Love's gonna carry you home

Mostly LJ updates today. I'll get to other things later.

If you're friends with me already (I friended you and you friended me), you obviously don't have to worry about the friends only entry. I just put it up because people have started friending me without saying anything, and I have no idea where some of them even came from anymore.

I changed my layout again. I actually haven't done that for a long time. I didn't mess with the CSS at all, just the image at the top. I wanted it to be tinted slightly red to match the rest of the layout but still in black and white. I set up the image header to show more than one person this time. Although, I had a hard time choosing the people I wanted to include. At first, I was trying to decide between John and Paul for a Beatle, then I said screw it, and chose George. I respect George a lot, though. Was going to include John Mayer, but I decided on Frank Sinatra instead. I never do anything with him in it, and I like him more than I let on.

I updated my 2010 scrapbook somewhat. I have to add a few other things I missed to it. At least it didn't sit for half a year like it did last year. I've got a lot to add to it still.

I'm also going through and working on my tags. I want to clean them up and get rid of the ones I don't use anymore or really don't care to have anymore. I like some of my silly tag names, but I'm also going to make them easier to find.

I know I said I wasn't going to do a picspam for the Idol 2010 finale, but I've got something else in mind. Since it is the end of the Simon era, I wanted to do a couple of things for it. I also wanted to put Lee somewhere here since I did want him to win this year.

So, I'm searching "Jon Bon Jovi" and Google pulls up "jon bon jovi divorce" as the number one search. I wonder if I've missed something, and then I realize it's just people confusing Jon and Richie again. BECAUSE EVERYONE KNOWS JON IS REALLY THE ONLY MEMBER OF THE BAND. THE REST OF THE GUYS YOU SEE ON STAGE AND IN THE PICTURES ARE JUST MARIONETTES.

Anyway, most of the stuff I didn't finish tonight will be finished in a couple of days, so excuse the mess. I'm far too tired to work on stuff tonight. I should have gone to bed a while ago now anyway.

The pen name came about so people could say my last name if I ever got published and to separate myself from teaching if it happened as well since I have no idea what I'd end up writing at this point. Yeah, I do that lately (haven't touched Twitter in a while, actually). There's some people you just don't want reading that stuff.

I liked that song as a kid. Haha. Now I definitely wonder what he was thinking. ...And then Demi Lovato covered it. ~_~ Which means someone thought it was a good idea.

[holly-hox-1985.livejournal.com]

I think that's definitely a smart idea, especially if you might end up in teaching. Yeah, just too many people around lately that would read into something the wrong way.

Oh Demi Lovato - another one I don't understand.

[street-symphony.livejournal.com]

I was reading that if you put the copywright in your real name, then people can see that your real name, but I wonder how many people would bother to check. Yeah, that's the idea.

I kind of understand her (she sings better than some of the other Disney people), but I think she tries to sound like other people. Like, when she wrote with Jon McLaughlin, she's definitely imitating him on the vocals for those songs.

[holly-hox-1985.livejournal.com]

Probably not many, to be honest. Then again I guess you can never be too sure.

I haven't really ever listened to her. I guess I always assumed she was as bad as the rest of them. She's probably still too young to have a musical point of view of her own.

[street-symphony.livejournal.com]

I figured that. Someone would know, but it isn't really common knowledge unless you're a best selling author, I think.

The song she wrote by herself for her last album is probably the best one on it, actually. She sings better than Miley Cyrus, for sure. Yeah, that does seem to be her problem. It probably doesn't help that Disney locks their "stars" into that bubble gum style of pop either.

[holly-hox-1985.livejournal.com]

I didn't know you could do that until you told me, to be honest.

Anyone has to be better than Miley! Yeah, from the very, very little I know of her, I can tell she's better than Miley. I have to wonder what her tour with the Jonas Brothers will be like since she and Joe broke up lol

[street-symphony.livejournal.com]

I didn't either. I decided to look into it because I wondered how copyright was handled with things like that.

Now, now, I'd rather hear Miley than Taylor Swift, if we're being honest. I have no idea. I know they were doing the whole, "We're still friends" thing. Don't know how that's working for them. At least she's not still complaining about it.

[holly-hox-1985.livejournal.com]

I think Miley and Taylor are both a draw for equally godawful. It has to be awkward. Seems like she was way more into him than he was into her - that's never good lol

[street-symphony.livejournal.com]

I guess I don't mind Miley because she isn't releasing the same song over and over again. He does seem to be a heartbreaker. I'll have to ask my sister what the atmosphere is like onstage.

[holly-hox-1985.livejournal.com]

That's true. I just can't believe she makes SO MUCH MONEY. I wonder if they're doing any duets?

[street-symphony.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that's nuts. Well, they have that one duet with that Make A Wave, and they are THE couple of Camp Rock, so they probably will (why do I know this?).

[holly-hox-1985.livejournal.com]

It's all kids that buy her stuff, I guess. Haha, I wonder why I know half the things I know, too :P
