music makes my heart go thump

Things to look forward to are vital to my mental health.

Being the fortunate woman I am, I have a few on my list. I thought I should point them out.

This upcoming Monday, I'm going to see Meiko live at The Hummingbird downtown. It's only a $10 ticket! That makes the joy that much brighter. I've never been to this venue, but it seems low-key and chill. I am very much looking forward to sipping a drink and hearing some acoustic and a enjoying a pretty girl with a pretty voice.

On Mother's Day, (hello, special awesome treat for me) Kenneth and I, along with some friends, are going to Atlanta to see Nine Inch Nails on their NINJA Tour, also headlining Jane's Addiction. I'm getting a sweet deal here. I've been a NIN fan for years, and one of my dying wishes is to see a live show (I'll get to more of those dying live show wishes later), and here it is, opportunity followed with my utmost glee.

If Kenneth and I play our financial cards right, another Summer musical shenanigan may be in our future. That being the Mayhem Festival 09. I'm in it for Marilyn Manson, truth be told. I don't mind seeing Slayer, though. No complaints here. If we go, we're going to end up with lawn tickets (less expensive) and.. will have to set up baby sitting arrangements with my mother-in-law.

Sigh. I am thankful for the live music coming my way. It fulfills me in a way nothing else can.

oh, the humans.

We're all in this world just trying to get through. We are trying to form relationships the best we know how. Day to day, hour to hour. It can be daunting. I try to see the good in people. But, they make it difficult.

And confrontation is the worst. I try to avoid it it at all cost.

Life so simply boils down to people, language, THINKING before we speak? Emotional regulation. Regulation. Regulation.
Tact?
Yes, all of the above.

silly cat

I was reading through my archives, and hot damn did I used to have a lot to say. I'm sure I still do, I think I'm just more tired and blank.
I don't want to be blank!

My kitty, Hocus, has started to climb on TOP of the TV and to lay and stare around the room. I got a picture:


I decided to title this "I Can Haz the Remotes?"
Hahahaha.
When it's not Drake doing something silly and/or crazy, it's Hocus. Never ending amusement, I swear.

pregnant. With twins.




or
April Fools Day.

:D Had to, even though I probably fooled NO one.

I need to re-add all of my links, I haven't forgotten any of my daily reads. I just changed my layout the other day and never got around to adjusting links.

Here I sit, at my computer, with ear plugs in my ears. Don't ask.
