Blitzente is:
- newbie. Newbie as in 2008.
- very English.
- a fan of fantasy, sci-fi, webcomics, shounen anime, 90s videogames and science.
- a violinist at heart - small, squeaky and with an overinflated sense of self-importance.
- also a slightly better player of piano (but still quite bad).
- incompetent in two foreign languages, or three if you count American.
- fond of referring to herself in the third person.
- fond of reusing jokes that have already been done to death elsewhere.
- convinced that puns and pop-culture references are the purest forms of wit.
- all you can think about.
- your boyfriend now.
- trying to pinpoint exactly how pointless a wiki edit can get without being reverted.
- putting far too much thought into this bullet-point list.
- struggling to structure all of these sentences without sounding painfully forced.
- failing.
Blitzente is not:
- a very nice person at all.
- your broom.
- a bot, probably.
- desperate.
- on Windows.
- left-handed.

What I-ay
- Waves :(
- a less pitiful live show collection
- a valid excuse for TMBG to appear on Mythbusters, handily combining two of my fangirl loves and high explosives.
- the band to tour in the UK again. Somewhere on the continent would also be fine. I'd walk.

MEMO TO MYSELF: do the dumb things I gotta do
- maybe - maybe if I do enough templates somebody will finally love me
- Interpretations, chronologies, keys and lyrics are all time-wasting things, roughly in order of preference.
- Keyboard is big and intimidating and can be re-alphabetised.
- Check guitars for garbage left in there.
- Guitar Tab:I Might Be Giants, Too has a broken year and the stray ]] is part of the template, so it is annoyingly persistent.
- Guitar Tab:Different Town, Guitar Tab:Mission Control and Guitar Tab:Vitamins have basically the same problem but with artists.
- 1 2 3. WWWJDIC and copious guesswork! Woo.
- Move the Clock Radio songs from this show to either "Live 2000-08-19" like this or "2000-08-19 Brooklyn Show" like the rest of them. Which? I don't know, but the first is shorter. Having two is weird.
