The absolute best music in the world? Two words!

Indigo Girls!

I love the Indigo Girls. They're kinda 'old school', I guess, but their music is wonderful and very special to me. I can remember singing their song Closer to Fine when I was little with my mom. They're kind...soul-rock. Me luvs them.

And I loooooooove to sing! And listen to FF and FE music. And play Harvest Moon....and be randomly murdered by pigs in Windwaker. >.> Seriously, they have it in for me!

I also am a manga fan! Favorite series...

Cardcaptor Sakura
Cardcaptor Sakura: Master of the Clow

I should just say anything by CLAMP...

And all the songs from all the bands on any custom CD I may ever burn of iTunes, which are becoming too numerous to list. Yes.

That's my favorite thing to say.

Anyhoo...I love to write things. I write poetry. I'm published in the poetic world. I write short stories. Still not published there. I'm working on a long series of novels spanning a total of....well, 9 books in the Ryver Cycle, plus more in later Cylces I haven't fulling planned yet. A life time of work, but I'm sworn to finish it.

I love to dream about things. I think if I could sleep for the rest of my life and just dream about things, I would. Many of the book ideas spring up from dreams I've had. Plus those "What if..." sessions I have when I'm daydreaming or bored. Never ever deny your What If sense.


I'm also pretty crazy, but I'm nice and helpful too. I hope.

Uhhh....I also love the rain! And hiking! I want to thru-hike a mountain chain one day...and I love to knit and to sew.

Below are a bunch of songs from Indigo Girls that relate to the characters I use in roleplays here. That or I just like them, and if they happen to relate to a character, I'll say so.

Starting with Selena. The song Kid Fears really touches some of her inner fears, especially her fear of fire. And since she's had those fears since she was a kid...well...yeah. They're kid fears.

Kid Fears

Pain from pearls -hey little girl
How much have you grown
Pain from pearls - hey little girl
Flower for the ones you’ve known

Are you on fire
From the years
What would you give
For your kid fears

Secret staircase, running high
You had a hiding place
Secret staircase, running low
But they all know, now you’re inside

Are you on fire
From the years
What would you give
For your kid fears
Your kid fears

Skipping stones, we know the price now
And any sin will do
How much further, if you can spin
How much further, if you are smooth

Replace the rent with the stars above
Replace the need with love
replace the anger with the tide
Replace the ones...the ones that you love...

Are you on fire
From the years
What would you give
For your kid fears
Your kid fears

Hey kid
Hold on

Charzette is another character I tend to use a lot. I always think of her when I listen to Land of Caanan, only because it seems to reflect her love life. It talks about how this person in the song isn't the saving grace or a heaven that someone is looking for, but this person needs you now anyway. That's kinda the summerization of Char's love life!

Land of Caanan

You can go to the east to find your
Your inner hemisphere
You say we’re under the same sky babe
Your bound to realize honey it’s not that clear
I’m not your promised land oh no
I’m not your promised one
I’m not the land of canaan sweetheart
Waiting for you under the sun

I’m lonely tonight
I’m missing you now
I’m wanting your love
And you’re giving it out
I’m lonely tonight
I’m lonely tonight
I’m lonely tonight

Well, the meanings changed
For what it’s worth
It’s just a senseless game
Well I should think of love
But it’s fear every time I hear
Honey your heartbeat strain
It’s not the fallen man
It’s not the call of time
It’s just the london skyline sweetheart
Telling me you’re not mine

I’m lonely tonight
I’m missing you now
I’m wanting your love
And you’re giving it out
I’m lonely tonight
I’m lonely tonight
I’m lonely tonight

My blood is running dry
My skin is, my skin is growing thin
For every time you find yourself
You loose a little bit of me honey from within
It’s just a raging cycle
Why can’t we bring it all to the end of the line
From inside this existence, sweetheart
Time is not on my side

I’m lonely tonight
I’m missing you now
I’m wanting your love
And you’re giving it out
I’m lonely tonight
I’m lonely tonight
I’m lonely tonight

Riddle is probably one of my favorite characters I've ever invented. Not because she's an emotionally scarred unstable danger to herself, but because as soon as she was 'born' as a character I was so worried about her. She's just the type of character that a person like me can worry about. Blood and Fire is a song of desperation that perfectly matches a destructive person like Riddle.

Blood and Fire

I have spent nights with matches and knives
Leaning over ledges only two flights up
Cutting my heart, burning my soul
Nothing left to hold
Nothing left but blood and fire

You have spent nights thinking of me
Missing my arms but you needed to leave
Leaving my cuts, leaving my burns
Hoping I’d learn

But blood and fire
Are too much for these restless arms to hold
And my nights of desire they’re calling me
Back to your fold
And I am calling you, calling you
From 10,000 miles away
Won’t you whet my fire with your love
Babe

I am looking for someone who can take as much as I give
And give back as much as I need
You know and they still have the will to live ah no
Cause I am intense, I am in need
I am in pain, I am in love
And I feel forsaken you know
Like the things I gave away

And blood and fire
Are too much for these restless arms to hold
And my nights of desire they’re calling me
Back to your fold
And I am calling you, calling you
From 10,000 miles away
Won’t you whet my fire with your love
Babe, babe, babe

I am intense, I am in need, I am in pain, I am in love
You know I am intense, I am in need, I am in pain, I am in love
I am intense, I am in need, I am in pain, I am in love
And blood and fire
Are too much for these restless arms to hold
And my nights of desire they’re calling me
Back to your fold
And I am calling you, calling you
From 10,000 miles away
Won’t you whet my fire with your love
Babe
Won’t you whet my fire with your love
Babe now
Whet my fire with your love

This final song has to do with me personally and the character I based after my 'inner' self. I swear Indigo Girls are singing about me when i hear this song. @_@

Galileo

Galileo’s head was on the block
The crime was looking up for truth
And as the bombshells of my daily fears explode
I try to trace them to my youth

And then you had to bring up reincarnation
Over a couple of beers the other night
And now I’m serving time for mistakes
Made by another in another lifetime

How long till my soul gets it right
Can any human being ever reach that kind of light
I call on the resting soul of galileo
King of night vision, king of insight

And then I think about my fear of motion
Which I never could explain
Some other fool across the ocean years ago
Must have crashed his little airplane

How long till my soul gets it right
Can any human being ever reach that kind of light
I call on the resting soul of galileo
King of night vision, king of insight

I’m not making a joke, you know me
I take everything so seriously
If we wait for the time till all souls get it right
Then at least I know there’ll be no nuclear annihilation
In my lifetime I’m still not right

I offer thanks to those before me
That’s all I’ve got to say
’cause maybe you squandered big bucks in your lifetime
Now I have to pay
But then again it feels like some sort of inspiration
To let the next life off the hook
But she’ll say look what I had to overcome from my last life
I think I’ll write a book

How long till my soul gets it right
Can any human being ever reach the highest light
Except for galileo God rest his soul
(except for the resting soul of Galileo)
King of Night Vision, King of Insight

*sigh* So TRUE...It even talks about writing books! That's Twilight Zone creepy!

I don't want to list all 196 Indigo Girls songs that I love or relate to people in my head. That would take a loooong time.

Anyway, thanks for reading this!

:shifty:

BWHA!
