A Thousand Things To Say...

     This is one of those rare times I can't communicate my thoughts to you through words.  On occasions such as this, music is the only thing that translates.  Not really the lyrics, but the music itself; the piano, the guitar, the drums, the tone, and the voice used to sing the words are what translate, not the lyrics.  In some cases, the lyrics are perfect, but still, it is the music around the words that leads to the appeal of a song, much like the song above.  The music is how I'm feeling at the moment.  Just listen.

The song is Belong by Cary Brothers.

"And If You Close Your Eyes...

     . . . does it almost feel like nothing's changed at all?"

     I know, I usually start off with the word "So," but this song has been stuck in my head all day.  Especially that line . . . 'cause it's about the only line I really know.  And those stupid advertisements that you have to sit through in order to watch some YouTube videos plays it a lot, advertising Bastille and their new album Haunt, featuring the song "Pompeii", which is the song that I am singing to you above.  Here is a video, so you, too, can have it stuck in your head:

     So, (there it is!) I've been watching a lot of YouTube videos these past couple of days.  Hence the one-liner-song obsession.  Anyways, most of the videos I've watched are the DIY (Do It Yourself) kind that involve bracelets, earrings, and other accessories.  However, I wandered into the DIY clothing area, and, more specifically, ripped and braided tees.  So, I got inspired.  Here's one that I finished at 3am yesterday morning (Monday):

     I braided the back, and also tightened the sleeves.  It was just a normal T-shirt, but it's a little more fitted, now.  It advertises Monster energy drinks on the front:

     Although, it sorta looks like it says "Mom" to me . . .

     I have another one that I'm doing, but it's not quite finished yet; I'm currently hemming the neckline.  But it's really cute.  And blue; it's blue.

     I had to work today; it went great.  Even though we had over 90 people to feed.  I work at a camp as a cook, and anytime you have that many people, it usually sucks to feed them all supper, wash all the dishes (plates, cups, silverware, plus everything you cooked with), clean the sinks, mop the floors, keep your brain from blowing up, and still get done by 7:30.  But the people I work with are fantabulous, so everything ran smoothly.  I was even entertained by the frozen peas I was cooking:

     Yeah, that's right: I made a wreath of frozen peas . . . I love my job.  It's even better, because this week, my gang is reuniting from last year!  (Resource Team, don't know if you all remember me telling you about them, but one is back on Resource Team, again, one is a camp counselor for the week, and one just happens to be coming to town this week!  Although, when the last one I mentioned texted me this morning, and asked if I was working this Thursday night, I could not, for the life of me, remember who "Nicole" was.  It took me ten minutes to realize which Nicole I was talking to.  See?  I am not fully-functioning in the morning . . . 

     Tanner is finally home!!!  He finally finished his three-week math class, and is back home!!  Okay, I just had to tell you all that.  My life is complete, now.

     I think that's all I've got for you, today.  Wow.  This is a rather cheery post . . . I should dampen it down with some music from an agonized and tortured soul:

That's better.
