stupid guys & metal music nostalgia trip

This week was seemed more stressful than normal for some reason. I’m thinking it’s because I went back to work after a week off so my body was just like “NOPE” to being at work in general. Also I ended up working an extra day so that didn't help my already exhausted body.

I’d mentioned in a previous post about a guy that I was being introduced to by some friends. Well so far It hasn't really went anywhere. For one thing he’s like 5 years younger than me, which was a big deal for me. Initially I was under the impression that we were just going to get to know each other, possibly be friends if we had something in common, etc, but it seems he got cold feet when I asked him to call me instead of texting me back and forth. I’m sort of old fashioned, and I can’t really carry on a decent conversation via text message so I figured we could talk on the phone…no big deal. Welp apparently he’s afraid to talk to me or something…idk.  Maybe he thinks I’m a cougar, but the thing is I’m not trying to date him, nor am I trying to marry him. I don’t fucking know him so…yeah I think he got the wrong idea or maybe my coworker gave him the wrong idea? I’m not sure. Either way he texted me this week telling me good morning which just generally annoyed the hell out of me because he’d avoided me all week after I texted him asking him about talking on the phone then all of a sudden he's all "Good Morning^^" ugh..... Needless to say I don’t really care. I didn’t expect anything out of it really.  It seems the young people these days a really are slaves to their technology so much that they can’t hold a conversation with an actual person…smh.  

As far as music goes I've been listening to a lot of metal, and industrial music lately. I think going to that concert revived me already existing love for metal. I've also been playing bass more which is good. I bought a new bass amp! It was long overdue since my old one finally died on me. The new one is great, and it doesn't have an annoying buzz like my old one did. It’s got a really nice sound overall, and I’m very pleased with it. Anyway I’m having a nostalgia trip right now because a band I used to dig when I was in high-school (who is still active might I add), have decided to plant some sort of surprise on their fans and took a bunch of photos with all of the old band members. That band is Kittie, and I have no idea what they're planning but if it involves the old members, and possible reunion I’m so up for it! I used to love the hell out of this band in high-school because back then it was so rare to see an all girl metal band. So yay! I’m excited if they’re planning some sort of reunion type thing.

( You took something from me... )

Continuing with music news there are a few upcoming albums I’m looking forward to coming up. A few of the main one’s are.

La Dispute – The Rooms Of The House (Post-Hardcore, Spoken Word)

Lacuna Coil – Broken Crown Halo (Gothic Metal, Alternative Metal)

Delain – The Human Contradiction (Gothic Metal, Symphonic Metal)

I've already pre-ordered "Broken Crown Halo", but I still need to order Delain, and La Dispute's album. Anyways that's all for now folks.  I'm off to listen to old Kittie albums, and take a trip back down nostalgic lane.  :)
