okay, seriously. i gotta go to bed. I was up until 4:00 last night. Went to The Killers show here. They were okay. Flavor of the month but like six months ago. So, not that great. Anyway, then I came back home and drank some gin and played some cards. Then went out to a bar and stayed there 'til it closed. Then came home at 3:00 and watched Live at Red Rocks until 4:00. Yep, woke up pretty, pretty, pretty hung over. But it was all worth it!

Yeah, as you can see, I'm still up! Can't seem to make myself go to bed! When you're on here, I just chase you around waiting to pee my pants laughing!

Me, too, the difference is, last night I didn't do anything fun, I went to class. And tonight I just got back from class, and won't be doing anything fun again. Except recording myself singing. Laugh worthy, but not as good as going out. A lot cheaper, though.

I'd like to add -
Bette Davis Eyes
It's not a happy song, in and of itself, but it makes me very, very happy. I don't know why I love this song, and it's 5 notes, so much, but I sure do. I just think it's so beautiful. Sure, it pays homage to my favorite actress, but I think I'd love it anyway. Those five notes are just sublime. doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo. Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo.
Not to mention Kim Carnes's vocal quality. yummy sexy.

One of my recent favorites is What Happens Tommorrow by Duran Duran. In fact, that whole CD is pretty happy.

I love anthemic songs!

Now don't laugh but I really love "Don't Stop Believing" by Journey. I know it's cheesy, please forgive, but for some reason that song just lifts me up. And now every time I hear it I think about the skating rink scene in the movie Monster. Great movie, btw.

These are great picks. "Maybe I'm Amazed" has a tinge of sadness though, don't you think? I think the great love songs always do.

Oh my god. I love Monster

but I really dig Be My Wife by David Bowie as a happy song, even tohugh the lyrics are sort-of sad
