Too True Tuesday
I know I promised to change the world again today, but quite frankly I needed a mental health day. Getting myself all worked up with what is wrong with the world. So Essie’s challenge was a welcomed break.
I must now confess my music listening sins.
I listen to Christmas music all year long. Drives Tech Support absolutely crazy. I cannot publicly display my Christmas-ness until after Thanksgiving. Marital bliss and submitting and what not. Actually, I don’t think he minds that much, I just find that I’m happier when he isn’t giving me crap about how weird I am.
Well, he married me.
I also like really old country music. Like stuff that came out on 8-track originally. My sister and I used to get all the 8-track hand me downs from my dad and would listen to that in our shared room. Fun times.
Having just offended those who grew up when 8-tracks were the new hip thing….
I myself am getting old. I have come to prefer silence. Having three children who are five, you wouldn’t think silence would be something I cherished, but yeah, it is.
I have nothing on my ipod that I would die if someone found out. And thanks to years and years of Tech Support working on my self esteem, I will sing each and every one of them loudly and badly. (That can’t be proper English) Blame him, I wouldn’t even sing Happy Birthday to my kids 13 years ago. True story.
Now, I’m singing “Bitch” in the Christian book store. Oops. Deal with it, I am that song.

Oh yikes, Christmas music anytime other than the 25th of Dec is a pet peeve of mine. Hate it. Just tolerate it one day a year actually. Glad it makes you happy though!

I love Christmas songs for about a week…then, when they get repetative, I wonder why no one writes NEW Christmas tunes. Oh, there’s a few here and there, but why can’t someone “modernize” it. Sigh.

You should totally check out Relient K Let It Snow, Baby Let it Reindeer. The 12 days of Christmas fix they did is hilarious. “What’s a partridge? What’s a pear tree? I don’t know so please don’t ask me, but I can bet those are terrible gifts to get.” lol
