My Life as Appolina

A big thing is happening in my life.  I discontinued my WOW subscription.  To those of you who don't know what WOW is, it's World of Warcraft.  I haven't been playing for long- but it's been fun. It all started at the beginning of last summer. David and I each created trial accounts. My name was Appolina. Being the master that he is, he quickly needed the full membership and I recreated my character on his account so that I could keep playing. David created the character "Appolinus" or something curiously similar to my name.... Anyway. Here she is:

I'll probably re-open my account in the future, and I have until November to enjoy that mystical land of epic quests and fights.

Some Music From Dad

As promised, here is a sampling of some of the music my dad has sent me:

Before I received the most recent mix-cd in the mail, my dad sent me this video and a link to some live Coco Rosie.

Scott Dunbar in two different videos. If you guys didn’t already know this, I love the accordion.





Now, I’m a sucker for good beatboxing.
Here’s one my dad sent me:



Sometime last year when I told my dad that I was into Die Antwoord, he responded with these videos of South African dubstep. Here’s the first one from that page. It’s about a widow mourning the death of her husband and trying to bring him back to life:

I’m not that into the second song. The third video is the artist talking about some Nike shoes that he’s advertising and his music. Just kinda a fun video.

Finally, a Reggie Watts video that has a Seattle dace crew in the background:

Cool Shorts

These sweatpants are my mom's least favorite item of clothing I've ever worn.  She's tried to throw them away countless times.  I stole them from a dude on prom night when I didn't have anything to wear to the afterparty other than my prom dress- which wasn't what I wanted to be wearing.
ANYWAY... I turned them into really cool pj shorts/ fine-dining attire. For example, I'm currently wearing them while eating mac and cheese on the dirty floor you see in the picture.
