Same Old, Same Old
With the new The Civil Wars album coming out next month, I guess I thought they were done with their hiatus, but I just read that these two are not even on speaking terms. That really is crushing to hear. Just listen to them! This is a new song from the upcoming album.
That croon. Don't get me started.
That stupid transitional segment in the song (2:50-whatever) almost destroys it for me...but not quite. I heard this song, got really excited, then had a listen at this group's other music. And...they sound like a male version of Evanescence. Very dramatic, supposedly hard rock. I couldn't find a song I liked as much as this one--just love the piano and almost dissonant beginning. Mhmm..
I found this song looking at Lyanna/Rhaegar fan videos. Yes...I'm obsessed with Game of Thrones and that particular theory. And I may have one or two favorites. But I would feel ridiculous posting them....
Okay, HERE! Mock away, but I love the books so much and this theory just strikes a chord with me. If you don't know the theory/books, this won't make any sense. And fan videos can only reach a certain quality after all. Most of the Lyanna/Rhaegar fan videos are terrible...this is the best one I've found.

I suppose I should write about what's been happening in my life, but all I can see is the huge wave of change coming my way. Some of it's good, some of it's bad. And, of course, it's going to happen all around the same time.
But either way I am affected, I myself still can't seem to feel anything for life. I still feel emotions, naturally. I randomly find myself crying over the thought of losing my step-dad's cat while at work (because Mom and Bill are getting a divorce and he'll take her with him) and over other thoughts that just appear out of nowhere. I get angry over other things, feel an impish satisfaction over something no one else saw and doesn't matter in the long run, or, while driving home from work, I find myself keeling over in near-hysterical laughter at my own irrational feelings/choices/actions/reactions. Every day, I recognize some common mistake I make as it happens and feel like I'm greeting an old friend. And then I have to hold back from snickering over it all. None of these things are exactly positive, though I congratulate myself on being able to not take myself too seriously...when I can, that is.
But life, what is it? Where am I going and what's the point?
Am I whining again? Sorry.
