Give me all the time I pay, so I can purchase a blue hat for a blue day.

I'm really a little indifferent today. This could be in part due to my 3 hours of sleep before work. I don't know though. It sounds plausible.


Ebay is a fun way to kill time. And by killing, I mean completely slaughtering my entire bank account in less than 45 minutes.
It is amazing how many Haircut 100 items one can find browsing through ebay. (Most of them are from the UK, so you have to remember that American bucks are like 5 for every one of their's. I will keep that in mind on my next ebay adventure.) I won an awesome little tie-dye guitar pin. I came across some cute "I <3 Nick Heyward" pins. Adorable. Lots o' magazine articles with cool pictures that I would love to own. But $50 for some colored paper doesn't seem feasible to me right now. Perhaps it will when i get paid Friday...

Last night I won a "Blue Hat For a Blue Day" 7" for 8 bucks. I've been listening to this song and "Whistle Down the Wind" on repeat for days. At first they sounded, you know, 80's-y but now they sound like musical awesomeness. So it was a good addition (addiction?) for my record collection. But honestly, I really wanted it because I liked the picture on the cover...

Oh Nick Heyward, you blue eyed cool cat. Who wants a blue hat. For a blue day. (alright, I'm done. Sorry. I will understand if you stop talking to me forever.)


I also came across this gem of a pic:
Hahaha, what is going on here? I almost bought this for it's sheer ridiculousness.

Well, that and because it's Nick Heyward. And he is holding a banana.

So, on my unfantastic day (I had to.), here are two videos for beautiful viewing pleasure. But don't thank me...thank the banana man.


This is the one I'm currently listening to. It's been about an hour now. Still going strong.


This one makes me want to go out and buy a suitcase.


P.S.- I just recently...as of 3:25 this afternoon, recruited my mom to fundom. She likes "Walking the Dog." So, that's been three people so far. I'm doing well. My friend compared me to Manson. I like to think I'm a lot nicer.

I love love. I love plus one. I love fun.

So...I successfully sucked my good friend (the one who got married which I sported the beehive for as previously talked about) into the realms of fun. She cannot stop listening to Aim & Ignite. So, I'm sneaking some Format in there for her too. Anything Nate Ruess does is gold. Pure solid shimmery awesome melodic gold. Everything he touches, also gold.

You can't see it right now, but that micrphone right there is slowly turning into gold. Gold I say!


As I am listening to The Format and becoming very very nostalgic, I'm finally over the fact that they indeed are over. fun. is such an awesome sound and I am grateful for their new album. (One day I will write a long extensive report on just why The Format was a huge band for me and all that whatsis.) But part of me will still love The Format. I don't care what it does to me.

Until their lips start to move, and your friends talk music...sing that shit Nate! Aw man!

I foresee absolutely no sleep in my future. Why?

Because fun. just put up another new song.
How the hell do they come up with this shit? Seriously. This came from a living, breathing, REAL person's mind. I want my LIFE to feel like this.
I don't know where to begin. Or, more specifically, I don't know what to say. I can't describe why this song is so magical.
It just IS.
Wow. The lyrics are exellent.
So I call you out
Just to feel a little bit better about myself
I do, baby I do, I do, I do
Until their lips start to move, and your friends talk music
I say "I've never heard the tune"
But I have, I just hate the band
'cause they remind me of you.

The voice. I've said this countless times: Nate Ruess is the man.
Sure, I've heard this song before live. I loved it then. I used to watch the live footage I captured from their show at the Troc (which I severely overplayed). But the album one sounds so fresh. It's like a whole new song. So, now I can overplay a whole new version! Yay!
Did I mention that I've been listening to this song nonstop since 9:30. It's 12:17. And I am pumped.

Oh come on, oh come on what's a girl to do? Nothing, cause I can't stop listenin' to this song by you!
Dammit fun. You're preparing me for under-eye baggage at work tomorrow. sigh
ALL THE PRETTY GURLS ON A SATURDAY NIGHT!
