Mnn...what a good weekend so far. Had a great time at the party last night, then this morning was probably the cutest of all cute mornings. :-) I like my boy! Me and Jacob drove up here this afternoon and ate at the New Yorker, this really fabulous place that my parents have loved for years. Great subs. Afterwards we went to the mall and I got a lot of cool stuff. I needed a new wallet, so I got that, but I also indulged a bit and got a kick ass black and pink studded belt, pink fishnet gloves, some black & glow in the dark bracelets, and finally a Slytherin wristband. I also found a pretty cool thing that was just screaming out for me to buy it for somebody. I wrote a few weeks ago about how I got a care package in the mail from one of my friends, so I'm getting ready to send one back with a few things, too. :-D

Other than that, a pretty chill evening. I think me and John might go see "Saw" tomorrow night. Then Tuesday...the dreaded day of destruction. Not the voting. Just the dentist.

...and I'm still here. I was scheduled out at 5, but I noticed immediately that I'd have to stay till at least 6 to take out some equipment out of the room next door, and they're now running over. *sigh*

I've done everything I can possibly do - cleaned up the office, carted up equipment for the next few days, surfed all my usual internet places...so bored...

I wanna go be with my boy now.

So I literally went to bed at like 9 last night. I'm still tired today, but at least this is it for awhile. After I get off of work I'll be heading down to see my Jacob, and the cute thing is that we'll have an extra hour to be together, lol! Yay for Standard time change...

Things have been pretty quiet here. I'm basically sitting around to make sure a conference call connects correctly, then I have a few more rooms to set for this weekend and early next week. I'm so glad that I have three days off. Even if one of them is going to be spent getting my mouth fixed. Yech.

Wow, people get really lost around here.

Anyways, been working on RAM some more. I'm making a staff / street team section for us to use to keep up to date with things...this should make coordinating efforts and updates easier. Right now it's getting harder to keep up with tour dates and news, so I've made a page just with direct links to band information. We'll see how that goes. I'll probably set up some blogs for us to use so we can coordinate what we're doing. Plus have a "promo" section with tools and links to get this out there...

Song of the Day: Tripleside - "Walking Through Fire" www.tripleside.net

Mine is the hot one in the middle with the mic. *snuggles*

So my nerves are shot. I got down to VT last night to visit Jacob and realized I was shaking from yesterday's work shift(*coughhellcough*), and when I woke up this morning, hey, I still am. I'm wondering how I'm going to put up this cradle screen in the next hour.

Anyways, Wednesday was fun! Me and John went to the Irish pub downtown where I had the best black & tan made for me. No prebottled stuff here; this was the real thing, mixed right there. Good stuff. We stayed there for awhile, then went over to his place and chilled some more, just talking about whatever. Very cool dude. Plays a lot of music, too. So I'll probably be spending more time with him later on.

I guess that's about it. Now on to my twelve hour shift.

Song of the Day: Lunarclick* - "Perfect" www.myspace.com/radioactivemusic

So if you ever need to get professional photos done, don't go to Wally World. Me and Jacob are trying to get some done for his grandma, so we went last week to check it out. They were busy, that was cool, so we made an appointment for yesterday. We got there about 20 minutes early, so we waited around while the dude finished up the kid he was working with. He finished about 5 minutes after our appointment time, but come to find out, he still had to do the other child of this woman he was working with. We asked how long it was going to take, he said however long it took him, so we shopped for awhile, came back, and waited for another 40 minutes before finally leaving. What terrible service. I tried to find a manager but couldn't, so their gonna be getting a nice letter from me this week. I don't have time for that.

However, the day improved. Afterwards I dropped Jacob off at WUVT to do his show. He had Jupiter Sunrise on as guests to play some songs, which rocked. I had gone over to hang out with Dana for awhile, so we listened in as I showed him some blog stuff then chilled for awhile. After the show, we went back to the 423 and ate dinner with the band (Drew makes good spaghetti, btw) and Jacob started teaching me how to play a very wierd video game that is very addicting. I feel cool now, lmao. We went over to the venue, and after several incidents (hehehe - cute! Love you!) that proved I'm actually a worthwhile manager and not just the "girlfriend of the lead singer" the night kicked off.

Now, ok, wow. This isn't just me saying this because I love my Jacob. The band rocked. Going full band and electric was just phenomenal. So much energy, so much life in that set now. And Jacob surprised me; he had told me they weren't going to do Running Awake because they hadn't practiced it, but secretly they had - even if Jeff did accidentally give it away during sound check, lol. Mike was there filming the set, too, and I'm so glad he did - Jacob's doing a class project where he's going to be making a music video for Closer to the Shore, and might be using some of that footage from last night in it. I hope he does, because, wow...totally unexpectedly he came out of his shell and just went off on on that song. (Lol, he's not gonna like this part) He's usually a shy person, so he kinda keeps everything inward during shows. But last night, he opened his eyes and really started to sing to the audience - it's like the mini-Jay Gordon inside of him was starting to come out. Hehehe - I've never been more proud to be dating him. I couldn't tell you how hot he was singing last night. *kisses*

So now I'm back to the boredom that is my job. *sigh* Got a few good emails last night, though. More good stuff coming from RAM soon. Maybe will have a few distro deals shortly. 'Bout time.

Song of the Day: Tripleside - "Closer To The Shore" www.tripleside.net

And yet another thing I forgot: I weighed myself last night randomly and I've lost another 3 pounds. That's 13lbs total since I started working here. No wonder my pants don't fit anymore.

I forgot to mention this earlier, but I got an email from Jeremiah this morning. He's been doing well, but his grandmother passed away right after he left. It sounds like he at least got to spend time with her beforehand, which is good. And she was a very nice lady - she always offered us food and such whenever I was around; typical grandmothery stuff. :-) So, my thoughts and prayers are with my big brother today. *hugs*

I had the most phenomenal baked potatoe at work. Get this: completely plain. Just a damn good potatoe with no butter, salt, sour cream, nothing. It was a very wierd thing.

I saw this on Corrie's blog and was intrigued. I never knew Corrie worked at an archeaology dig. So did I. How did we not ever know this about each other? Anyways, here's a listing of all the places I've ever worked, volunteer or otherwise:

Summer Girl Scout Camp Counselor
Volunteer Archeaologist @ Poplar Forest
Stage Crew @ Lynchburg Civic Auditorium
Decorative Painter - Artisan of Blacksburg, and self-employed
Lifegaurd @ Assistant Swim Coach @ OLN Roanoke
Lighting & Set Technician @ VT Summer Arts Festival
Record label intern
Webdesign, self-employed
Props Assistant & Scenic Artist @ UFO Utah
Tech Specialist @ HRCC

Crazy. Nice to know I've never had to flip burgers, though...

So tomorrow is going to rock. Me and Jacob are gonna go get the pics done finally, then while he's hosting the coolest radio show ever, I'm gonna be helping Nad (hopefully) get some web stuff done, and maybe by tomorrow I'll be ready to Linux-ize my old computer. Then tomorrow evening it's dinner with the band, and then the show. My goal is to sell every piece of merch we own. This show is going to rock. Tripleside is going full band - they've got a new drummer that kicks ass, and our friend Jeff is filling in on bass. Rehearsals are sounding sooooooo good. But in other news, we need a practice space now since the neighbors don't seem to appreciate this as much as I do, so if anyone has any leads to someplace cheap, or better yet, a kind soul gracious to the enabling of the arts for free, lemme know.

Then Wednesday should be fun. I just ran into the one dude at work that I had made plans to hang out with, and we're gonna go get a beer after work. So maybe finally I'll start making some new friends here were I freakin' live...

*sigh* Back to work...

I figured I'd take these 20 minutes before I head on to my 11 hour shift of doom to write. Not that anything I say is going to describe how I feel better than those lyrics from yesterday.

I remember one morning in May, driving back from Tazewell to class and knowing that would be the last time. I used to get mad at Lance because he stopped writing about me in his blog.

I woke up last night about an hour later and wanted to call you again but I was too afraid of telling you what's really been eating away at me these past few days.

Inside my head there's a vision of you
And nothing's changing
Nothing's changing
Nothing's changing
Maybe it's not me
It's all inside my head
Maybe it's not me
It's all inside my head
And nothing's changing
It's all inside my head
And nothing's changing
It's all inside my head

"Welcome home," she said to me
"Let's hide away before they see
I need so much to be alone with you
I do, I do."
"Come with me," she took my hand.
"Please try to help me understand."
So pointless when my heart has turned to stone
I know, I know.
"I wish we could," she whispered near
"Go someplace far away from here."
While hoping that small voice would disappear
that said 'Welcome to the end.'

Ok, now that I'm back from the dead (sort of...basically I got sick so I now have time to post) here's some updates:

Radio-Active-Music.com: New server, new forum, new buttons. Head on over to sign up for the message board (a real one finally) and show me the love. Thanks to Lee for the awesome server & support - if you need webspace hit him up...it's so worth it. Also, my buttons came in, so come find me and I'll give you one. Or if you wanna give me 50 cents or something that's cool too. I've also got some songs streaming on the myspace profile...thanks to Lunarclick* and Anjeliina for hooking me up!

Social Life: So after my emotional fall-outs last week I realized that one major problem is that I have no social life outside of Jacob anymore, and that's really a problem - when I can't see him, it's bad enough, but that means I'm not doing anything either. So within the last week I've started meeting new people and starting to make plans on getting my own "posse" here in Roanoke. It's about time to stop living in Blacksburg, eh? I met a few cool guys at the theatre this week, then sometime next week I'll be chillin and getting a beer with one of the dudes in another department at work who seems to be someone cool to get to know. So things are looking up.

Jacob: He's cute. And I like him! *snuggles* If I'm feeling better tomorrow we're going to go get professional pictures done to send to his family. Hehe...we're silly!

Other music stuff: I will be at the Tripleside show Tuesday, so everyone else better be there too! Also, there are a lot of new songs available...one of them being the Lunarclick* song I have up (but you'll have to go to their myspace profile to actually dl it) and it is sooooo good. On top of that, Booboo's Punch has a few new songs up for their new album, and their amazing! You have to go get them! Right now.

Ok, so that's about it...show me the love and sign up on my forum. http://www.radio-active-music.com/board/

What a crazy weekend, full of nervous break downs. *sigh* I think I'm feeling a bit better, but this week is going to be long. But I do wanna take this time to thank Mike for driving Jacob all the way to Salem to comfort his psycho girlfriend. Heh.

Other than that, not much else going on. Had a long day of load-in and cuing for Antigone, but it seems to be going pretty well.
I'll be there all week whenever I'm not here.

I think the biggest surprise of the weekend was coming home and finding that my parents had bought me three shirts on their vacation, all of which both fit and are something I would like to wear. I think they might actually be getting to know me, lmao.

Also, had three good things mentioned to me concerning work in the past two days, so it looks like I've got at least three shots of things improving sometime soon.

Song of the Day: Lani - "Inside Of Me" www.myspace.com/lani

Caution: another driving rant. Possibly the worst yet.

So, let's take a poll here. Who knows that state law requires drivers to pull over to the side of the road and stop whenever an emergency vehical is passing? IN BOTH LANES. The only time this doesn't apply is when the road is divided by a barrier. So I'm driving home, and here come two ambulances and fire trucks at me, so I pull into the right lane and stop. One dude goes flying by me in the left lane, and the other guy behind me stops at first, then honks at me and passes. WHAT THE FUCK? How did you people pass your driving tests? I hope one day when you guys need some sort of emergency help, some jackass like you delays them. Jesus.

So Jacob is back in the studio on the one night I have off (figures), so I'm on my own yet again. I've decided to go out and get a big bottle of bacardi and treat myself to some new make-up. Which should be an adventure in itself seeing that most make-up has metal in it these days. *sigh*

Tomorrow I officially go into dry tech, so I more than likely will be out of touch with everyone for the rest of the week. Whenever I'm not at work I'll be in rehearsal, so, yeah. Talk to you all, um, Friday if I'm lucky...

HAHAHAHAHA....


Which File Extension are You?


Which OS are You?


Which Nigerian spammer are You?

So I'm scheduled in at 7 this morning, and by 7:15 one group has cancelled their AV equipment, and the other has yet to show up. I get the distinct feeling there was no reason at all for me to be here this early. *sigh*

At 5:42 this morning, Jacob called. I freaked out when my phone rang, thinking something must be horribly wrong for him to call this early in the morning. Actually, he thought I'd be getting up at 5:30, so he stayed awake from last night's show to talk to me. Very cute, even though he was 3 minutes too early, lol.

Oh hey, my buttons shipped yesterday! So hopefully I'll get those first thing next week. Jacob's my first button pre-orderer (I'm giving this batch away, actually, unless anyone else really wants to give me 50 cents or something), even though Corrie beat him out to be my first paying sponser. Her ad is up on RAM now, along with the pictures from the Celldweller / 51 Peg show. You should check it out, along with my Corrie appreciation post on the message board.

Song of the Day: Celldweller - "Switchback" www.celldweller.com

Step #1 towards redemption, new site design: www.laurahofford.com

Ok, so now that I've taken a shower and cried for a good while, I guess I've come to some understandings. So...me and Jacob, well, didn't really fight...it consisted mostly of my being really upset and just completely unable to talk anymore. I thought I was mad at him, but in reality, I know that in all honesty, the only thing that really gives me happiness and comfort these days is him. I mean, sometimes RAM does too, but other times it's just a sad reminder of how little I've been able to accomplish.

The truth is, I really resent myself. I've sold out and settled on so many levels. I graduated and all of those ideals I had just faded in the way of sensibility and finances. I mean, we all pretend we're self-sufficient in college, but I think the truth is whether we realize it or not is that in the back of our minds we always know that if the worst comes, daddy's gonna be there to foot the bill.

Well, that's not the case now. I'm making enough money to be on my own. Barely. How am I ever going to make this change?

I wish I could just say 'fuck it' and go. But all these thoughts about insurance, rent, gas money, retirement...they keep creeping in. And the feeling of responsibility and guilt towards my coworkers in this awful situation is overwhelming.

I'm working on a project that supports bands. People who have said 'fuck it' and have followed their dreams. But I'm too chicken to do it myself.

So I heard from Jeremiah today - things are going REALLY well for him, which is awesome. They like him so much that they've already promoted him to Production Manager, which includes a raise and better living arrangements, lol. So that's very cool. I'm happy for my big brother!

Today has been annoyingly busy...lots of calls for small problems. Finally had some time to sit down for a bit. But, lunch is ending, so I need to go clock back in...

Meh. I had to wake up at 5:15 this morning. Why in the world am I in this job?

Anyways, yay! Sarah IM'd me last night and wants to be on staff for RAM, so that rocks. I spent part of the evening doing some tweaking to the message board, so you should go over there. Not really to see the tweaks, but to just up my board counts. Corrie visits everyday, so you should too!

Oh, and while I'm at it:

Me and Klayton of Celldweller. What a cool show. I've 'processed' the actually photos from the show and have 8 of 51 Peg and 7 of Celldweller to go up, so I should have those on RAM soon.

So...I'm feeling very isolated lately. Probably because I'm so damn busy all I do is work. Just this time talking on the phone or over IM doesn't help. I just want to be cuddled...*pouts*

Song of the Day: Lunarclick* - "Good Enough" www.lunarclick.com

I guess what I meant to say with "fading out of life" is that I'm fading out of everyone else's life. I'm still here...

Do you ever feel like you've become so busy that you've just faded out of life?

In other news, Lani got back to me with her songs, and WOW. Go to myspace and listen to her. It's like Goth and rock, but not goth rock. It's crazy good. Sorta like an Evanescence meets Celtic folk. Very cool. We should have her site up soon.

Song of the Day: Lani - "Everdream" www.myspace.com/lani

Let's see how many things can break in the course of a week.

Woke up this morning and the DSL was out. Damn thunderstorms. Finally got that back up, and fortunately my DNS cache propagated, so I can see my site again. Then Lance IM's me out of the blue, close to delirious from lack of sleep. So the morning wasn't a complete disaster, rotflmao. Yeah...I'm gonna go put up some pipe and drape now, lmao.

Song of the Day: Orgy - "Pure" www.punkstatikparanoia.com

Sometimes, the days just suck.

I thought today would be good, since I didn't need to be in until 2. So while I got a lot of sleep, I woke up and found my website wasn't working, and though it seems to be online again, thanks to the infinite construction of XP, my DNS cache won't resolve so I can't do a damn thing - from checking my email to updating RAM. *sigh*

Then I go downstairs to grab my lunch for work and find that the freezer has bit the dust, so now I have no food in my house. This is going to be a fun week I can tell.

I get to work, and well...ok, since I have no idea who reads this anymore, I'll just say that while I try to be understanding of people and their needs and insecurities, there comes a point where you just need to leave me alone.

In other news, Jacob is cute.

Song of the Day: Celldweller - "Switchback" www.celldweller.com

I usually fill out the "song of the day" crap before I write my blog, and I know that I really just need to make an "I'm too lazy to upload cd covers" icon for all of these new songs I'm listening to. Anyways, this Celldweller song is on the Beta Cessions, which I just picked up this weekend, and it rocks.

Speaking of Celldweller, weekends, and rocking, the show was excellent. We got to Baltimore way ahead of schedule, but it was cool...eventually we got into the venue and Jacob met up with SNMNMNM (who rock because they guestlisted us) and I finally introduced myself to Klayton. He was a very cool dude. The show was great...SNMNMNM played a great show, even though it was the completely wrong line-up for them. But 51 Peg really enjoyed them, and I think a few in the crowd got into it, so it was cool. Spinebelt was pretty good, but maybe a bit overdriven. But compared to the other openers I've seen lately, hey, rock on. 51 Peg was amazing of course...Jeff did this crazy gargoyle crouching thing on the amps at one point that just was visually the coolest thing, especially with his eye make-up. I hope I got a good pic of that...I looked at my pictures briefly last night, and I think I got some good ones.

Celldweller rocked. They had a visually intensive show, which I'm sure would look better in a larger venue (The Royal was very snug...think cross between Attitudes and The Cellar...but overall I really dug the place, and the owner seemed to be a cool dude. Props to him. I need to link them up on RAM. I like venues that are good to bands. Yeah.) but it was cool in any case. Very dancable and hard out rock...what a great combination. I haven't moved like that so much in my life. Afterwards I got my pic taken with Klayton, and me and Jacob headed on back to his mom's.

The next day was very chill. We met Jacob's dad's half of the family at a very very nice Italian place for lunch. It was a huge, multi-coursed sit down meal, and I had probably the best salmon in my life. I think everyone liked me. Well, I'm fairly certain no one outright hated me, but I guess we'll see, eh? It was one of the more nerve racking things I've done in awhile. Ah well.

So, I'm back at work. Today starts my several weeks of no life - work in the morning, rehearsal at night. After I get done here I've gotta grab a bit of food and head over to VWCC and start sitting in on Antigone...

Song of the Day: Celldweller - "Goodbye" www.celldweller.com

Ok, so I've got a new blog. It's like a cross between this one and Duplicating the Obvious...meaning it's music news and stuff, but more opinionated and random. Go to www.radio-active-music.com and click on "blog" Let me know what you think!

Ok, dumbest driving thing EVER: I got cut off by two motorcycles this afternoon coming home from work. Ok, I don't care how big and bad your Harley is, my SUV is still going to win. Hell, my friends Focus is going to win. I mean, what the fuck are they thinking?

Anyways, had a pretty decent day at work. Chris came back and is actually doing pretty well, so that's cool. Then Polanah was there today for a convention, so I got to talk to him for a few minutes. It was really cool seeing him again. He was such a great professor, even if I personally think he should be a runway model, heh.

So I have to go pack in a few to get ready for both this concert and meeting Jacob's entire family. *Panics* I feel more nervous about this weekend than I do for most shows I do.

Song of the Day: Fluffy Starr - "Find Me (demo)" www.fluffystarr.com

I had a post the other day I wrote in my delerium that I never got to publish due to either Blogger being down or me being away from the internet, but here are some thoughts to chew on that I just couldn't let go unposted:

1) While I consider Jimi Haha to be a lyrical genius, you know he's just asking for Wierd Al to do a cover of a song with the lyrics "It's hard to keep from falling out." in it.

2) As I was driving home Monday it occured to me that that was the first time in what, four or five days that I had seen the light of day.

Anyways, I got my hands on the new William Shatner album, and wow. If you need a good laugh, this is the cd for you. With songs similiar to "I'm An Asshole" and "Cows With Guns", you just can't go wrong. He spends about half of the album making fun of himself - the title is "Has Been", and the song by the same name is just rediculous. And anyone who experiences road rage or generic disgust over dumb things/people will appreciate the following song...because, well, "I just can't get behind that!" But some of the other songs are more personal, and I know I for one, in the midst of questioning my career goals, found some ironic inspiration in hearing someone I know so well in the entertainment industry speak about failure and insecurity. Anyways.

I did get the weekend off, so that means I'm going home with Jacob to meet the family for his grandma's birthday. We'll also be hitting the 51 Peg / Celldweller show, so I'm going to email Klayton and tell him I'm coming. Derek says he's gonna try coming too, so there's the whole Fluffy Starr webteam in full effect. Hehe...I wonder if he does "Frozen" if I can sing Fluffy's part? He's probably got that in a bed track already, but it's fun to think about, lol.

Updated RAM last night. Fluffy's interview is up, and updated the links & dates sections.

Chris comes back to work tomorrow, so I'll guess we'll see how this goes...

Song of the Day: Celldweller - "Frozen" www.celldweller.com

I wrote a pretty good blog entry last night, but it's on my computer (I'm on B's comp at the moment, since I don't have wireless access here at VWCC) and blogger was down last night.

Anyways, it's been a good day. Got like 11 hours of sleep last night because I freakin' went to bed at 9 last night. The show's gone very well, and I don't even have to run the lights - their dude is doing it - so I'm just sitting here, racking up hours. Alllllllriiiiiiiiight.

Got my script and floor plan for Antigone, so I start on that next week. Also heard some good news from several bands today, so that rocks. That guy, Jak, who's working with me on RAM is now Club Decease's manager, so that rocks. I hope maybe they'll come out here to play some.

And then again... This Saturday. 51 Peg & Celldweller in Baltimore. If I'm actually off work and can convince Jacob to join me...

"I am so tired" doesn't even begin to describe. I have knots in my back that are so large that I can feel them when I lean back in my chair. Where's my big brother now? *sigh*

So I'm brushing my teeth last night, trying to get these piece of pepper or something off my tooth when I realize it's not coming off. It's a freaking cavity. How did I go from not seeing anything to this scary and I'm sure soon to be painful hole in my mouth? So now, on top of everything else I need to do, I need to find a damn dentist and pay large sums of money to get this fixed, since of course, my dental plan is ineffective in this area.

Anyways, today is the 14+ hour day at work. Got here at 5:40...will be out of here at 7 at the earliest. I don't even know what my schedule is tomorrow.

I just wanna go to Blacksburg and cuddle with my boy.

Here we go again...

Sunday November 14th 2004
Columbus, Ohio - The Billiard Club
The Birthday Massacre
Deadstar Assembly
EDIT: According to DSA, also add Celldweller and Crossbreed. Alllllllllllllrigggggggggght!

Who wants to go? (Hey, it's closer than the Cleveland Orgy show.)

And yes, today is October 2nd. Me and Jacob have hit the three month mark. Crazy how fast the time goes! *kisses* Love you! We hung out unexpectedly for a bit last night, which was nice...watching drunk Tri-Delts attempt to dance. Jeff and Drew are my heros of the week, for effectively bastardizing every picture possible. This weekend, unfortunately, I am basically living, breathing, and eating work, and Jacob is in the studio. But hopefully once Tuesday and Wednesday roll around things will get back to somewhat normal. Tuesday is my dance show, and that should be a lot of fun...

Song of the Day: Orgy - "Social Enemies" www.punkstatikparanoia.com

So who else has discovered The Face Book yet? It's like a cross between myspace.com and classmates.com, where you have friends and profiles like myspace, but it's mainly catagorized by colleges. One very cool feature is that if you're in a relationship, and your significant other is on there, you can link directly to him or her...so on mine, it says "In a Relationship with Jacob Bock" with it linking to his profile. Cute!

We're out of cream here for the coffee. It's sad.

Fluffy seems to like the updated interface idea I had, so I'm going to load that hopefully this evening. And maybe finally update RAM.

Work isn't too bad...lots of rooms to set, so I better go get started. Maybe if I get out of here early I can go to Blacksburg. I don't like the idea of not seeing my boy for a week. He said last night he'd gotten the bus schedule and that the Blacksburg/Roanoke run made a stop right here at the hotel, so maybe he'll come see me one day. How cute will that be? Hehehe.

Oh yeah. Speaking of Julien-K, their mailing list morning made it clear that Orgy is not breaking up, Ryan and Amir are just taking time to get their songs finished. People get so worked up over nothing.
