     Well hey dw long time no see.  I don't post on this nearly as much as I should, but I think I've gotten out of the habit of blogging as often as I used to.  Happy New Year to you all.  My holidays were actually pretty good.  I got a really cool acoustic guitar from my dad, and a new tablet.  I also bought tons of video games that I really need to get into.  I was supposed to go in to work this morning, but it was below freezing, and the roads were awful this morning so I called in.  I hope everyone has a great 2018 considering how much of a mess 2017 was for a lot of people.

I've decided not to do a new years resolution this year.  I'll just try to be the best me that I can be, and be kind to everyone.  I like how the Black Mirror official twitter put it in this tweet.


Here's some music for your enjoyment.  They played this song after the end of the Black Mirror episode "Hang the DJ", and I it was awesome.  I've been on a Smiths kick lately so enjoy.  Morissey's dancing is so bad in this...lmao.


 

  • Current Mood: good
  • Current Music: the smiths - panic

 So I did a bit of early spring cleaning today, and ended up finding my credit card for my health benefits I'd been looking for!  I was like "OMG!  Now I don't have to pay out of my ass for my medication, or to go to the doctor."  My health insurance has a really pricey deductible so I was still trying to pay that down, and that made my payments for my meds, and doctor visits somewhat expensive.  I was paying out of pocket which I really couldn't afford.  This is great because my job contributes money to this particular card, and gives you incentives if you don't smoke and other things.  This means that I can use that card, and not have to spend my own money on medical expenses.  Needless to say my 2017 is getting off to a decent start.

As for gaming this my collectors edition of FFXII came in the mail recently, and the packaging is pretty snazzy.  It comes with a bonus dvd with special features.  I've never seen packaging like this for PS2 games so I was impressed with the case xD!  

In other news I never did any recaps for my favorite albums of 2016 so I'll do it now.  I'll just list them in no particular order.I think that's about it.  If it's not here then I haven't listened to it yet.  I still have a few albums from last year that I need to listen to fully.  I like to give albums my full attention.  I can say I'm defiantly more of an album person more so than a singles person.  I really dig that Touche Amore record a lot.  It's about the vocalist's mother who died of cancer so you can really fell the singer's pain in a lot of the songs.  These are a mixture of different albums from different genres.  I just put them all there together because it's easier.

Happy New Year folks! I really didn't spend New Years Eve doing much since I worked most of the day yesterday. I'm surprised I'm actually off work today, but happy about it. I'll be on vacation next week. I picked the earliest I could get mainly because It's been a long while since I've taken a vacation from work. My parents were supposed to do something last night, but my mom ended up catching my dad's cold so they stayed in as well. Honestly I don't really like going out on New Years because it just isn't safe. Not that it's ever been, but things have been really crazy lately as far as stuff happening, and I didn't want to risk it.

I've been trying to distract myself from my thoughts, and it's been working. I do feel like I can deal with my issues with depression. My therapist mentioned medication last week, and honestly I'm not too keen on that idea, but I'll weigh it out and see what I want to do.

I've decided to compile a short list of my favorite music from 2015. I'll do another post explaining in detail why I liked these albums.( list of favorite albums of 2015... )

About

I'm a 32 year old woman. I'm an artist, and I'm into the Gothic subculture. Things that I enjoy include but are not limited to 80's Music, Reading, Drawing, Animation, Playing bass guitar, Gothic rock, indie music, horror films, anime, comics, video games, and sci-fi novels. I don't know what I'd do without music, and art. I listen to Siouxsie and the Banshees way more than I should.
