Moosak of a Different Drum.

Tonight's lyrical excerpt comes from a song by an artist whom I previously hadn't really made a connection with.

"I could be right, I could be wrong
it hurts so bad its been so long..."

Strange as it may seem, the artist is Ozzy Osbourne, normally known for his lengthy dreads, potty mouth, and headbanging. "Mama I'm Comin Home" is the song, it's featured in one of the episodes of the family's hit series The Osbournes, in one of the more emotional displays. It's quite the entertaining show, I wasn't all that into it at first, but it sort of grows on you. The nonstop hilarity reminds me of my own house.

The other song in heavy rotation today is also a bit outside the norm, as it comes recommended from a friend of mine with home I share VERY different musical preferences. This one we agree on though, it's Three Doors Down's "When I'm Gone." Pretty tough to not bob your head in rhythm, bumpin it on the new speakers sounds especially good. Did manage to get someone from down the hall to come tell me to turn it down on Friday at like 2pm, which was pretty lame. When it's not quiet hours, I can basically do as I please, but I'm not out to make any enemies. If I have friends over though, or it's a bunch of us watching a movie, they're really going to have to deal. I figure it's better than having a group of people participate in another typical activity like getting drunk, breaking their windows, or ripping stuff off their doors. They should be thankful I'm keeping people away from such tasks.

Apparently the parents are up in Solvang this weekend and will be stopping by sometime tomorrow. I'll probably end up sitting around watching football all day. Maybe I'll even go eat at some point. Possibly open a book. Very exciting stuff.
