Theme for September…fuck if I know. FUCK. IF. I. KNOW. I feel like this month’s list is like a 3 year old on a sugar high who also happens to have attention deficit disorder and has to pee at the same time but sees his dog chasing a his tail. There was no depression. No anxiety. A lot of moments of “meh”, a few moments of … Continue reading Songs of My Life: September 2016
Mentally, I was all over the goddamn place for May. Most of it was in a good headspace but damn the days where it was a bad headspace. I’m good at recognizing patterns my brain takes and signs of where it’s going to fuck with me so I can luckily do a preemptive strike on most of those bad headspace days but the days I couldn’t stop it from happening seemed like what the fuck moments times a billion. I survive though. Mostly through sheer will and my sidekick, music. Some of those bad headspace days, you just crawl into your bed, pull the blankets over your head and go to bed the moment your day ends and some days you share those bad headspace days with someone and their simple words of understanding help more than they know.

Better late than never! Here are the songs for December 2015. I didn’t have internet or cell service for most of December and I’m not even mad about it. I started this posted a few days ago, but finally have respectable wifi/internet to post it today. I hope everyone had a great NYE and that 2016 is filled with Universal light love and magic for … Continue reading Songs of My Life: December 2015
October has been the month of changes for me, taking leaps, and realizing that life is a choose your own adventure novel and that if you don’t like the choice you made 10 seconds ago, you can make a new one right now. All the songs have been notes to my inner self that I am going to be okay and that fear can be conquered … Continue reading Songs of My Life: October 2015
July was just July. Nothing crazy happened. Nothing bad happen. It seemed too long and it seemed too short. I was madly inspired by friends (thank you Amy and to Melissa & Chris). July was just what it was and I’m okay with that. Continue reading “Songs of My Life: July 2015”

“Papillion” by Editors This is probably one of my favorite Editors song. I just love the lyrics: “Darling, just don’t put down your guns yet, if there really was a God here, he’d have raised a hand by now.” “Hey I Don’t Know” by Kongos April was the discovery of new music and I fell for this band. I love the drums and bass in … Continue reading SONGS OF MY LIFE: April 2014
We have a super soft spot in our hearts for Editors. Basically, they could sing the McDonald’s Big Mac Theme song and we’d give it five stars. They can do no wrong in our eyes and here is a wonderful cover of “Abel” by The National.

March only had 6 songs. It was a weird month. One where I finished the first draft of my novel The Sound of Madness (yay!) and couldn’t find the energy or motivation to start the second draft (boo!). A month that brought the beginning of Spring with snow and as it comes to an end, I am happy to see March end. I’m over snow. I’m over gray skies … Continue reading Songs of My Life: March 2014
