music stuff  
So, after... what, two, three years? I got a sudden need to listen to some gothic rock/darkwave/death rock/whatthefuckever I could NEVER get the fucking genres right argh

Thing is, I deleted most of my stuff since I thought my interest in that kind of music had died with my wannabe!goth phase (and it has, for the most part. I can only listen to it for short periods of time, or else I start getting bored/falling asleep). All I have left is some Cocteau Twins and Diabolique. I'm re-downloading Dead Can Dance and Sisters of Mercy, but I can't fucking remember what else I used to listen, god. I'll take my memory-addled self to Wikipedia to look for any band names that might ring a bell. And then to Soulseek.

I've kept most of my Neoclassical/Dark Ambient music (Arcana, Dargaard, Elend, Raison d'etre) 'cause i like to listen to it when i paint. Now I want more of it...

Speaking of Soulseek, apparently I have a port/router problem that's not letting anyone browse/download my files. I've been bitched out like three times by other users for not sharing anything. Dudes! I want to share my love files with you! but I just can't! I *could* fix it, since they give you instructions and everything, but i'll probably fuck something up and leave the house internet-less or something. :(


also when i touch my eyebrow my eyeball hurts :(

I don't recognize any of the bands you mentioned... I'm really quite ignorant of music stuff haha

also when i touch my eyebrow my eyeball hurts :(
this is lovably random... Is it something serious? or just annoying?

lol well i admit that some of the stuff i listen to is pretty damn obscure.

the eye thing-- well, it's probably due to staring at the monitor for too long. my eyesight's a teeny bit ruined already, and i'm trying (not very successfully) to cut down on my computer time to avoid making it worse XD

I've given up on the whole eye strain thing. To balance out the computer time, I've stopped wearing my glasses at times when I don't need them (I used to wear them all the time). It seems to work... for now :)

"gothic rock/darkwave/death rock/whatthefuckever I could NEVER get the fucking genres right argh"

To the extremely picky, those are three rather different things. As I myself am merely very picky, I can only sort of tell the difference.

"also when i touch my eyebrow my eyeball hurts :("

Sorry about that... but my brain for some reason instantly mapped this to "when I think about you I touch myself". (I mean, sure, the stress pattern is the same, but all the same -- wtf brainmeats?)

pretty good, in my opinion. been using it for like 4 years. not that i have a lot of experience using filesharing programs, but it's always given me good results.
