Short Post and a Song #93: Très chic


I've been considering changing my profile picture on here to this gem of a photograph. I believe it encapsulates my individuality quite well. Thoughts??:



Très chic, non?

"Memories" by Panic! At The Disco





I was OBSESSED with Panic! At The Disco in high school. I knew the words to each and every song on their first album and had a crush on Brendon Urie so fierce that I still can't say I've totally let go of it.

But then with college came my determination to finally be a "cool girl". Some of my closer friends knew of my fervent PATD love, but around others I played up my love of classic rock while my other more "immature" musical tastes fell by the wayside.

But now I've reached the point where I'm willing to just say it: I FUCKING LOVE PANIC! AT THE DISCO. Ahhhh, that felt good. Cathartic.

You observant Velocininjas may have noticed that I stopped blogging for roughly seven months, then abruptly started blogging again. I was going through some rough times, guys. If you would like more information about those rough times, follow me on Twitter and scroll way, way down to around June 23rd onward. There you'll find what I've begun referring to in my mind as the Great Twittersplosion of 2015. 

Just, if you do read all 8,000 words of it, make sure to read the replies. Don't get me wrong: it's all a big batch of crazy either way, but things make at least MORE coherent sense if you read the replies.

I also wanted to announce that this will be the last Short Post and a Song on this blog. Don't start weeping and carrying on just yet, though. I DO plan to keep doing Short Post and a Song, but from now on it will live on my Tumblr, where I am currently posting the pages of my very first hardcover book. 

P.S. The book is entitled Amerex: Land of the Unicorns and I wrote it at age eleven.

Short Post and a Song #92: Victory Litter

Dude, congrats on selling your house. Seriously. My parents have been trying to do that for YEARS and have had no luck whatsoever.

However, your victory in the arena of house-selling does not give you a free pass on littering:


Are those signs even biodegradable??

"Fairy Tail Main Theme" by Taylor Davis and Lara de Wit


 

If you love great anime, great violin, and great piano, then HOO BOY NELLIE you are in for a treat tonight! The first fifty or so episodes of Fairy Tail, which features some of the best English dubbing you will ever have the pleasure of hearing, are on Netflix. 

To you SAO fans, why YES, that is the lovely Cherami Leigh (AKA Asuna AKA the coolest female ever to walk the anime earth (though Erza of Fairy Tail gives her a run for her money)) doing Lucy Heartfilia's voice.

Short Post and a Song #91: Fiery Bird Vengeance


This car was sitting on my street parked in the same place for days; long enough that the birds got angry and took their fiery vengeance upon it:

"Moves Like Jagger" by Maroon 5 ft. Christina Aguilera




This song has been a fervent obsession of mine for months now. And to all of you who think you're too "cool" for Maroon 5 and Christina Aguilera, you can just shut the fuck up right now. I've seen Maroon 5 live twice now and they rank among some of the best concerts I've ever seen. 

Don't look at this as an insufferably poppy song about the Stones; think of it as a wonderful opportunity for a whole new generation to learn how fucking cool Mick Jagger is.
