Who's space?
I have a My Space page if you care. I don't know if I'll use a lot, but it's over there on the left if you're interested.

Sometimes I feel like writing about things in a non-musical fashion. This is where those things end up.

My favorite time
You know those creepy guys you see walking around town late at night with hoodies on? Yeah, apperently I'm one of them. I came to this realization when I was out walking at ten tonight with my hoodie up. The downside to this is that people are generally bothered by you. The upside is that the other creepy guys don't bother you. Walks are an interesting thing for me. Whenever I go for a walk I either end up in a really good mood, or really, really sad. It seems pretty random too, like sometimes I'll go and expecting to end up sad, but I end up happy, and vice versa. Wow, now that I've bored you all, we'll change the subject.
I got the new Mae cd today "The Everglow". I've listened to it once, and here are my thoughts so far. It's a good cd. There aren't really any tracks on it that I don't like except for Cover Me, which I hate and wish didn't exsist. I think that every aspect of that song sucks. The other songs are good, especially the piano heavy ones (which I'm a sucker for). I think I like their first cd better though (just remember, this is after just one listen, and could change). Allow me to explain: Mae isn't really a rock band. I mean, they can write some sweet rock songs, but their strong point is the ones that aren't completely rockers. Destination: Beautiful was a good mix of soft, mid, and rock songs. The Everglow is almost all solid songs, but some of them can sound the same if you're not paying attention. I don't listen to Mae for their rock songs, I listen to them for the pretty stuff. So there we go. I guess you could call that a review, but not a very good one. Peace out.

Through the Night.
Well, well, well... Here we are again. I'm not sure what that's supposed to mean. I heard The Elms on the radio tonight, it was a real treat. Man, I sometimes forget how dang good they are. That's a mistake I'll not make twice. Seriously though, if you have never listened to Truth, Soul, Rock and Roll, you're missing out big time. I guess they... OMG!!!!!!11 Their DVD is out! I gotta go, later!

Sparkplug Minuet
It's always been a goal of mine to only blog if it's entertaining in some way or another, but I seem to have gotten away from that. I don't think the people I was trying to entertain read this anymore anyway though, so this will just turn into Normalville or something. Right now I'm listening to The Royal Tenenbaums soundtrack, and it's a delight. I'm also sitting here in front of my computer doing nothing, like I do with pretty much most of my time when I'm not working. That kinda bums me out, but this music kinda counteracts it. Weird post. If you haven't seen The Royal Tenenbaums, please do both of us a favor and watch it.
I wish you'd have done this for me when I was a kid

Everything you know is wrong.
Well, remember all that talk about U2? Wanna know where those tickets went? Up in smoke, that's where. Turns out I never even had a chance, and the show basically sold out in the pre-sale. It sucks, but I guess I can't say I'm surprised. That's just how I roll.
It's never enough

List of Life.
Well folks, in less than 8 hours, I'll be ordering tickets to see U2. I'm incredibly excited, because one of my life goals is to see U2. I know, that's incredibly sad, but also incredibly true. The really sad part is that list of life goals consists of like, one other thing I can think of. Yup, incredibly sad. I guess it could be worse. One of my life goals could be to see Simple Plan or something.
God bless the broken road

It's on, babies!
Adam has recently stated that "I have to be the boringest person alive." I'm going to have to politely disagree with you there, Adam. See, this is how it is, I am the boringest person alive. Ask anyone, they'll tell you. The rest of this blog will prove it. It's 2:00 in the morning, so I need to go to bed. That was all that I had to say prior to reading Adam's blog. See? The boringest person is me.

Refreshing.
Looks like Anberlin has some new songs up. The song "Symphony of Blasse" is what make that worth mentioning though. What's so special about it you ask? It's slow. Yeah, I'm surprised as you are. I kept waiting for the loud guitars and distortion to kick in, but they didn't. Not once. It's a pretty cool song I guess. Nothing amazing, but a good sign at least.

Wow.

Physicsy
Bought Half Life 2: Silver last night. So I guess that means CS: Source is being played by Harry right now. Yeah, I know. A game works on my computer, I'm just as amazed as you are. Looks fun, maybe I'll go play too. I hope that will be enough to bring certain folks home next weekend.

Act your age.
Better yet, dress your age. Working at the mall (way too much, I might add), I see all kinds of middle-aged women shopping in Vanity and dressing like their daughters. I mean seriously, who thinks that's a good idea? I could go my whole life without ever seeing a middle-aged women in a belly shirt, and be fine. But no, apparently they think I would like to see that. Just c'mon, you don't see old guys wearing baggy pants and crooked hats, yet you see the middle-aged ladies wearing fake thrift store shirts, and short pleated skirts. Why do they feel the need to keep up with the latest fashions in Seventeen? Last I checked it's called Seventeen because that's the age demographic they're shooting for. It's not called Fourty-Something. Stop the madness! Suffice it to say, my goat has been got.
