In Which AI skyrockets and Voyager is going too fast

Good morning, dear friend and reader of the current post! I am, of course, and as always, so happy and humbled to see you, and I hope to make it clear I never take it for granted. How are you, this last day of March? As for me, I am okay, I'd say. Today was alright overall, not anything on any side in particular, either good or bad. I made my college test for the March discipline, and my grade was nothing to write about, but also enough to pass me through! So it is what it is. I made myself some sweet potatoes for lunch, it was good and filling. But the trend concerning food is concerning. I have been struggling with my appetite again. At times I feel very hungry and almost like before the surgery, that is extremely concerning. I did manage to locate the approximate reason for this, and it is the protein intake deficit. I am in need of supplementation, but that is so expensive and in my household at the moment every penny counts, specially since we are barely reaching the end of th...

Song of the Week! In which we go to a Dead's Man Party

Hello everyone!! Happy Friday to you all!!! How are you guys doing today? How are you? As always, I wish you the best, and hope everything is being really fine! Here in october, I think the "could-be" rainy days are behind us, and a very hot sun is what we have until next winter, in 2019! We'll just have to smile and go through this, always with sunglasses and proper clothing so we can survive the heat and the rays of sun, that are strong and can be damaging as hell! Anyway, we'll have good moments in spite of anything, so let's keep on moving on! One day at a time!
THE VOICE IS BACK GUYS!!!!11 I'm so happy!!!! This season sounds great already, so many talented people out there, it's so mind blowing!!! I cannot wait to see the next episodes and keep on following the show as I love to do! I still don't have a favorite of this season, and honestly, but who knows, there're lots of weeks of blind auditions ahead of us, and a whole season filled with amazing performances, so let's see what the future holds!
Talking about music, today is music Friday!!! And since we're on a spooky season, let's have not a regular party, but a DEAD'S MAN PARTY!!!


Fun fact: the kitten on this cover is an illustration by Louis Wain!

I discovered this band, Oingo Boingo, absolutely out of nowhere in June of this year! I was looking for the soundtrack of a movie I watched recently, Can't Buy Me Love, a really nice movie from the 80's with a lot of great songs in it! I should write about this movie soon, but one step at a time right, otherwise this post will turn into an encyclopedia! Okay, so I was listening to one of the musics of the film on Youtube, when I found out a title that caught my attention on the recommended session. It was a song called Weird Science by this band with a really weird name Oingo Boingo. In spite of my second thoughts, I decided to give it a try, and the rest is history, I totally fell in love with this really odd synth-ska inspired-pop band from the 80's! Never heard songs more upbeat and weird than the songs of this band, and I loved them deeply!! It's both weird and amazing that Danny Elfman, the lead singer of this band (that doesn't exist anymore since the 90's) is the same one who voice acted JACK SKELLINGTON from THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS!!!! This is so crazy!!! Not only that, but the movie itself does sound a bit like a Oingo Boingo experience for children, even though this is a movie for everyone, because it's an amazing movie and I must write a post on it, but anyway, enough about this, let's talk about this song!
From the album of the same name, released in 1985, Dead Man's Party has lyrics that fit Halloween season like a comfortable glove! It's morbid, spooky, but also really funny and amazing to listen! The whole song has a ska vibe that it's so exotic and amazing! I was wanting to share something by this band for a while now, and since we're on Spooky season I found this to be the best opportunity to do so! I totally encourage you guys to give this one a try and remember: be careful not to be struck by lightning walking down the street!
And if you don't have Spotify, don't go lookin for lightinings to strike you, I have the Youtube link to this song right here!!

And this spooky song is what we have for today!!!! Thank you so much for being here reading this, you're the very best!!! See you guys next time!
