Music Week: Monday Misanthropy

So the idea is to give a list of songs that fit some theme or other.  With videos.  

Now I figure, adding too many videos is pointless. Most people aren't gonna take the time to watch every one, or maybe even any. Especially since I doubt I have very many readers, ha ha!  So I'm only including a few videos, if the song is relatively obscure, or particularly interesting, or fun.  

Monday Misanthropy

It's Monday. I don't know many people who fucking love this day.  So here's a short list of songs that feed the rage -- and sometimes help diffuse it.

After the Flesh (My Life With the Thrill Kill Cult) 

Snakedriver (Jesus & Mary Chain)

In the End (Linkin Park)

Let Me Down (Dubious Mike)

Slip Slide Melting (For Love Not Lisa)

Friend is a Four-Letter Word (Cake)

Beautiful People (Marilyn Manson)

Better Off Alone (Alice Deejay)

A note about that video: The dude in it has got to be the biggest idiot I've ever seen. But the girl's kinda cute...

Bad Habit (Offspring)

Extreme Ways (Moby)

Numb (Linkin Park)

Random Stuff

So today was the end of my 30-day probation period at the new job. 

And the owner said I'm doing great and needn't worry.  

I'd actually forgotten all about that shit. 

But now that he's reminded me, I have to remember to mention that raise I was told about when I agreed to work for them...

In other news, just in case random others than my followers are tuning in: Next week is music week, as proposed by Typhoid Ashley (http://typhoidashley.blogspot.com/). She got the idea, apparently, from a MySpace thread I started way back when. The idea is to make a list of music for each day. I guess she's got themes planned out for each day.

So I'll be doing the same, at her behest (can't deny that girl anything, sadly [lol]), although I won't be using the same themes.  Because, like, I didn't go to high school. And I'm not a girl. But most importantly, because I'm deaf and I don't know songs like you normies do.

Which reminds me, the aforementioned owner has set me up with an audiologist who can maybe give me some really good deals on a new hearing aid. Which is good because I kinda need one. I do have an audiologist already that I know and trust, but the bottom line has to be, well, the bottom line.  We'll see what happens on that. 

Not much else to report. I just watched the first Entourage (season 1) DVD and I liked it a lot more than I thought I would.  Granted, regular appearances by Leighton Meester or whatever her fucking name is, along with plenty of other hotties and familiar locales, all those helped.  But it made me really crave a beer (or six) and some socialising. I'll have to see what I can do about that, this weekend. Like tomorrow...!
