Tonight was a good one... Yet again - bad, or at least twitchy day, tends to translate to good evening.

I left work around two today because I couldn't see well out of my left eye any more. This accompanied by, oh, the blinding pain of someone making julienne fries out of my brainmeats led me to think that maybe going home wasn't the worst idea in the world. :P yay me, fisher price my second migraine, whoo hoo. Once home, I got fussed over by [livejournal.com profile] morlock, who came bearing chicken tempura, caffeine, Excedrin and orders to get some rest. Which I did.

Six o'clock, I was feeling quite a bit better, and armed with contributions to the cause from all sides, I made dinner for [livejournal.com profile] sydneycat, [livejournal.com profile] anzovin, [livejournal.com profile] sundart and [livejournal.com profile] htl_1126... It had been over a year since I'd actually made dinner for more than just me that didn't come straight out of a box, and somehow bustling about the stove this evening was quite relaxing and happy, plus everyone liked my food. Spent the rest of the evening getting work done, watching the wrasslin, since it was moved to Thursday this week, horrifying htl and s'cat with www.gunthernet.com (I'm glad there are still people I can horrify with Gunther's collagen enhanced Euro trash pop), and making both this icon and another to go with the other two wrestling icons I've done (though this one was at [livejournal.com profile] sydneycat's request).

It seems that every year, most likely because of effective use of music, a movie trailer grabs me by the virtual balls and refuses to let go. This time last year it was the one for Sin City and the accompanying song ("Cells" by the Servant), this year it's Milla Jovovich Saves the World Yet Again and Looks Damn Sexy Doing It Ultraviolet and the song at the end of that ("24" by Jem). Dr00l. Give me a rock/pop/techno song that through sampling or good orchestration includes some quality string work, and I'll show you a girl having herself a bit of an aural orgasm... while wistfully wishing she had time to take up the violin again.

Long day tomorrow, two big things that need to be done work wise, MomZ's coming to visit, and whew. I'd best be crashing.

Grok. I *love* hearing real instruments in my rock/pop. For strings and rock, certainly "Silent Lucidity" comes to mind for one of the all-time astral projection through rock songs.
