Random political "Aww"

A political cartoon that made me "Aww" about the new Supreme Court nominee (who seems like she's a very cool lady):



It's been cold and miserable up here for the last few days and will continue to be cold and miserable for a few days. I also had the experience last night of having Jesse-cat lie on my back while I was lying on my front on my bed. The kitty-shiatsu would have been okay up until the point when he brought out his claws on my bare neck. Yowch. He also weighs about 20 pounds, and I wasn't expecting it. Neither he nor Stella-cat like the weather either, so they've been cuddling up to us a lot. Of course, on days like this their schedule (sleep, eat, sleep some more) doesn't look so bad.

Can it actually act like it's almost June? That would be nice.

"Diary of Jane" Acoustic

I don't usually like this style of music, but these guys do some interesting stuff, and they seem to actually know how to use melody and harmony.

I liked this particular song before, but the acoustic version manages to be even spookier than the original, which is impressive on its own. It also proves that Breaking Benjamin can sing in more than one style, and the piano and atmosphere of this song rocks.
