to get super-wordy-opiniony here. Once the personal background stuff starts to play heavily into the story, I have serious trouble reading it as just a story and not some fangirl's agenda manifesto. I like that nice, safe wall of separation where it's still just fiction.
Yeah, the glee never wears off. Twelve years of going to every show I can (and living on the mainland/having some modicum of disposable income/time has greatly increased this statement), and I still start vibrating in place like a plasma molecule days in advance. I'm seeing Fun. and Panic! on Friday and then the Ataris unplugged with one of my favorite local Seattle bands, Man Without Wax, opening on Sunday. I'm actually more excited about MWW than anything. And this is after April when I saw MCR on a Friday, Travie McCoy on Saturday, and then flew to Chicago for Patrick Stump's first-ever solo show. HI. WELCOME TO MY OBSESSION. I hope for your sake Panic! does do some side shows. Screw festivals, there's no personality there. ...I could make some paper airplanes with helpful suggestions on the topic to chuck on stage tomorrow on your behalf?~
Hah, I got to work a couple hours ago, and then got sent out to retrieve my coworker so he could come in and sign for a controlled med he missed this morning, so now we're sitting in a coffee shop parking lot so I can jack to wifi to write this. I'll respond more when I get home in like, a million 8 hours.
