Not that I care, but I am :)
There is this new song on the radio that I just think is so cute. Sappy and upbeat it is. Normally I'm not too drawn to these types but every now and then I enjoy them. This new song is "Bruises" by Chairlift. Not sure why I like it so but I just shared it with the man. He doesn't really hear new songs anymore unless somebody posts something on the lj I think.
He enjoyed it too, which is nice. It made me of think of another upbeat song that I really enjoy "Le Disko" by Shiny Toy Guns. It reminds me of my clubbing days and all the fun I would have with my friends drinking and dancing. Those days are long gone. Sometimes I wish I could go out and have a night like that again, but being married and with baby soon to come I don't see that ever happening again. Now I think if I ever got out to a club it would be some mellow middle age club where dancing is all sedate and well mannered.
There are so many songs and bands I was just thinking that I would like to hear more of, or again. Arcade Fire and Yeah Yeah Yeahs are two that stick out in my mind. Ever since my apartment was broken into in Santa Cruz, I have only picked up a handful of CDS. I guess having the 45 CDs stolen and never returned really put a crimp in my desire to invest in music again. I know there are all those wonderful internet ways to get music, but I'm not a tech person and I don't own an IPOD or other MP3 player. I still listen to CDs and the radio.
I am however just discovering that youtube is great for watching "music" videos. Honestly, I didn't know that they made them anymore it has been so long since I've seen one. I guess not having of the cable contributes to that.
In other news, Jamers and I are almost through our most recent round of Buffy. We are slightly more than half way through season 7 - the season that sanity forgot. Really I don't hate it that much, I just really hate like the last two episodes. I've said it before but it stands repeating: worse series finale ever! I think we'll move on to Babylon 5 next. I want to get in as much adult movies/TVDs as we can before little one shows up. I have a feeling that many kids movies/TVDs will be watched over the next er, I have no idea how many years. Yet another reason I want a TV in our bed room so we can watch mommy/daddy stuff. That sounded sorta naughty huh? Good ;)
Snow is gone, for now and I'm happy. I was so sick of driving with chains.
I didn't have to report for Jury Duty yesterday due to inclement weather! Wooty Woo. Unlike California I guess Jury Duty here is calling in only for the day you are summoned, not a whole week. I'm hoping that is how it works cause I don't want to not show up and get in trouble tomorrow.
In any case the food of dindins is ready and so on to another episode of Buffy before bedtime.
Oh, and we got the crib and James put it together and it is way bigger in the tiny kid room than at Babies R Us. It is pretty though and matches the rest of the wood in the house.

Save Me by Aimee Mann
You look like a perfect fit
For a girl in need of a tourniquet
But can you save me
Come on and save me
If you could save me
From the ranks of the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone
'Cause I can tell
You know what it's like
The long farewell of the hunger strike
But can you save me
Come on and save me
If you could save me
From the ranks of the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone
You struck me dumb like radium
Like Peter Pan or Superman
You will come to save me
C'mon and save me
If you could save me
From the ranks of the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone
'Cept the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone
But the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone
C'mon and save me
Why don't you save me
If you could save me
From the ranks of the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone
Except the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone
Except the freaks who could never love anyone

The lyrics just don't do the song justice. I love it so much. I've got it again as we picked up the Magnolia soundtrack not to long ago. It just seems to fit into my way of thinking, my life as it were. I was just listening to it and had to share.
