Disturbed Covers Genesis

Did you know this? I didn't until this week. Good old "Land of Confusion" brought to the levels of odd vocal growlings that Disturbed is known for. I wonder if they'll still use puppets in their video for it? (If you don't know what I'm talking about, search "Land of Confusion" on YouTube).

With the world in a tizzy over that one, I've been in family overload from the holidays. I love them dearly, but after a while I just wanted to go to sleep. I've also been working this week in a fairly empty office and getting out early left and right. I wore jeans all week and was sick as a dog. See? I needed that sleep that I kept demanding. Stupid family.

I got a lot of nice stuff though and enjoyed seeing people open things I got them that they actually needed and appreciate them. I also went to hell on earth (south shore plaza) and bought Hilary Duff's With Love fragrance. I even got it boy approved before making such a purchase. In other words...Smell me.

I've come to the realization that sometimes it is easier to break up a friendship than start one. There are times when you can fade away and slowly come to a mutual understanding that a relationship (at any level) is over. Other times it's like pulling teeth. The worst is when it was quick and started with a bang. Those are generally the worst to begin with and the most awful endings. It's really the "crash and burn" theory (or fireworks). The better things are from the beginning, sometimes the more horrid the ending. Sometimes it's great and all, but how do you end something that never really had much time to become something? How do you do this when this person/these people are more or less unavoidable? A constantly terrible situation.

Well, if there's anything I hate more than Christmas, it's New Year's. I bought a really pretty dress that will probably end up hanging in my closet until next year or whenever I have a random chance to wear such a snazzy thing. I didn't buy the dress for New Year's, I bought it because it was only $20 and was originally $70, but still. I never do anything for this holiday and I have a feeling this year will be no different. It's usually just an excuse for a good cry. I will probably wake up at 6am though to wish my sister a "Happy New Year" in New Zealand. She gets to 2007 before me. Cheater.

I'm going back to listening to my friend WFNX (you can listen live from wherever and I suggest you do) and watching FX's mini marathon of "It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia" (really one of the best shows ever. buy them on iTunes).

Happy New Year and Eat Your Veggies.
