Song of the Day: Shriekback - Nemesis

So... I've been listening to a lot of new stuff and dancy stuff, Robyn, Far East Movement, Richard Vission, but now I've switch over to Siouxsie and the Banshees, The Smiths, and now Shriekback. What can I say, I have an eclectic taste.

Song of the Day - Halloween Edition

For some reason Halloween reminds me of this song. Bauhaus - Bela Lugosi's Dead.

It's been over a year....

So there I was over a year ago at 242 pounds.

And here I am now at 212 pounds.

I still want to get to 200 and go from there. I just recovered from a bad cold so I'm starting anew in my workout. Oddly, I thought my time being stationary would make it a bit hard to come back, but I got back into my run/jog/walk pretty good. . I've also changed the time I work out. It's getting difficult to wake up early and the new schedule is forcing me to get to my commute earlier, so I figured I'll workout at night.

Thanks for all who have supported me and encouraged me.

Song of the Day: Elastica - Stutter

delving back to my high school days... post grunge, brit pop band. Short, sweet, four chords! ah simpler times :-) LOL

Song of the Day: Erasure - A Little Respect

I dedicate this song to @frogboy229, who loves Erasure so much >:-)

Song of the Day: Robyn - The Girl and the Robot

So Robyn is my latest acquisition, if I haven't tweeted or tumbld it enough. I really enoyed the eponymous album and Body Talk Pt 1. I'm getting into Body Talk Pt 2 right now. The Body Talk albums are going to be three album set with the third coming soon. Some may be a bit put-off that some songs on Body talk were on Robyn, but I enjoyed it, "Handle Me" has been on there three times: it's original, dance mix(sorta), and acoustic. All three versions have their subtle changes making each another experience.

So here is the Girl and the Robot from the Robyn Album. This is one of those vids that i thought wasn't made and so never looked into it until now. Sometimes I wonder how US-centric we are, because there are so many talented artists out there that are out of country, but they get very little air play here. Even on MTV on the VMAs Robyn was there performing, but we only got a short blip of her... sigh. Is good music really that hard to find now?

Song of the Day: Diana Ross - I'm Coming Out

I thought this would be appropriate, since today is National Coming Out Day.



Just a bit about myself. I came out when I was 23. I actually didn't know i was gay until about 18 or 19. I truly was a late bloomer. I didn't date in high school, I just wasn't into that. It wasn't until I left home, (left San Francisco - odd I know) that I started to question my sexuality. I went through the whole thing of trying to understand my feeling, the moral implications, how it would affect my family, the worry of never being accepted. I did this as an adult, I can only imagine the pain teenagers go through.

Well here I am 32 years old, and okay at where I am in life :-)
