Things That Concern Me: Summer 2013 Edition

It’s almost the UNofficial end to summer. I capitalized the UN because last year I saw people writing on Labor Day that summer was “officially” over, and it burned me to my core, at first I thought it was the tacos I had for lunch, but then after further investigation I realized, the burn was in fact due to the inaccurate use of the word official. I wish I could tell you the majority of my thoughts and concerns this summer were deep and meaningful, but they really weren’t. I’m not saying I haven’t thought Trayvon Martin or Christopher Lane. I’m not saying I haven’t thought Syria and where it is exactly or what the climate is like. I’m just saying there are other things that I think about more often and probably more passionately about. Example: I have thought about the tough Outstanding Drama Series category for the Emmy’s more than what I’ve just mentioned. I’m not kidding you, that category is more Sophie’s choice, than the actual  Sophie's Choice ( because there’s five, not

My VMA High/Lowlights

She’s Just Being Miley A lot of people (four, four people) have asked me what I thought about Miley’s VMA performance last night. To tell you the truth, I didn’t give the same answer across the board, I feel that is a very hard thing to do with something that was all over the place. Sitting here now it’s hard for me to find the right words, or any words to describe it. I started getting texts around  6:15 Pacific Time  and I will say they and Twitter may have desensitized me a bit when  9:15  came around. I feel like this next part is going to come off as me defending the performance, which very, very consciously I don’t want to do. I also feel there is a part of me, subconsciously that is telling me to defend it. I want to try and have Miles’ back. Wait. No. I think I got it. I don’t want to defend the PERFORMANCE, I want to defend MILEY. There we go guys. No need to 5150 me. Okay, here we go… Um. Alright, so it’s like this… “Dancing with Molly” If we were to base he

My Favorite Songs Playlist - Part 2

Oh crap. Here we are again... it's  Robin Sparkles 2, y'all!!!!!  Just kidding. I wish I was Robin Sparkles, but here we are again.  Another list of my favorite songs of all time that will never get old to me. I know you have been on the edge. Sitting, waiting, wishing (calm down people, Jack Johnson, will pop in another playlist) impatiently for weeks and weeks. You Keep Me Hangin' On - The Supremes Somewhere in my superficial soul there is a deepness...and this song is in that undiscovered territory . Not much to say about it beside the fact that it is awesome and a fun "Let me get the hell over whatever you are doing to me. I'm so fed up" song. Favorite line- And there ain't nothing I can do about it. Skyscraper - Demi Lovato  Please don't be surprised that I have another playlist, with another Demi Lovato song on it. It will be a common occurrence. I've been a Demi fan from the beginning. There is no denying the girl has a voice and I
