'cause tonight's the night the world begins again
Note to self: Do not spent excessive time reading the Tear Jerker page on the TV Tropes Wiki, as it brings about severe depression. (Makes me really want to write the depressing parts of Across the Ocean, because there's a very significant character death that pretty much brings down the mood of the whole plot for a while.)

So you know the mysterious technological event involving Sephiroth my alarm clock and the random playing of "Make Your Own Kind of Music" when I got out of the shower that I was talking about on Tuesday? I think I've figured out the mystery. The reason the song was still playing when I came back into my room, despite the fact that I thought that it would have moved on to another song, was because I have my playlists set to repeat once they're done, and so I had selected "Make Your Own Kind of Music" even though I had selected it through artist name, it still counted that as being on a playlist, and since that's the only song I have by Cass Elliot, it just played on repeat over and over. This was confirmed yesterday when I had Laguna my iPod plugged in to Squall my computer (to use my 133+ h@x0r skills and transfer music off my iPod to my computer) and I realized that "Make Your Own Kind of Music" had a play count of 12, and the only way that I could have listened to the song 12 times (since I only bought it a couple of weeks ago) is if it had accidentally been on repeat.

So yeah, long story short, one technological mystery has been solved. Now if only I could figure out how FFX got onto my Lost season four finale tape...

Since I was talking about being depressed over Tear Jerker moments earlier, I thought I'd share some silly too. Sonic Weapon Fence, a band that sings humorous Lost songs. My personal favorites are "Magic Box" and "Mixed Signals." (In my own moment of humorous musical moments today, I started making up lyrics to the instrumental "Aerith's Theme" from FFVII which basically state over and over again that Aerith Is Dead and We Are Sad... but that's another story altogether.)

Yes, I am a dork past midnight.
