The state of me:
My house is covered in tissues, tea cups, and cough drop wrappers. I am never going to get better, and I've accepted my fate now. I won't try to fight it anymore. I have The Never-ending Cold. I will adjust my life accordingly.
What I cannot accept, however, is the fact we're out of coffee. I even KNEW this yesterday and then totally forgot until NOW when I woke up (again) at something like five coughing and never got back to sleep. I gave up, went to to the kitchen and halfway there remembered OH FUCK WE'RE TOTES OUT OF COFFEE! So, oh, fuck, we're totally out of coffee.
Since it's on my mind (hahaha, oh god, when will it leave my mind?), here is some more music:
(This post is mostly for the vast majority of my fl who aren't into this whole crazy, crazy band slash thing and are hoping this blows ever faster than my BSG fixation.)
Panic – I Write Sins unplugged, live, whatever
Since Rachel didn't have this, I assume others are equally bereft. If you're on the bubble w/ Panic because they are Panic! (and I totally get it, folks, but remember that the shame you have today will be lying tattered beneath your concert t-shirt on the floor of your bedroom next week!) then this is the song for you.
Gym Class Heroes – New Friend Request
Why aren't there more songs about myspace? Clearly, there needs to be. This song makes me laugh and at the same time go “hm, well, yeah, you're laughing because it's true.” Romance in the age of the internets. I can't tell why this group isn't more popular. I mean that musicwise and not slashwise. They're good.
My Chemical Romance – I Don't Love You This is the ONE My Chem song I can say “I like that one.” Mostly they aren't my thing. I just like the band themselves, not the music. Ok, and I like Gerard's comic.
Prostitution Is the World's Oldest Profession (And I, Dear Madame, Am a Professional) UNLIKE THIS BAND. Ok, so LOVE Cobra Starship. I'm not even ironic about this. However, that's only because the band already took over Ironyland and built a large sparklepalace/disco.
Guilty Pleasure They know you don't take them seriously, and that's OK, because Gabe is hilarious. Please click that link and read the fanfiction that Gabe wrote about HIMSELF. How can you not at least find him amusing?
Damn You Look Good And I'm Drunk (Scandalous) God, this song KILLS.
The Hush Sound song I put up last night.
I haven't listened to the whole Cute Is What I Aim For album yet, but I will get back to you on that when I do.
For good measure, here's a link to someone on my fl being a cute fangirl:
Pete/Patrick=Stupid Pet Tricks!
Fandom as an entity has been a little wonky over the last year or so. I'm in several at once normally, so I see a lot of nonsense that I have no part in, like a lot of us do, and it's been a long time since I could open my fl and enjoy it more than be annoyed by it (which is what lead me to jf in the first place, not that sky-is-falling mentality of lj going super-mega-low-mart). Mostly, what annoys me is people being assholes, though, not people being super excited about something I think is crappy. A lot of stuff you like, I think is crappy, but if you're really enthused about it and capslock and link and act like a thirteen year old? Generally, that makes me happy for you, and me being happy for you means I'm happy, too. Let's all be happy for each other for a change. Download the music and Pete Wentz will brainwash you and you can be happy w/ the rest of the loonies. Wouldn't that be fun?
