Make It Mine by Jason Mraz
Make It Mineby Jason MrazWake up everyone How can you sleep at a time like this? Unless the dreamer is the real you Listen to your voice The one that tells you to taste past the tip of your tongue Leap and the net will appear I don't wanna wake before The dream is over I'm gonna make it mine Yes, I... I wanna own it I'm gonna make it mine Yes, I'll make it all mine I keep my life on a heavy rotation Requesting that it's lifting you up Up, up and away And over to a table at the gratitude café And I am finally there And all the angels they'll be singing Ah la la la ah la la la I la la la la love this Well, I don't wanna break before the tour is over I'm gonna make it mine That's right, I... I wanna own it I'm gonna make it mine Yes, I'll make it all mine Yes I will make it all mine And timing's everything, and this time there's plenty I am balancing, Careful and steady, And reveling in energy that everyone's emitting Well, I don't wanna wait no more Oh, I wanna celebrate the whole world I'm gonna make it mine Because I'm following your joy I'm gonna make it mine Because I... I am opened I'm gonna make it mine That's right... I wanna show it I'm gonna make it, it mine gonna make, gonna make, gonna make, gonna make, gonna make, make it, make it mine (I'll make it mine) yes, mine (I'll make it mine) yes, mine (I'll make it mine) oooh mine Yes, I will make it all, make it all mine Yes, I will make it all mine. |

Jupiter II
Found this light test on You Tube. A modeler is testing the lights on his Jupiter II model. Very cool, and just like the hero prop. |

Not doing what I'm supposed to be doing
I'm supposed to be working on the Capricious drawing but I can't find my original sketch. Rrrr. Instead I...Made a pattern for a Celtic knot heart suncatcher, did 3 loads of laundry, scrubbed the tub, did dishes, shoveled snow, took out the garbage and recycling, had a nap, made sammiches, watched Dr. Who, watched Hair, and wrote this post. Tomorrow I clean my desk so maybe I can find that sketch. |

Christmas haul
What I got this Christmas:  Books: - The Metamorphoses of Tintin, or Tintin for Adults by Jean-Marie Apostolidès
- Cocktail Boothby's American Bar-Tender by William T. "Cocktail" Boothby ("Endorsed by all Clubmen and Mixologists")
CDs- The Ventures - Walk Don't Run: The Best of The Ventures
- Devin Townsend - Ziltoid the Omniscient
- Vijay Iyer Trio - Historicity
and a Slinky. Also, new suits in preparation for an upcoming job interview. Not shown because I'll be picking them up on Tuesday. I got my dad several jazz CDs: The Man Who Cried Fire by Rahsaan Roland Kirk, Guitar by McCoy Tyner (featuring Bela Fleck, Bill Frisell, Marc Ribot, John Scofield, and Derek Trucks), and a box set of Sonny Stitt (with booklet by Harvey Pekar). For my mom it was books: the Oxford Book of English Verse, Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell by Susanna Clarke, and Ursula Vernon's Irrational Fears. Dinner was our traditional Christmas spread: roast beef, Yorkshire pudding, stuffed mushrooms, and creamed spinach garnished with hard-boiled egg yolks and toast stars. This year mom supplemented the usual menu with homemade dinner rolls. Dessert was a trifle made with custard, pound cake, sherry, sour cherry jam, and Cherry Heering. I hope you all had a merry Christmas! Current Mood:  happy |

rob review 15
ROB REVIEW NO PRE HYPE I forgot Punisher 12 love the plot but I HAVE problems recommending it because this story has a strange paradox. You only get the full effect if you KNOW YOUR Marvel. I DO But knowing what I know a lot of this story and ALL the art just feel off. TONY Moore is a good artist but I don’t like pointless redesigns Morbus scared the crap out of me as a kid. More’s Morbius could use a sandwitch still I LIKE where I THINK this is going POSSIBLE spoiler I THINK the main bad guy is BLOODSTONE. Bloodstone the guy whose like the punisher age 1 million. Doctor voodoo orgin THE First 3 brother voodoos A lot of online critics can’t get past how 1970s the writing is. Once again children I’m sorry but time exists. IT is 1970s writing and oh my god there’s a third person narration and no hulk-sex!” But Len Wien created one hell of a character with a good reason to be a superhero “Pardon me but my brother’s ghost wont shut up” Even if you can argue with the writing…three words Gene colon art. Nobody can argue with that Even the rather lightweight framing device is cool. Hats off to modern marvel for printing something that basically makes everything they’ve done under jq look like monkey poo. |

Post-Christmas
Mmm, Christmas. I made quinoa and mushroom pie flavored with dry vermouth, thyme and sage bechemel sauce. (I modified a Bon Appetit recipe for mushroom quinoa risotto, put it a pie crust, and gave it a sauce.) Eet was deelicious. Brian and I were pretty exhausted of buying stuff so we only got small presents for each other. My family was astounded by my impressive proportions. I don't know if I'm going to make it to my baby shower. After next week, though, I'm off work and resting. I feel like I waited a bit too long to do this, but I had stuff to do, you know? I just approved some proofs last week. But the way I feel now, I can't even imagine working on Monday. All I want to do is loll around. I'm passing the time by reading Ulysses. My Kindle tells me I'm 6% finished with it. |

TV Reminder: Dr. Who tonight (in America)
http://pwbeat.publishersweekly.com/blog/2009/12/26/tv-reminder-dr-who-tonight-in-america/ 
If you’re in the Colonies on Boxing Day and missed the first part of David Tennant’s last episode of Doctor Who, remember you can watch it tonight on BBC America (9 PM ET).
Non-Spoiler Review: Can the Moffat Era please get here already? Part one of “The End of Time” had all the things that fans have grown tired of from the Russell T Davies era (ponderous narration, cutesy aliens). Thank goodness for the wonderful performances by Tennant, John Simm (great scenery chewing as The Master) and Bernand Cribbins as Wilf.
The second part of “The End of Time” concludes next week on New Year’s Day in the UK and the next day on BBC America, when we presumably will get our first look at Matt Smith as Doctor number 11.
Update: BBC America will run a super marathon of David Tennant episodes starting at midnight on January 1. Starting with “The Xmas Invasion,” BBCA will show a Tenth Doctor episode every hour until showing “The End of Time, Part One” at 6:45 on January 2, following by the premiere of “The End of Time, Part Two.”
Also, there’s a clip for next week’s episode already circulating on the net (specifically on Youtube).

From the Exact Middle of Nowhere
http://journal.neilgaiman.com/2009/12/from-exact-middle-of-nowhere.html posted by Neil
Waving from the Middle of Nowhere, where there's no TV, my cell phone doesn't work and the internet is slow and klunky enough that semaphore might be more efficient.
Statuesque aired last night on Sky 1. I didn't see it. Didn't get to see the first part of the last David Tennant Doctor Who either. ( Statuesque is currently available on Sky Anytime, for UK Sky subscribers, until the 31st of Dec. Look it up under the title of "Ten Mintue Tales") (Yes, Mintue. I know they mean Minute, but that's what it's up as right now.)
On the other hand, we got a few hour's sunlight today. I saw some of that. And yesterday we went for a walk and, using map coordinates and the GPS Mike's amazing new Google Cell Phone (aka Dogfood) we found a Viking stone circle. And I'm cooking a lot on the Aga. My favourite present was one my children had clubbed together to get me: a painting of my dog, by artist Kelli Bickman. They know I love Kelli's stuff, and figured that I would be made happy by a painting of Cabal by her. And I am, very happy indeed.
Anyway. I hope you had a very happy Boxing Day, and that all your boxes belong to you.
