What you can expect
This journal is primarily about my life, music & the occasional fandom diversion (mostly: Critical Role & Dragon Age). I do not have any particular friending policy; I welcome new friends and will usually add back. If you know me from elsewhere, feel free to send me a message. Thanks for stopping by. <3

Secondary Fanworks
You may podfic, MST3K, or create secondary fanwork of any fanwork I have posted. Please include a link to my work and let me know where you've posted yours. Please do not archive elsewhere.

WHERE HAS ALL MY TIME GONE? I haven't even been working. This is just the last few days of vacation but I feel like I've no time at all now. I needed all this time off for sure, but since we got back from Florida there's just a bunch to get done before I start the new job. Like, I needed badly to clean out my closet and get all my 'work' clothes front and center again and push all the comfy cozy clothes back. UGH. I'm going to miss the roll out of bed into fresh comfy clothes to go to work. I will not miss the job though. News on that front for a different post.

We're here to talk about MUSIC!

Let's start with our fae king. There's a tiktok here of Hozier singing his new song with Meduza that's coming out this coming Friday. If this little clip is anything to go by, it's gonna be really great.

Oh! And this wonderful take from Nicotine Dolls on "Wouldn't It Be Nice" from the Beach Boys here. The rasp in his voice man, it just does something.

I also found this article here that created a list of songs that gave people chills to listen to based on some research done on the phenomenon. The list is on Spotify here. I love this idea and will be diving headfirst into this playlist and then maybe trying to use some of the songs to recreate my own list.

Lastly for this little section, whatever it is, is a pre-emptive heads up for anyone who enjoyed Joey Batey on The Witcher and might like his music elsewhere as The Amazing Devil. They have a new album coming out this coming week and you can find it here at Bandcamp.

Okay, onto videos. Every couple of days I seem to lose my whole playlist from YT which is very annoying because there's a lot of good stuff on it. But, I can scroll through my history, so here's what I was enjoying before I lost the whole list.

First, if you enjoy the band Oh Wonder, they're back with new music and they have this film "22 Break" on YT right now that is sort of a storyline video of the album they have out now of the same title.

I cannot NOT include this. Halocene collaborated with Lauren Babic & Violet Orlandi (my favorite YT metal women) to cover "I'm Not Okay" by My Chemical Romance. It's verryyyyy good.
And if you like that, these three also have a video for "Welcome to the Black Parade" on Halocene's channel here
Lastly for this video portion is the NPR Tiny Desk (Home) Concert for Yasmin Williams. I had not heard of her before, but her songs are so beautiful. She plays the fretboard and a kind of finger-style guitar playing. It's just a unique song and I found myself a little mesmerized by it.


Honorable Mentions:

I hope everyone had a good weekend. I start my new job tomorrow so I'm hella anxious and trying to let that go so I can sleep well tonight. Wish me luck!

As always, I'd love to read about what you've been listening to lately!
