I've Got The Brains, You've Got The Looks. Let's Make Lotsa Money.

List seven songs you are into right now. No matter what the genre, whether they have words, or even if they're not any good, but they must be songs you're really enjoying now. Post these instructions in your livejournal along with your 7 songs. Then tag 7 other people to see what they're listening to.

Alright, I felt the need to take the challenge.

Beauty and the Geek Theme - The Petshop Boys. I'm so into this song it's not even funny. It's hilarious and the show is awesome. I heard the song on the radio and had no idea it is a real song! It's ridiculous and catchy. Sort of.

Boogie Wonderland - Earth Wind and Fire I just realized (thanks to Happy Feet) how amazing this song really is. It's so dancy and wonderful and brightens up the spirit of anyone in the room.

Superhereos - Daft Punk This song makes me think of playing video games on Jeff Doyle's HUGE flat screen t.v.! It makes me feel high and happy. I'm not really into depressing music right now.

Breaking Free - High School Musical Just because the first time I watched this movie I was super high and hated it all the way through until the very end during this song. Then I realized just how cool High School Musical really is.

Sexyback - Justin Timberlake Easily the best song on the album even though the rest are all good too. J-TLake is the hottest guy in Hollywood right now. Go see Alpha Dog.

For The Windows In Paradise, For The Fatherless In Ypsilanti - Sufjan Stevens The only sad music I will stand is from Sufjan. He's just amazing.

We Used To Be Friends - The Dandy Warhols I'm rekindling my love for The Dandy Warhols. They are fun. That's all I ask for.

Sometimes I Want To Call You But I Know You Won't Be There.

Last night I dreamt that Ethan died. That everything that happened with finding out about Lorelei and Coop was happening all over again and that I had to talk to people about how sad it was. It was weird because we aren't together anymore and I wasn't sure how to act because of the fact that we haven't hung out in like 3 weeks. I can't believe it's been that long. It's weird.

The weirdest part about having a death dream is when a real death happens the next day. Today we had to put my mom's dog, Cosmo down. He was sick for about a month, coughing a lot and they thought he had pnemonia. They gave him medication but it didn't work and he got worse and worse. On Saturday my mom took him to the pet emergency room because he couldn't even move and didn't eat a thing for a whole day. So she took him in and for two nights he was there while they tested him. He became oxygen dependent and couldn't leave this little room. He had an IV and everything. It was so sad. My mom was crying all day because she knew he was going to have to go down. I didn't cry until the doctor told us he was bleeding into his chest cavity and probably wouldn't make it. I cried a lot more than I thought I would. My sister cried too and Maddie was with us as well.

So we sat with him and pet him and said goodbye. Then my mom and I were there when they put him down. It was very weird because one minute he was breathing really heavily (because it was so hard) and then he just stopped. He died and he was only 3 1/2. So young. I loved him even though we had him for less than a year. I love you Cosmo!

I'm tired of so much death and I'm tired of having something to be sad about everytime I'm happy again. Le sigh. That is life.

Standing In The Front Yard, Telling Me How I'm Such A Fool. Talkin' 'bout How I'll Never Ever Find A Man Like You.

So lately I've been the happiest person in the world. I met a guy who is absolutely awesome. I'm sorta pissed because I meet him and he's a genuinely nice, fun, sweet and gorgeous person and he lives an hour away and goes to school in Arizona. It sucks. But honestly he has no idea how much he's done for me anyway. He literally helped me get over Ethan and that is invaluable to me. Not because I wanted to get over Ethan, because I think he's great and everything but lately he hasn't put in any effort to be my friend and I don't care that much. I'm sad because I still wanted to be friends but if he doesn't want to, there's nothing I can do I guess.
So Cal (that's his name) has done me a huge favor. But don't just think that he was a rebound guy and that it. He's not. He's someone I wish I could have (and still want to) get to know better, because although we don't have a huge amount in common, I felt like we could have been good together. Ya know, opposites attract and all. He's just so sweet and interesting that I couldn't help but be drawn to him.
Let me just say that he's the exact exact exact opposite of Ethan in every way possible. And I love it. He's in the air force, he wants to be a fighter pilot, he eats meat, he reads Tom Clancy, listens to crappy butt-rock like Nickleback (yeah oh well, he's still cool in my book), and is basically just a regular guy. The 'all-american boy' in every way. And he's exactly what I would want if he just lived here. Damn it. Also, my father would just about gizz his pants if I dated a guy like that. (That's FILTHY and I should have never said that. Ew.) Alright guys, there's my sad story about the gorgeous guy that I didn't have enough time with.
