A soundtrack for rewriting AMLOR. My parents have gone to China (I'm totes jelly) so I'm taking advantage of having an empty house. Blasting music, strutting around naked, you know the drill.
(Apologies if I accidentally made any of you picture me naked.)
1. Exile Vilify - The National
2. I'm Only Happy When It Rains - Garbage
3. Why Do You Love Me - Garbage
4. Kodou - Dir en grey
5. Little by Little - Radiohead
6. Lovefool - The Cardigans
7. I Wanna Be Sedated - The Ramones
8. Supervixen - Garbage
9. Push It - Garbage
10. Andrew in Drag - The Magnetic Fields
As you can see, there's more than enough Garbage in there. For some reason they are the voice of AMLOR's Toshiya. I don't know what to think about that.
Also, slight spoiler: in order to write a recent chapter of AMLOR, I had to fucking google 'best ways to have sex in a car'. I HOPE YOU'RE HAPPY.
Also today, facebook is giving me "your account is temporarily unavailabe; please check back in a few hours" notices. Obviously I'm freaking the fuck out, as I'm a child of the golden age of technology, and without facebook I start to visibly go through withdrawals - shaking, frantic swearing, stomping on thriving plant life, etc.
I already miss my student house a bit. I don't know why, because it's frankly disgusting and overrun with unusual wildlife (we have begun making up backstories for all the animals that get inside our house, particularly the slugs). The problem is that the house was 'built' by somebody very drunk in the 1930s, so the walls aren't so much walls as holey pieces of supporting shit, with the occasional brick thrown in for luck. Our house is not really a shelter from the elements, but more a meeting place for wildlife. Sometimes squirrels come in to get out of the rain, which is adorable but probably quite unsanitary.
But whatever, I live upstairs, where it's slightly less gross.
I am enjoying the functioning heating system in my family home though. Jesus fucking Christ, I'd almost forgotten what warmth was.

I love Japan tho. Been there too many times in the past few years, but mostly going to concerts and meeting up with friends ^^ Hope you make your way there too eventually! Its a lovely place.

And of course I don't mind, I am originally from Malaysia, which is where I am now. But I have been lucky enough to go traveling quite a bit for work et al.
