Got Anything Random To Say

Once I get started writing about languages I can't stop. I just now easily wrote a couple paragraphs on a language thread here, and had to force myself to stop before it turned into a dissertation on linguistic morphology.

(Appears) Hello, WrongPlanet!

Oh internet, how I've missed you so... I've spent several hours reading random linguistics-related articles and browsing IMDB.

I bough a big bonsai tree, today! ^_^ A Ficus retusa, to be precise. I just love it! It's so pretty, and its stem is like a spiral. I'm going to do everything I can to make it live as long as I do... hopefully, it outlives me by hundreds of years. :B

Even though it's cloudy outside, I'm wearing a pair
of cheap sunglasses in a public library.

Reason? Send me a PM and I will tell you.

Time for me to go! See you guys later! (Disappears)

I really hate liquid soap in restaurant bathrooms. It always has some horrible synthetic perfume and I can never rinse it off, and I smell it when I bring a bite of food to my mouth. If they have to give hand soap a scent, why not bacon?

I haven't posted a picture of myself for nearly a month. It's just the same old thing, anyways.

I have had the song "Lost Wind" by Helen Jane Long stuck in my head off and on for the past two or three days, especially the bit around 1 minute 30 seconds in where the piano melody starts looping the same handful of notes and the cello starts rhythmically doing staccato. (I can't believe I still remember what "staccato" is; the last time I took a class for string instruments was almost a decade ago!)

I love my new Basque Phonology book, it is very interesting.

I wish it rained every night. Nothing compares to falling asleep to the sound of heavy rain.

I chew gum every chance I get. Does that make me a chronic masticator?

I don't care what anyone else thinks, Lupe Fiasco's Lasers is a good album, not great, but still great music to be listening in the car on your way to the gym or running an errand. The beats are sappy and poppy, and don't feel more like pop than it does hip hop, but if you can get past the music production, the lyrics are still amazing and the message is uplifting. Particular happy songs that stand out are the Show Goes On,Coming Up, and All Black Everything, they actually put a smile on me and I'm a very cynical person. I wanna see Lupe the 3rd return the MC we seen on The Cool and Food and Liquor, but Lasers can hold me over until then.
