Frank posted a blog tonight on My Chem's website, which I won't quote, suffice to say that you should all go read it right now! It pretty much sums up my feelings the vast majority of the time.
But the reason why I bring it up and why I am posting here at 1:30am in the morning when I should be sleeping, or also doing a lot of other things higher on my priority list than this, is because it immediately inspired me to have some of his words written somewhere in my house to remind me of these things when life gets in the way.
So I made this. It's black paint on glass with gloss paper underneath. I etched all the words in backwards with my swiss army knife, so they would read correctly on the shiny side of the glass.
I posted this on twitter a few days ago, but am quite proud of it, so thought I would post on here. I made this with laundry marker and fabric paint and it's the first shirt/homemade band merch I have ever done, so yay! Can't wait to wear it to My Chem next year.
In other news, 8 days to Danger Days! Countdown is on, go Australia :)
But this did happen and it did make my day. I think she is totally awesome and has managed to emerge as a beautiful, smart, together woman in spite of the legacy and madness she was born into.
I'll stop being a dork now. /fangirl. Btw, we were referencing Pretty Reckless. Which is pretty ironic when you think about it, as Taylor Momsen so obviously wants to be the next Courtney Love...
I know I have been rather slack on here lately with life, work etc getting in the way of spending any quality time (and most importantly I have to say sorry to my very dear hearts that I owe emails too! I know!), but I saw this and had to get off my slack butt and share it...
There are so many shades of awesome in this footage, it is impossible to even...
*breathes* If you would rather not have me spoilt it for you, watch now!
Otherwise, let me list just some of the awesome for you... Gee calling Mikey and Frank his kid brothers, Gee singing Live & Let Die (what!?! I die!), Frank blowing smoke on Gee for attention, Axemurderer Matt!, AfroGabe!!! (yes, GABE!!!!), Gee's sweet baby face, Mikey fixing Gee's hair...god, how do they even function with that much adorableness...
Anyway, just watch it! It's probably some of the earliest footage I have ever seen of them (besides Penn 02), and I love love LOVE the backstage stuff especially.
On a side note, now that I have ventured back again, shall hopefully post up a few more random things. <3 I don't even think I could begin to talk about the new songs yet, suffice to say they make my heart explode.
Gee: You know what I think's gonna happen? I think rock's gonna blow people's private parts. Mikey: What he said. Frank: *shrugs*
Crazy kid with no direction, wasting life on high ideals, vanilla coke and an ongoing love affair with her ipod, Mikey. Lives in a cave in the clouds. Coffee!
