Pixelate this...

Even when I don't agree with it, I understand the need for television networks to "fuzz" stuff out from time to time. Nevertheless that fuzzing irritates me when it smacks of double standards.

Seven Songs I'm Into

Tagged by iarraidh...

List seven songs you are into right now. No matter what the genre, whether they have words, or even if they're any good, but they must be songs you're really enjoying now. Post these instructions in your LiveJournal along with your seven songs. Then tag seven other people to see what they're listening to.

Editor's note: Since my friends list is pretty short, tagging other people is sort of a waste of time. I do look forward to reading other people's lists, though!

A phone call from my sister: mom

So very strange, how a person's life and outlook can change in just a matter of minutes. When my sister called tonight from Colorado at 10:00pm (our time), I knew something was in the wind, a change coming for me and, by extension, my family.

My sister's basic message was brief: Our mother is dying, and will probably be gone within the next two weeks.
