Proto-Goth?

Wasn't in the mood to be grateful for anything yesterday until at ten in the evening. I even skipped my Combat class, which says a lot about my recent state of mind. But anyway, falling asleep right after C.S.I. is something to be grateful for; earlier this week I've been sleeping three to four hours a night. Imagine how my head begins to do the occasional nods when I'm really drowsy around twelve at work. My luck this sleepiness phase is overcome by some energy spike around one p.m. as today: I managed to fix the radio, find Radio Rock and the first song to be 'Six feet under the ground'! Damn, that song is good... I just found the band's official website (www.deathlikesilence.com) and discover that the vocalist, who I first considered to be Timo Kotipelto or Ari Koivunen turned out to be a woman, Miss Maya. She has a really low voice, and sounds great! I'll be going to see if I can find their album tomorrow after my very last day at work (then I'll be having my luxorious nine day summer holiday consisting of my father's official heritage discussion, the visit to a hospital to gather the required information of my vaccine history and get a B hepatitis shot).

Today I'm really very happy for Lost! Now I'm only looking forward to Dexter and all my favourites are on air again.

An extra meme of the day:
What Proto-Goth icon are you?
(http://www.okcupid.com/tests/8791930066078674271/what-Proto-Goth-Icon-are-you-)

I was none other than Rozz Williams.

"Our test has determined that you possess
48% Hellbentness, 46% Sanguinity, and 44% Creeps!
Well done!

Your Proto-Goth Icon Match is Rozz Williams, the founder of the rock group Christian Death. Christian Death took a relentlessly confrontational stand against organized religion and conventional morality, with an appetite for provocation that made Marilyn Manson look like Stryper. Regardless of who was leading or performing in the group, Christian Death set themselves up to shock, both in their cover art and their lyrics, which wallowed in blasphemy, morbidity, drug use, and sexual perversity. Williams was an extremist - in every sense of the word- dabbling in cross-dressing, bisexuality, Satanism, and even Christianity. Sadly, in 1998, a heroin-addicted Williams took his own life at the age of 34."

'Proto' is, by the way, a prefix used to indicate originality.
