Tax Refund Rampage, Part 3: The Arrival!
Tuesday, February 7, 2006

Just needed to gush about some of stuff finally starting to arrive :P

Actually, a couple days earlier than I expected. Tricky thing about working nights, actually, is that what I usually do is stay up until about 2pm on days I work, and then for my days off, I try to get right to sleep so I can be up in the afternoon; get to hang out and stuff. Sometimes doesn't work so well, making my body shift sleep schedules that suddenly. Sleeping pills and caffeine help the transitions some(don't worry I know what I'm doing, and they're just for regulating my sleep, I try not to use them at all. :)

Trouble with today was, I took the wrong gorram pills. Took the caffeine pills after work instead of the sleeping ones. So I'm trying to sleep, but too jittery to get it work. Good thing, though, cause the first package of my amazon.com blowout showed up a few days earlier than I'd been expecting. Looks like I'll have to go without sleep for today ;p

This one had both the movie and tv show soundtracks, and Finding Serenity and the Visual Companion. The TPB should be showing up later on in the week, too, so I'm starting to get rather excited.

Actually, I'm listening to the Firefly soundtrack, as I write this, which is why maybe I'm a little disjointed. I've played the second track five times already... (I LOVE that hook towards the end of that, the one that plays on the Train Job ep, after the bar fight when they're getting on Serenity...)

First thing I've noticed: that Visual Companion is AMAZING-looking. I'm dumbfounded. Only had time to flip through a bit, but... shiny. That blew me away. And Finding Serenity: that I was really looking forward to. I've been in need of some Firefly-related stuff to read, and that's perfect bathroom reading. (The Companion's a little too pretty for that) Finding Serenity I wanted for the same reason I spend so much time reading through the forums here. (Tearing up now, the song from the funeral scene in the Message is playing :_(

I think I just need more and more confirmation that I'm not the only person so totally captivated by this 'verse... :P

Okay, I gotta close this off here and do some reading, try to work on some sketches some to keep me awake another 12 hours or so. Really, really, really loving this soundtrack as I write this, though. I've been seriously needing that, and I'm just now finding out how true it was. Man, if Greg Edmonson didn't get some sort of crazy award for this soundtrack, well, then someone is going to the special hell for overlooking him ;p

Keep the faith, people. I've got my ammo, now. I'll be holding...

hmmm... I guess I can stop typing....

... now.

Well here's to affirmation! I totally think about firefly stuff all day long, whenever I photoshop or draw I play both soundtracks back to back on repeat...I relate all kinds of things to the 'verse...We're still out here, and we love FF just as much as you!
