My digital life neatly packaged for your convenience. Get to know me.
brinah321- It is challenging, but I think it’s just because it’s new. New systems, new people, etc. I’m getting better at it, and it’s only been a few days. I like it so far. There are a ton of perks.
thissoundsastraightjacket- You went to bed. Yeah, that’s right, I’m calling you out! I should spam your twitter interactions.
I make horrible jokes. I don’t mean them to be taken seriously. I just like joking around. So this patient leaves, and the nurse tells me, “She came in because she was seeing things.” My response? “What, dead people?” Thank you and goodnight. I hope the Heat pull out a win.
I apologize for her mass amount of blogging. All of it is due to my hour-long shower. It won’t happen again. Today.
Somewhat sincerely,
Tyler
I meant to post this after my first day of work, but I went to bed. At 6:30 pm. Yeah. This was my face on my first day of work.
The first day of work went well. I didn’t get a lot of sleep Saturday or Sunday nights so this resulted in me crashing within an hour of getting home last night. I went to bed around 6:45 pm and woke up at 2 am. So i guess I’ll get ready to start my day? This all seems very odd right now. I have a good four hours to enjoy before I go to work. Hopefully I go to bed at a normal time tonight. I wish Spotify would update the new albums. I’d like to listen to them since I’m awake. It’s a no go until like 10 am though. Here are my plays from last week. I’m going to go shower.
1. Justin Timberlake- 73 plays
2. A$AP Rocky- 54 plays
3. Of Monsters and Men- 39 plays
4. Leagues- 38 plays
4. The Weeknd- 38 plays
Such an amazing song. The lyrics are beautiful.
Dear little girl, (there’s) so much hurt
For such a young age.
Trapped inside a pretty little lie,
Your body’s betrayed.
Don’t fix your eyes on a fix you’ll rely on.
Fixed her eyes on a fix she relies upon.
Stand unafraid,
All the good souls, stand unafraid.
When the light starts to burn, and the pain returns,
I just wish that I could heal the hurt you feel tonight.
There’s life in your veins.
These needles are chains to hold you down
How can you expect to win this war?
You’re too afraid to fight
Are you too afraid to fight?
Dear little one, that was so much pain.
Time you can’t replace.
Trapped inside, too afraid to cry, and now
Hands and bruises cover face.
Don’t fix your eyes on a fix you’ll rely on.
Fixed her eyes on a fix.
When the light starts to burn, and the pain returns,
I just wish that I could heal the hurt you feel tonight.
There’s life in your veins.
These needles are chains to hold you down.
How can you expect to win this war
If you’re too afraid to fight?
Stand unafraid,
All the good souls. (All the good souls)
Stand unafraid,
All of the good souls,
Stand unafraid.
When the light starts to burn, and the pain returns,
I just wish that I could heal the hurt you feel tonight.
There’s life in your veins.
These needles are chains to hold you down.
How can you expect to win this war…
When the light starts to burn, and the pain returns,

So the twitter world doesn’t get upset at me for posting so much I’m gonna blog right quick. I’m having a wonderful afternoon. I’m checking out a bunch of new music while watching the NCAA tourney. Music and sports, two of my loves being combined. I’m having a great lunch with grilled and well-seasoned free range chicken paired with a leftover Sam Adam Summer Ale. The lemon in the beer compliments the chicken quite well. I need to use this when cooking chicken sometime. Maybe with a lemon pepper recipe. I always say if I wasn’t seeking a career in music I’d be a chef. I love trying new things and cooking great food for other people. I’ll be listening to some vinyl later too. Justin Timberlake and Of Monsters and Men have found their way in my collection. For new music, check out Leagues and Now, Now. Awesome bands you should know. Two great days in a row. Dare I try for a third?
I’m going to be quick with this post. I got the job I interviewed for last Friday. It’s a perfect situation. I’m really glad it worked out. The next two days I will celebrate by watching an unbelievable amount of college basketball. I haven’t done this in two years because of work. I’m taking full advantage since I have no idea if I’ll be able to do it next year. Hopefully my bracket doesn’t get busted. I have a feeling this year is going to be crazy. Cheers!
I’m really tired tonight. I’m not sure why. I got a decent amount of sleep last night. I guess it’s a good thing though. I have a second interview at the place I interviewed at on Friday. This time I meet the doctor. I had a good feeling about it, and it looks like I may get hired tomorrow. My fingers are crossed. I’m gonna grab a bite to eat and watch The Walking Dead or PTI. Here’s what I listened to last week. It’s no surprise JT grabbed the top spot. What a great album. I encourage you to pick it up at midnight tonight. I’m buying the vinyl of it.
1. Justin Timberlake- 106 plays
2. Local Natives- 73 plays
3. Manchester Orchestra- 40 plays
4. The xx- 38 plays
5. Foals- 35 plays
Two things in this post:
First, Justin Timberlake fans have a new reason to be happy. Why? Not just because his new album coming out this Tuesday (It’s wonderful. Go buy it.). He is releasing ANOTHER album in November. It’s going to be Part 2 of The 20/20 Experience. Ten songs now, and ten songs later, get it? 20? I am stoked about this news. It’s like he never left the game for seven years. Did anyone watch Fallon this week? He was on point all week. Last night was amazing! It was one of the best late night tv episodes I’ve ever seen. The chemistry the two had during the interview was great; it was hilarious throughout. The Histroy of Rap Part 4 was cool too. Then JT came out blew up the stage with a mashup of old hits.
For the second part of this post, brinah321 asked me about tailoring on a previous post of mine. Yes 100%. Tailoring is what makes a $300 suit look like a $1000 one. Even if you buy the correct size at the store, it’s still a little off from fitting you perfectly. I only get my suits, blazers, and dress pants tailored. It’s reasonable and worth every penny. I like a European fit on that stuff, and I hate to fight the tailor for him to do it like I wanted. The best part was when he asked if I bought my suit in the boys section. Hey, I’m not trying to swim in it!
I prefer vinyl instead of candy for Easter. Local Natives and Manchester Orchestra. #vinyl #lp #record #records #localnatives #manchesterorchestra #hummingbird #music #band #bands #likeavirginlosingachild #afterglow
I can’t reblog the question, but I liked the response because I can relate. Someone asked John Mayer this on his tumblr how long it takes to write a song. Mayer’s response:
Every song is different. ‘Stop This Train’ was about a week of writing verses, and ‘Submarine Test’ happened in three obsessive days with a white board in front of the mic. What you hear was each line as I wrote it. ‘Belief’ and ‘Assassin’ both took years, literally. ‘Gravity’ was done in two days. ‘Queen of California’ was a fight for the third verse for weeks with my iPhone note pad. Oh, and in ‘Edge of Desire’ “steady my breathing/silently screaming/”I have to have you now” held the song up for weeks. Songwriting is like math homework, mostly.
This is quite true. Sometimes my writing comes in pieces. Other times, I can write a whole song in a half hour to an hour. It depends on the creative state of my mind and how long it takes to get it to sound right to me. Whenever I get an idea I write it down. One line, two lines, verses, a chorus, it doesn’t matter. I can always use it later. I’ve even pulled my car over to write down an idea. I rarely have pen and paper on me when I’m out so I use the notepad feature on my iPhone. It’s unbelievably handy.
So I decided to work on some comedy writing instead. I remembered a situation from a few years ago. I had been dating this girl for about six months, and this guy tried hooking back up with her while she was dating me. What a dick move! Who does that?
If you wanna know how big of a tool someone is see if they have a picture of them drinking Bud Light while doing bro things. That’s a pretty good indication.
