DAY THIRTEEN: Sadly Lightning-free.
I decided I was going clean the apartment today, since I'm not on crutches yet, and 'cause the roommate who is SUPPOSED to be cleaning the bathroom is doing a really awful job of it (by which I mean, SHE'S NOT CLEANING IT AT ALL). And it was seriously, seriously gross. Mom came over to help, bless her. I also managed to tidy my room a bit in preparation for impending crutches. NEED ROOM FOR NAVIGATION.
Also, hahaha, the roommate who hasn't been cleaning the bathroom (YOU HAVE ONE CHORE, FFS) stopped by while Mom and I were at it, and when she realised we were both working on it, she kind of made an "...oh" face and then scarpered back out. I HOPE YOU ARE ASHAMED. Because, seriously, ew.
Moving on from that, though. The daily prompt is BUT WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ABOUT MUSIC?
But this is not a music post because that is later, thoughtfully placed after Christmas, so I don't just hammer you all with Trans-Siberian Orchestra and Mannheim Steamroller or something (I have "real" Christmas music, too, I swear). But I will drop this:
BASICALLY MUSIC IS THE BEST? I'm one of those folk who prefer 24/7 background noise. I firmly believe life should have a soundtrack. My radio only gets turned off when there is a power outage and I only just recently taught myself how to fall asleep quickly while staying in hotel rooms or other places where there might be other people who do not want to hear NOISE FOREVER.
Music can make me happy! Music can also make me cry (... it's usually instrumental pieces that you wouldn't normally think would provoke such a reaction, but there it is. The track "Optimus" from the 2007 movie score is one of those pieces for some reason? I always get all choked up at some point during it.) (Say what you will about how terrible the live action movies are - I will agree with a lot of it - but the scores for all four of them so far have been fantastic.)
I can usually find something I like in any genre, though there are some I usually don't like much from. Rap and I generally don't agree with each other, for example.
I used to sing a lot, but at some point I figured out that it probably wasn't just the kids in middle/high school being jerks who didn't want to be near the loser kid and I'm probably just not very good at it, so I don't so much anymore. Only when I'm confident there's no one around to hear. I don't much trust my humming, either, though I do still whistle a lot.
...idk what else to put in this entry k bye
