Ok… so, definitely not great at the whole “blogging every day” thing. But since today’s theme, “Where do you work?” is kind of impossible right now for reasons I’ve already covered, I’ve decided to go back and do a couple themes that I missed.
Love me some Meg Myers.
This first one, music, is weirdly emotional for me. I have a history of changing my music tastes based on who I’m friends with or dating at the time–that stopped a couple of years ago, so I’ve had some time to actually develop my own taste. Here it is.
My 10 Favorite Albums Right Now
- Sorry, Meg Myers
- Highlights: “Desire”, “Lemon Eyes”, “Motel”
- Hamilton, Original Broadway Cast
- Highlights: literally all of them, no bad songs, everything is great but you can’t play it on shuffle because you’ll be bopping along to “My Shot” and then “It’s Quiet Uptown” starts and you just. Start crying
- Waitress, Original Broadway Cast
- Highlights: “Opening Up”, “What’s Inside”, “She Used to Be Mine”, “Bad Idea”
- Badlands, Halsey
- Highlights: “Roman Holiday”, “Castle”, “Control”
- Infinity On High, Fall Out Boy (I know, I know, what year is it)
- Highlights: “Bang the Doldrums”, “thnks fr th mmrs”, “Fame < Infamy”
- ACT ONE, Marian Hill
- Highlights: “Down”, “I Want You”, “Bout You”
- American Beauty/American Psycho, Fall Out Boy
- Highlights: “Uma Thurman”, “Jet Pack Blues”, “Immortals”
- Pink Friday… Roman Reloaded, Nicki Minaj
- Highlights: “Beautiful Sinner”, “Marilyn Monroe”, “Va Va Voom”
- Red, Taylor Swift
- Highlights: “State of Grace”, “All Too Well”, “Treacherous”
- The Fool, Ryn Weaver
- Highlights: “OctaHate”, “Sail On”, “Pierre”
These are some choice items from my bucket list: things I want to do before I die. Some of them are a little more immediately achievable than others. For example, I’m probably never going to do #3 until I’m actually on my deathbed.
My Bucket List
- Live in Europe
- Swim with whales
- Tell all of my secrets and live in a state of total honesty
