That CD is the SHIT man. It's excellent from start to finish.

As I listen to it, I can't help but feel that Sunset Shimmer would really dig Nirvana. It's like the west coast music equivalent of yin to Jackie's yang or something.

... I miss the 90s.

Finally, Nirvana's Teen Spirit music video has hit 1 billion views in about a decade. Kurt may have hated the song, but he'd be thrilled at the attention the song that launched his band into the spotlight gained!

Long live grunge and punk rock! Shame he wasn't here to witness it.

The insane life is the best life.

Being 'normal' is what makes us a boring, mundane species.

The crazy people you meet are the best friends you'll ever have.

The best friends you'll ever have are those who are in the same boat as you, be it for better or worse.

Be it better or worse, your friends will always have your back. They'll always be there for you, no matter what.

My go-to song, which was one of the first songs I learned how to play. I jam to it every time.

And then there's Breed, which is the song I play all the time when I want to rock it pretty hard and go mental on the strings.

Right, so I did mention that there was a guitar that I've been hunting down for two years since I knew they existed, but I never actually showed anybody a picture of it. Well, wait no longer! Here she is -

Hubby is home. I should be more upbeat, but he's busy with schoolwork. Ho hum...

Listening to some Nirvana on Pandora. Started a new station. Still working on it.

I'm so happy because today
I've found my friends
They're in my head
I'm so ugly, but that's okay, cause so are you
We've broken our mirrors
Sunday morning is everyday for all I care
And I'm not scared
Light my candles in a daze
Cause I've found god
Hey, hey, hey

There's an alternate history timeline I've been working on for AlternateHistory.com that got some real traction there. It got to a "completed" stage at the end of 2019, but has been continually expanded since, in terms of creating a new version, a Wiki/Fandom, and a collection of articles and press clippings on a FictionPress story. This expansion is going well, but my team and I need new members to join us. Thus, all of this is offered as a proposal that hopefully, some of you here might be

Nirvana's In Bloom alternate video to the official album version in Nevermind. Back before the fame truly hit and Kurt ended up slowly becoming more miserable as the fame crushed him. Still, this video is a really amazing piece of music for the time it was created in (Late 80's) and if you're a Nirvana fan like myself, you'll surely enjoy watching it!

People, not so long ago, I had a weird dream that follows something that I'm open to in future life. To say the least, the dream was unsettling and it hit me hard. I won't go into details, but I will say that I remember crying about it for a while. Yesterday, I sat down and opened up my poetry book again. Here's what I wrote -

Daughter - By Dan J. Ribe

From first glance, I fell into a love trance,
Amber eyes and gentle smile to resemble care,

Defect, defect,
Straight as an arrow,
Don't sleep in your fear,
Mayday,

Standin' on the stairs,
Cold, cold morning!
Don't sleep in your fear,

MAYDAY!

STRAIGHT AS AN ARROW,
DON'T SLEEP IN YOUR FEAR,
MAYDAY,
MAYDAY,
SO LOW,
SO LOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWW!

GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Since I'm going to be needing these songs for a writing session myself, I just thought I'd share these tonight. They're all instrumental. Some acoustic guitar, a cinematic song prominently featuring a music box, and a Nirvana cover with xylophones. Yes, really.

Hope you liked 'em!
