This is a very random blog in the middle of the night... okay, so it's 5 in the morning, so what? I would kill for a shower right now. Really. Not gonna happen, though.
I really hate being on my period. I really do. But then again... does anyone like it? That would just be sick, really.


Well, I found the new Sick Puppies album at the first place I stopped. It was amazing, and it's really not that bad. I didn't have high expectations because... well... you know... the "second" (even though, it's technically the third) album is not as great. I think that's just because it's not what you fell in love with. You have to fall in love with this new stuff and either accept it as the same band or just shrug it off, saying "It's not the same," because it isn't. And I also kept in mind that there are some songs from "Dressed Up As Life" that I would skip if it came up on my iPod.

So I've had the melody or music or whatever from "So What I Lied" and "Maybe" stuck in my head.

But you know what song I REALLY like?
Alright, there's a couple.
Well, I was driving when "I Hate You" came on (because I completely skipped over "War," hearing it like a billion times... although it's apparently different. I need to get around to discovering which version is better. Which reminds me. [mini-rant time!] I REALLY don't like when there are different versions of songs, and the version I like BETTER is HARDER to find. Isn't that just ridiculous?). So, yeah, it came on, and I COULD NOT stop smiling like a kid in a giant candy store. Chris was with me and he found it... odd, I suppose, that I giggled. Because it's obviously not much of a song you'd normally giggle at.
But the song I'm really talking about (or what to talk about) is "White Balloons." How is this song so effin' SHORT? I mean, really, how long is it? Okay, about 3:30, but that is WAY too short for me. At the end, I'm always like "It's over already?!"
And I love how Emma sings in this album (by herself)! It's so... lovely. Once again, I was driving when... "Don't Walk Away" was ending, and Emma was singing, and I was just all "Oh my god! It's Emma!"

'Cause dude... remember the concert with Evanescence, and Emma sang by herself... in... "Anywhere But Here," I believe? Yeah. It had to be. That was such a thrill. Well, of course all the other stuff.... but when they do things that I hadn't heard or seen before, you just get that rush.


So I was looking at Sick Puppies's tour schedule.
They're coming to Seattle. Sept. 5. For a festival. Before going back to their tour with these people and don't even BOTHER coming up to the Northwest. I really hate it when tours do that. All those South Carolina, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, and whatever-you-name states, they ALWAYS get visited.
I kinda wished we lived in Seattle... for like a week... so I could go to that festival.
Which reminds me... do I still want to go the TOM Fest? August 21st. Hmmm.... ask me later.




That's what was in the booklet. Things are repeated at bit. The music really... intensifies at "Angels lift me." I really love this song.
