Anyone else going to see FM in Feb? Its at a small Atlanta venuuuuuuuuuue

I dont know what FM even stands for lol >.<

 

 

Unfortunately, we can't even sell out a show so I can't imagine that we could get enough people to do that. Besides, all the cool people will be in GA, right? ;)

Some of the shows in America were sold out though, werent they? Atlanta was, I know, because we were gonna try to get a seat for my mom.

We should definitely try to make some sort of banner though, or signs/posters. I like the idea of a long banner & all hold it up ..though it would limit our ability to jump/raise hands/etc...But I would like to do something super nice & artistic that might get us noticed haha

 

 

Hahaha...Wolstensex has no boundaries.

:LOL: Sooooo wrong XD BUT we should say that the Wolstensperm have no boundaries, because I only had a handshake lol

 

 

 

I still skip it. :$ I don't mind SMBH because it's such a fun song.

I like it better than SMBH though. I actually *despised* that song, up until I saw it live. Then I liked it better lol. Now its still not my fave but I sing along & put on a high pitched voice XD

 

I can't wait to see your Muse survey on FB.

I know this isnt to me, but just letting yall know I wont be doing it.

 

 

They play "A Seaside Rendezvous" fairly often. :awesome:

I downloaded that & converted it & put it on my ipod. Havent even watched it yet though.

 

So......is everyone ready for Christmas?

Not. At. All. I still dont even know who I'm supposed to be buying a Xmas present for. We're all quite short on extra money, so we were gonna all pick a name & only buy a present for one person. But we've never had a chance to all get together. My Grandmother took on the task, and was gonna match everyone with someone, but she has yet to do it, or tell us who we got. Rediculous.

 

 

Hello??? Where is everyone?

 

I saw the trailer for "The Tourist" again at the theater last night and my daughter, the non-Muse fan, got very excited when Map began playing and said, "Hey--it's Muse!" :chuckle:

She is SOOOOOOOO obviously in the Muse closet. She seriously *needs* to come out of it, its much better on our side XD

How old is your daughter? Haha, sounds like she just doesn't wanna admit that she likes them, cause it's not "cool" to like what your parents like. Haha. At least Garrett isn't in denial.

 

Oh, I'm home now, so I'm gonna start working on my Muse survey. Gonna take me a while. Much thought is required. :D

 

I'm not quite ready for Christmas. I've barely started shopping, but at least I have a better idea of what to get everyone. Money is short here, too. Our family has also started employing Dirty Santa in order to cut some costs (but still have fun!).

I meant to ask you this the other day: what do you do there so early?

 

 

 

I love the video, too, Missy! I think it's one of their better ones, actually. Now for a controversial Muse opinion: I don't care for Microcuts. It sounds like screeching cats. Are you with me on this one, Amber?

 

 

I sit in a windowless room counting the deposit from the previous business day, balancing the safe/vault money, checking all the register paperwork and miscellaneous other paperwork stuff. I also put the money in all the registers before opening, verify the custom framing orders, put out price changes, file lots of paperwork (payroll, employee forms, shipping/receiving papers, etc), write people up for making mistakes on their registers *lol* and keep the offices tidy :eek: It's way too much work for one person and 99% of the time I am the only office specialist in. There are 2 of us and it's still a bit overwhelming I like it, but am frustrated by how much I am suppose to keep up with in the amount of time I am usually scheduled. I'm sure it will get A LOT easier after Christmas, though.

 

Aw, I really like Microcuts. That falsetto is so sexy :happy:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So......is everyone ready for Christmas?

 

No. I'm also doing my mom's Christmas shopping for my boys. I'm mostly getting things from Amazon and having them shipped to her house. I'm not doing all her wrapping, too :p So far I have my kids 90% done and my parents are covered. That just leaves my sister, brother-in-law, and nephews & my best friend. Should be easy though.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I like it better than SMBH though. I actually *despised* that song, up until I saw it live. Then I liked it better lol. Now its still not my fave but I sing along & put on a high pitched voice XD

 

 

 

Ooh, I want to hear that :D We really need to have a talent show/karaoke party!!

Thank you for saving me from my one-sided conversation. :kiss:

Yes, some shows did sell out but ours wasn't even close. :( I like this banner idea and it seems like the perfect project for you, our resident artist. My contribution will be my arms (for holding it up).

 

I know this isnt to me, but just letting yall know I wont be doing it.

 

Why not??? :supersad:

 

She is SOOOOOOOO obviously in the Muse closet. She seriously *needs* to come out of it, its much better on our side XD

 

:LOL: I told her that and she got defensive and said, "I LIKE Muse!" So I think she is moving into the light.

 

How old is your daughter? Haha, sounds like she just doesn't wanna admit that she likes them, cause it's not "cool" to like what your parents like. Haha. At least Garrett isn't in denial.

 

She's 14 and you are exactly right. I offered to get her a ticket to Raleigh several times and to be honest, I think she regrets not going now. Fool! :chuckle:

Dare I ask--who or what is Dirty Santa?

Yikes! I had no idea all that went on before stores even open.

 

No. I'm also doing my mom's Christmas shopping for my boys. I'm mostly getting things from Amazon and having them shipped to her house. I'm not doing all her wrapping, too :p

 

I do all the shopping for my kids for my family, too, because no one wants to pay for shipping. They return the favor so it's all good. At this age, my kids get a lot of gift cards so it's always a struggle to try to disguise them in different boxes. I'm waiting for one more gift in the mail then I am finished!

 

Ooh, I want to hear that :D We really need to have a talent show/karaoke party!!

 

Sorry, I will not sing in public....unless it is in a crowd of at least 7,000 Muse fans. I will gladly listen to all of you do your best Maffoo, though. After the holidays and my trip to Orlando, I am going to get serious about arranging a meet-up. We can't wait until the next tour--I miss my Muser buddies!

I could not handle that D:

 

Ooh, I want to hear that :D We really need to have a talent show/karaoke party!!

Haha nooooooo you dont XD It is horrendous. I will never sing alone in front of anyone. Closest yall will get to hearing me sing is my concert vid of Ruled by Secrecy lol. And that was horrible enough & it was half hidden by everyone else singing & Matt of course.

But other than that…nobody hears me sing XD Well the ex did. But that’s different lol. (we watched Sweeney Todd & sang the whole thing hahaha)

 

Yes, some shows did sell out but ours wasn't even close. :( I like this banner idea and it seems like the perfect project for you, our resident artist. My contribution will be my arms (for holding it up).

Yeah ours was quite sad XD But I’m still sure they made quite a lot of money, because its not like there was 20 people there or something, it was still a lot.

 

I would need some help with ideas, and maybe also help with making it haha. I could paint the boys on one side & write something on the other, but what it would say would definitely be the part where I’d need help. I could never come up with anything clever or interesting to put on it.

 

 

 

Why not??? :supersad:

Well because I’m not as big of a Muse fan as you guys. I looked through it, and I could answer a grand total of FIVE of those questions. I don’t think it would be very interesting to have almost everything be answered with “Dunno…No idea…Don’t know…”

 

 

 

:LOL: I told her that and she got defensive and said, "I LIKE Muse!" So I think she is moving into the light.

I am pretty sure she more than likes them, if she’s getting excited when she hears them, and even singing along to the riffs.

 

She's 14 and you are exactly right. I offered to get her a ticket to Raleigh several times and to be honest, I think she regrets not going now. Fool! :chuckle:

Did you show her any of the concert videos? I bet that would really hurt though XD

 

 

 

Dare I ask--who or what is Dirty Santa?

Oh its just like Secret Santa, where you draw names and only buy a present for one person, usually keeping it anonymous. But with dirty Santa, you do gag gifts, I believe. LOL but being called “dirty” makes it sound as though it would be pervy XD Haha *imagines everyone giving sex toys*

 

 

After the holidays and my trip to Orlando, I am going to get serious about arranging a meet-up. We can't wait until the next tour--I miss my Muser buddies!

I wish I could go to Orlando XD XD XD One day, I’m gonna save my money & get my butt down there. And hopefully I can find someone to go with me lol.

 

I hope I can force myself to find a job before these plans start. I will be supersad if you guys get together & I cant go : (

 

fLOGGING mOLLY. c'MON THE GREATEST BAND IN THE WORLD TODAY :awesome: cELT pUNK IS WHERE ITS AT. tRUFAX.

 

 

How the.... fuckign capslock.

 

Yeeeah I've heard OF them, never heard them though *shrug*

Close. Dirty Santa is where you buy one anonymous gift, and everyone draws a number. You choose a gift in the order, but you have the option to open a new gift or steal one that has already been opened by someone else, and that's where the "dirty" part comes from. There are varying rules beyond that, but that's the core part of it. It's pretty fun, but sometimes the fights over gifts can get ugly...:chuckle:

Oooh right. Haha I'd forgotten about that version. Thats how we used to play it with my Grandpa's side of the family. They cant be bothered to get together anymore, but most of his side was a bunch of stuck up jerks anyways lol.

 

Me too :( Unemployment suuuuuuucks. I had to quit my job to move, and I have yet to get another one.

I'm sure you probably left your job in on good terms though, and can at least use them for a reference. I'm screwed, and terrified to apply anywhere, because I know they're just gonna toss mine out.

Oh and I'm alive too. Exams are nearly done, just 1 to go! :awesome:

I don't have a creative bone in my body but many of you are very witty. Someone in this thread (months ago) had great ideas for banners....was it the Geneticist?

Haha...are you starting to fear us because we're a bit obsessed? I still want to see your five answers...please???

 

Did you show her any of the concert videos? I bet that would really hurt though XD

 

Oh, yes--she's watched tons of Muse videos with me. I really do think she regrets her stubborness now.

Ah, I've heard of that but it was called something else. That's fun, except when someone takes your good gift and you end up with crap. ;)

 

Ooh--I heard "Uprising" on the radio in the car yesterday for the first time since summer and I got SO excited. *sigh* If this is how I behave now, what will become of me in a year when the Boys are in hibernation? :$

1) I remember that, too. I think it might have been Elaine.

 

2)Yeah, I wanna see those 5 as well ;)

 

3) Last year, I scored. I actually swiped something that I really wanted, and the gift I brought was fought over by my aunts, so I think that was a win, too. I canNOT decide what to get this year though. It's so hard to try to find something that the men in the family might want, too...

 

Has anyone here seen Toy Story 3? I watched it for the first time today, and I had a Muse moment in it that damn near wrecked a serious scene with a fit of giggles...

 

[spoiler=Toy Story 3 Spoilers!!] When all the toys were heading toward the incinerator (sp?) and they slowly started grabbing each other's hands, preparing to go together, my mind suddenly pulled up, "And if we dieeee, we die togeeeeetheeerrrr!!"

Thanks. :awesome: Just got 1 more exam to go. And yes, it's been FREEZING lately. It's hardly ever this cold, even in winter :LOL:

Ah well, we dont have to worry about thinking up witty things to go on a sign for quite a while, it seems...When the time comes though, I'm gonna need some help! lol

 

 

 

Haha...are you starting to fear us because we're a bit obsessed? I still want to see your five answers...please???

Nooo I dont fear you guys! I just feel like I know nothing next to you guys.

OK but this will be boring & pointless….umm...lemme see....

* Favorite guitar riff: Plug in Baby or Invincible

* Favorite song live that you have seen: Exogenesis part 1

* The one song that you saw live that completely changed your opinion of the song: Supermassive Blackhole

*The one song that you MUST see live (other than overall favorite): Um….Invincible, I think. Maybe. When I first got the cds(Ex had burned them all for me, and sent them to me..so yeah, guess what guys, I still don’t own any of the real cds..other than HAARP XD and I feel bad about it lol), I’m pretty sure I listened to that album first & that’s the first song I really noticed & loved, so it will always hold that special place in my heart lmao XD

*If you could only listen to one album for a month, which would it be and why:

Absolution. Its my favorite. Too many great songs on it.

*If you had to stop listening to one album for a month, which would it be and why:

DEFINITELY Showbiz. A lot of songs on that album, I don’t care too much about.

*Biggest fear for the future: That they would break up, or never come back to America & I couldn’t see them again.

 

 

Oh look, more than I thought. I managed 7 instead of 5 XD Oh well, still boring though.

 

 

 

 

 

Oh, yes--she's watched tons of Muse videos with me. I really do think she regrets her stubborness now.

Haha good, maybe that’ll teach her a lesson & she wont be stubborn next time.

 

That's fun, except when someone takes your good gift and you end up with crap. ;)

That always happened to me D: I remember once, when I was about 13 (probably too young to be allowed to play, but yeah XD) I got something I really liked. So I pretended to go to the bathroom, and I took it with me, and hid it in my bag so nobody could take it XD When someone came over looking for it, I refused to tell them where it was :LOL:

Ooh I feel privileged now ; )

 

 

 

Guess I should post this here as well, though I doubt I’ll have any luck. :indiff:

 

My deal with Eri for my first Matt painting fell through. So I’m hoping someone will want to buy him.

I’d honestly take the best offer on it right now : / I just need some money XD

I’m sure everyone remembers what it looks like, but just in case:

[spoiler=Matt painting]DSC07325.jpg

 

He's acrylic on canvas, 14x14inch.

'Twas me! :D (Not to be confused with The Geneticist; I'm technically a radiation biologist.)

 

And yes, witty banners are my life...only problem being, every time I see Muse, it's either too dark or I'm too far away for them to see my banner, or else I spend the entire gig like this: :eek: and completely forget to hoist the damn thing. :facepalm:

 

This is the one I brought along to the Vegoose Festival in Las Vegas in 2007:

Hi everyone :D Sorry I've been MIA. Most of my time lately has been over in the Aussie threads. And the JKA lurve boat :LOL: I guess I should say Ass Boat, but whatever.

 

Amber - sorry you didn't want to do my survey. Even if you don't have the answers off the top of your head, you can still experiment. I created it and it took me over 2 days to complete it. Mainly because I went and listened to some songs again that I may not go to on first chance. I also spent a lot of time on youtube trying to find my favorite performance. The one that I spent the most time on was favorite vocals. Since they all are great, I knew I wanted to pick something that really stood out. I listened to almost all of the songs and really paid attention to Matt's voice and how he sang it. When I listened to CoD, the way he held those notes was simply amazing.

Oh, and I only own HAARP and Hullabaloo in CD form. Everything else is a download. That really doesn't matter. ;)

 

 

Hope everyone is ready for Christmas. I am NOT. My girls have been sick all week and I have not purchased the first gift. My 3 year old asks me every day why we have no presents :supersad: Bless her heart.

 

 

Anyways, back to being domesticated for a while.

I was wondering about this Facebook survey everyone was talking about. I don't use it much, and only have like 4 Muser friends on there. Can I be your friend so I can take the survey too? :$

Its nothing personal or anything. I dont do ANY notes, ever. I dont see the point. Anytime I get tagged in a note, I look at it, and if there's any questions I cant answer, I skip it. I've never seen one where I could answer everything, or even anywhere close, so there's no point.

 

 

And honestly, I could never ever be bothered to do all that stuff. Going through youtube vids for days, and all that. I dont care enough. I'm sure I've seen less than 1% of their live videos & interviews, and I dont really care, I'm too lazy to look it all up. If someone had like a playlist of all of it, I may watch them. But I just dont have the patience to look them up for myself.

 

Oh, and I only own HAARP and Hullabaloo in CD form. Everything else is a download. That really doesn't matter. ;)

Ah well, makes me feel a little better knowing not everyone has them all. I still wish i had a hard copy of them, that wasnt made by the ex. I'd like to have the real cds & the booklets with all the lyrics & stuff. (to be honest, I dont think i even know half of the lyrics to most of their songs...again, its the whole *cant be bothered* part of me)

 

and only have like 4 Muser friends on there.

You can add me if you want, even though I dont really know you XD
