Everything's electro

But I still like the "indie" music that has become popular these days. Sometimes I feel overwhelmed with how much good music is out there. Sometimes I wish I were made of all ears and had all the time in the world. One day, I'll blog about noteworthy music. I mean I was listening to Sally Shapiro, but the music's not really that noteworthy/bloggable whatever...it's easy-listening, decent. I like the music video, though. It's ridiculously cute.



Speaking of music videos, I hope Violent Still Life makes some dreamy-quality, indie music video with some vague message of autumn love/loss to promote their music, which comes out on iTunes in October. I think it will definitely help boost them into popularity. Not that they are doing it for popularity, just a fun project. That's nice to know, you know? They all have real jobs or what not.

I'm taking Eric's mom to the airport tomorrow morning. It's a coincidence I was recently thinking about how much I care for them and wanted to help them because these past two weeks I have been doing just that. It was stressful, but it's finished - I had to book a flight to Seattle for the poor lady to get some legal matters taken care of. It was a huge ordeal since she wanted to go with Eric but the airline tickets were a scam. Not only that, I had booked a flight for her last week but she had to cancel due to some unexpected circumstances. Did you know if you cancel a flight, it costs $180 in fees to reuse that credit? Then she asked if I was willing to drive her there, and I apologetically had to decline since it would have cost her even more in gas, hotel, and food expenditures. Finally my mom talked her into going on the trip by herself, so she's off tomorrow morning. She's so easily distraught, it breaks my heart. I pray God gives her peace and joy, and for her personal matters to smooth over nicely in Seattle.
