   She Burns Like The Sun

Time: 2:53PM Sunday 30 May At this very moment, I am juggling 3 MSN conversations, typing this and listening to Muse. What a superbly awesome day. Excepting that is, the horribly windy, damp, gale-like, soaking day outside. That sounds even more horrible than it is. Anyway, I had to trim these bush/tree things outside my mum's window, because they're growing waaay too close to the powerline for my comfort. I actually did it off my own initiative too. Which, trust me, has got to be a first. Anyway, I did that, downloaded a few songs by Sugarcult, Kyuss [QOTSA] and two songs by The Hives. As recommended by various people. They don't seem too bad...but I wouldn't rate them as a favourite band yet. We'll see- as Melt Banana did, they may yet grow on me. I think one of the main parts about loving a song is the fact that you can anticipate what comes next. For the most part, I don't listen to songs, and on the first play know that I love them. A part of loving a song involves looking forward, and expecting each chorus, each welling up of sound, each funky drumroll. It is, to me, an essential part. On a first play, the sweet spot might pass you by...but once you know the song, it smacks you right between the eyes. Well, thats me anyway. I have also had an idea for an RPG...it is based upon the story "Shade's Children" by Garth Nix, which I read about a year ago. I have only written a few lines, but hope to bring it into fruition. It is based around the premise that all adults disappeared, that strange creatures called Overlords took over, and that some of these children have special abilities and escaped, to come together under this one guy called Shade. Very cool story. I might even see if I can implement a chapter based system as James has, because it is the only forseeable way that I can control the storyline, and point it how I want. Narrative following RPG's are a notoriously difficult area. Anyone here be interested in a premise like that? Mood: Ok. Song: Sunburn by Muse.
