  • Falling Asleep on the Radiator

    I was still decently hammered during the recording of this. The editting was done later in the day after a few more hours of sleep.

    I do not advocate excessive drinking at all. I am not even a fan of being trashed (tispy is where it's at) but it happened. Things just happen, y'know? I am not proud of vomitting, being reckless, and being at a risk for alcohol poisening but I lived and have a story to tell. I just always try to find the humor in every thing and incidently some people do find druken episodes funny...while others DO look down on it. Hey, I'm not gonna judge.

  • THE REAL BIRTH OF MY BLOG!

    Ok, so the blog is called Murphy Rant...I, Megan Murphy, decided to finally flip on my camera started ranting about whatever was on my mind. O RLY? YA RLY. It's my first video so allow for error, please. ^_^

    If that was remotely entertaining...there might be more for you to enjoy!

    The radio show Mic Check! is based out of the Purdue campus in West Lafayette, Indiana. It features myself, original master-mind Nick Goldstein, all around funny guy Robert Knorr, a chilled out guy named Jonathan Butz, and a couple other random blokes that crawl into the studio at times.

    We just started our second season!

    Of course we play good music, you're bound to discover an amazing band listening to us, but we have conversations about but not limited to video games, music, nerdisms, current events, comics, nothingness, and randomness. But we're up for anything! It's just a geeky good spontaneous/unscripted time.

    It's on every Monday at 7:30PM. The FREE internet feed is downloadable at www.purdue.edu/wccr

    Feel free to listen to the other wonderful talents on WCCR as well! If you tune in someone is bound to be living it up. Feel free to call and patronize us; we're up for any praise or any critism. We're trying to make a wonderful listening experience. Call in at 765-494-9773.

    We also have a website called www.atheinternet.com. (Also at the master-mind of Nick Goldstein.) We're down until Oct. 13th for matinence but our forums are still up and awesome!

    At the internet, we have our webcomic "Look What I Found on the Internet", a video series in progress called 'The Unrealist," a forum where anyone is welcome; promises endless fun; and all thoughts are welcome, and of course the podcasts from the first season of Mic Check! and an off-season series I had nothing to do with called, "The Creative Process."

  • Haha, found this on my computer and it made me smile.

    Dear Mom,

    There is another bathroom.  I understand you are approaching some golden years in your life and you apparently can’t clench your butt checks anymore. However, shower time is ME time. Shower time has no room for you or your mutated post-gastric bypass mud babies. Shower time is maybe the only 15 minutes of my day where you and your other kids are not clawing at my back to do stuff for them. (Which I gladly do by the way) So when you barge in to have explosive diarrhoea it kind of mixes into the steam and creates what can only be described as a warfare-grade swirl of noxious death fog. Not to sound melodramatic, but it kind of ruins shower time.

    So, even though you have to go NOW and walking down two flights of stairs to the other bathroom must sound foreign and barbaric to you, it does exist.

    Dear Dad,

    You do not know how to hack computers. You don’t know anything about computers. Quit trying to “fix” mine; I notice when you fuck with it because I know about computers.

    Dear Brother,

    Start eating with your mouth closed and we coo’, a’ight?

  • How it Came and Went

    "Bouncing up though the neighbourhood, jiving

    O’ the sky is charmed like my dance is the oboe!

    Snapping fingers, count tapping toes

    Yeah, how the jazz goes to the rhythm

    in the puddles as I pounder, wait, and  go."

     

    August surely came and went. I remember during summer all I thought about was how badly I wished August would come. My house is not usually my sanctuary, so I was eager to get back to school. Make my own damn food, clean my own damn apartment, and care about my own damn self. Not that I mind taking care of anyone, I enjoy it, but if you’re healthy there is a point where it gets ridiculous and that would be my family.

    Beside all that, there are good friends to see, shenanigans to unfold, and promises to keep to myself. All things I’ve been waiting for to happen in August, at Purdue.

    You know, nothing comes soon enough if you wish too much! But you know what, it’s still worth it!

    Before August came, I could feel my brain rotting. It feel at home when I can keep filling my head with knowledge and useless banter. I like the screams of, “Write this! It’s important!” And certainly now, I won’t forget it.

    There have been many happy reunions, things I was waiting for before I even left home for the summer. I use to not miss people so badly.

    I’m back at school now with my classes and my friends. I couldn’t be happier.

    My plant pathology class is a definite joy in my week. We examine all sorts of disease and fungus that can infect the plants I will one day care for and sell. I’m graceful as ever in the lab and spilt blue dye almost immediately...but I make wonderful cross-sections of leaves so it evens out. (Samples must be thinner than a human hair.) We looked at one fungus called corn smut; it’s a pretty common thing. The ear of corn becomes covered in these mushrooms that look like a cluster of gray bulbous tumours. I studied both fascinated and horrified; it looked quite unappetizing. My professor, a balding white-haired man, has a very friendly demeanour. He stood near me until I felt his presence. His expression was mystified, half serious. He looked me in the eye and said, “I dare you to eat one of those.”

    I winched.

    “It’s a delicacy in Mexico, you know?”

    I shook my head, but he still assures me he will cook me corn smut...with the fixings.

     

    Occasionally I write songs...I wrote the one above, haha. Listen?

About Me

  • I puke rainbows. I am a self-proclaimed dork-a-saurus who hugs trees, has ADD for butterflies, and is epically spacey, constantly smiling, and confused by moving traffic. I enjoy being a sarcasitc, smiling, spastic ranting asshole for shits and giggles but I am also a free spirit who loves nature and chilling on the grass. I interject singing into normal conversation and tend to talk so fast that I run out of breath. I like to make people laugh and smile and have no schedule or bed time.
