Drive-By Post Before I Vanish To Do Laundry

[redbrunja]

Someone online mentioned a Beauty & The Beast Castle that I need to go see while I'm in France. Is this ringing anyone's bells?

Also...

-What does Gojyo's shampoo smell like? I assume, with his hair, he probably using something fairly quality, but I can't think of what. I'm tempted to go with Tea Tree Oil Shampoo, which smells minty and green and tingles pleasantly, but since that's what I use, I'm not sure it's allowed.

-During the summer pzb, my mother, possibly renegadekitsuneand I had a conversation about the ikkou's musical taste, which is notable for the way every single person said immediately, 'Gojyo listens to rock.' Which is kind of a gimme, but still, aren't we sympathico? So my question is, what are the ikkou's musical guilty pleasures? What is the music that Gojyo plays that Hakkai actually likes? For Gojyo himself, I think he wouldn't admit to liking Ray Lamontagne, but would because that artist  has this wonderful sense of romance combined with the doubt that love even exists. (Go listen to "Jolene" - it's gorgeous and totally on my 'Forget Me Not' playlist, and only smillaraaqis going to know what that means.) 

Also, I went to Giverny today, which is where Monet painted and it was utterly gorgeous and so, so peaceful, I just wanted to stay there listening to music and looking at the flowers, in this lovely, hazy misty morning, with a truly lovely dove-gray sky and the birds chirping.

What was less fun was that while I was walking to Monet's house I had my head turned and walked straight into the lamp post that was for some unfathomable reason in the middle of the sidewalk. Seriously, it was a total slap-stick moment; I expected to see Charlie Chaplan hanging around. Almost as painful as it was embarrassing.

*Nods nods* Yep. I'm thinking some Charlie Daniels and Hank Williams Jr. Maybe even some Johnny Cash or Waylon Jennings. Outlaws for the win. If it's rocking enough for Kid Rock, I think it would be rocking enough for Gojyo. ^_~

Mine is bizarrely eclectic too. :-D

I hadn't thought of Prince. That's a pretty good call.

Maybe a little Willie Nelson, for that sort of hard-living, sleeping-around but still romantic at heart under it all vibe, too. And Johnny Cash is a must, that man's coolness just transcends genre.

And Prince has a very Gojyo-on-the-prowl vibe to me in that even at his dirtiest, there's still a very teasing wittiness about it all and an emphasis on flattering the target of his attentions and promising her a very good time. I just cannot hear bits like "let me show you, baby, I'm a talented boy" without picturing them as winking Gojyo pickup lines. ;)
