2 Atoms in a Molecule

14 Dec

Noah and the Whale has it down.

I hate nothing more than youtube videos of still frames… but just shut up and listen. The song has that adorable Kimya Dawson vibe to it that makes it sound more like a song you would chant during, “ring around the rosie”. We should really play that game more as adults. Especially when the words are as true as they are in this little diddy.

Yes, diddy.

It makes me feel superb when I get to hear semi-famous attractive band guys bitch about not finding love. Hell, if he sucks at it, at least I know it’s not my lack of music making/general hipster cred that’s bringing me down.

So yeah, Noah and the Whale, I get it.

Now please excuse me while I eat an entire bag of salt and vinegar chips and ignore my chemistry class full of students. The song is chemistry oriented… so there’s that.

The Walls Are Coming Down

14 Dec

Fanfarlo. Sure, they sound like Beirut. Everyone sounds like someone else, so let’s all just shut up about that once and for all. They sound like awesome, deal.

The video is ridiculously appropriate for my current mood.

Houdini has nothing on trying not to kill students in a learning disabled high school science classroom who feel that screaming is an appropriate form of communication.

Granted, maybe they would be easier to deal with had I made better evening choices that didn’t consist of wine and telling a certain person to go to hell all the while blocking and unblocking him from gchat repeatedly. Oh to be a lady these days… I think Liz Lemon said it best when she stated, “Man, there’s just so many different devices for guys to not call you on now.  When I was your age, I could just be like “Oh he probably tried to call me, but my line was busy.” Then you could just watch Falcon Crest and cry yourself to sleep.” Liz Lemon is god.

I could have helped myself by maybe NOT dating a married guy… but yeah, who wants to save themselves from a doomed situation? Not me. Not when the guy has an accent. Not when cuddling an adorable facial hair having male sounds better than cuddling a 4 lb mostly retarded orange kitten.

I lose.

Anyone have a straight jacket I could borrow?
