Get out of my tessitura, Gerard Way

In the interests of writing our Gerard Way/Marilyn Manson RPS fic, [livejournal.com profile] pooklet sent me some My Chemical Romance to rape my ears with listen to. And something horrible happened: I didn't completely hate it. In fact, I can't stop singing it. Mostly because I haven't done much singing in about two years and as such my once fairly limber voice ("I COULD SING HIGH E!" she yells frantically) is reminescent of a boy going through puberty. The songs are right in the bottom-middle of my range, so that aside from the inherent awfulness of the songs they don't sound so bad when I sing them.

Fuck you, Gerard Way. Give me back my tessitura.

More importantly, I made up a list of things I am doing/need to do, sims-wise, and am posting it so that I can keep track of it and people can poke me if they see something interesting on it that I haven't gotten to yet.



- base game versions of Dining in Dreamland (easy but SO BORING.)
- [livejournal.com profile] ugly_kitties's records DONE AND IT WAS SOUL-CRUSHING.
- fix that fucking knitting mesh and recolor it
- other extracted bits, namely, decide which to do and do them
- track down the texture file of the pool table trick cup (IT HAS TO BE THERE SOMEWHERE)
- finish Big Damn Furniture List for Pooklet
- alpha edit hair for Camille (related: select hair to alpha edit for Camille)
- books? You said you were going to do some, do them.
- resize Mirake's mesh, make it a new object, slave it to the original (LOLYEAHRIGHT) holy shit did it
- OMSPS for all the important things (Gelydh's boxes stacked on coffee table for instance, why isn't there one that fits that anyway?)
- read up on hair meshing to hack that bun off the Rose mesh (related: fail at hair meshing)
- figure out what the fucking problem is with the TV mesh because it was an awesome idea
- more jewelry?
- LEARN TO REPOSITORY, IT'S NOT THAT HARD, IDJIT Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] gelydh for her tutorial and patience.

Manson and Slayer DO suck though. Or maybe that's just me. XD

Totally just you, at least as to Manson. Slayer I still don't like.

Actually I do like their cover of "Inna Gadda Da Vida", purely because they compressed a seventeen-minute epic into three minutes and it makes me giggle. But other than that yeah. Suck.

Eh, to each their own. I'm not fond of Manson's style, and heavy metal tends to make me cringe. There's only so much Lamb of God and Chimaira I can take before I go crawling in the other direction.

Then again... I'm an odd duck. I like Hurt and OneRepublic which are on completely opposite sides of the musical spectrum. But Hurt is preeeeeetty.

Well, I'm also partial to opera, which is rather the opposite of heavy metal, so I know what you mean.
