Stupid, Whiny Bitch......
... is pretty much what I am.
I'm sitting here feeling all mopey and wanting attention. I was about to post one of those "give me sympathy" posts cause I'm feeling depressed and shit.
Well, fuck that. Maybe if my retarded ass didn't sit here in this empty fucking office and play Gone Away (by the Offspring), Whiskey Lullaby (Brad Paisely), several Martina McBride songs (Independence Day and Concrete Angel to name two), Luka (Suzanne Vega) and Toy Soldiers (Martika) OVER and OVER again, I might not feel quite so shitty.
And before that, you know what I did.... I found a website that lists "Songs about Nuclear War from the 80's" and started playing all the ones that I found listed on the site that I knew. 'Cause that's a fuckin' pick-me-up.
I mean, come on... I'm a depressing mother fucker to begin with, why the hell do I insist on helping my depression along by actively lookin' for shit that's gonna make me crash. You'd think I'd be smarter than that.
It stands to reason that if you are feeling kinda down, you don't go lookin' for songs to fit your mood... you go lookin' for ones to ALTER it. I should have been listening to fuckin' Men at Work or something. Fun, happy songs that I like. There are plenty of them out there. Hell, I could have played "WishMaster:the Misheard Lyrics" video on YouTube (song by Nightwish). The fuckin' hamster in it always makes me giggle. Or maybe Tub Thumpin' (by Chumbawamba or however the fuck you spell it)... or how about a song by the guy who sang Guitarzan, or some Weird Al even. Several Beastie Boys songs work too.
BUT no.. I had to go find myself some nice ridethehappyrazoronhome tunes to play when I still had over an hour and a half left of my shift.
I do this shit all the time, too. I look back on it, and when I'm angry, I play music that just makes me angrier. If I'm sad, ditto. I do it when I'm happy, too. Are other people this ignorant, or is it just me ?
So, new plan :
When Sad, Play Happy Songs.
When Angry, Play Soothing Songs.
When Happy, Play Happy Songs (not sure it's possible to be too happy).
Not a complicated set of concepts, right? Let's see if I can manage to pull it off.
