Oh Hot Damn, This is My Jam

by MouthyGirl

Yesterday was a horrible day. Absolutely horrible. From beginning to end it SUCKED. The only small bright spot was my trip to Fry’s to buy a laptop – long overdue. But I couldn’t get my internet connection to see my new laptop last night so that all ended in frustration and cussing that I won’t share here.

So I thought I would share with you the music that cheers me up when I’m in a shitty mood. There’s not a lot to them, they’re mostly thoughtless music. Music affects me profoundly and sometimes all it takes is one song to turn my mood around.

“Metal therapy” as I call it, seems to be the best recipe so far for a bad day, I can get all my frustration out screaming with my favorite metal bands :D

Today, it was very hard for me to leave the house. The thought crossed my mind that if today ends up being even remotely like yesterday, someone is going to pay. Then I realized that’s how psycho’s start down their terrible paths, so I turned on VH1 and tried to cheer up and put on a happy face so to speak.

So what follows is my list of music that puts me in a better mood so that I can face other people and not take their heads off. I’ve discovered, I think, that I am very passive aggressive, and in that, more passive that aggressive. LOL

Swagga Like Us – T.I.
Miss Independent – Neyo
Duck & Run – 3 Doors Down
Joker – Steve Miller Band
Walk This Way – the Run DMC version
Leave Me Alone – Cross Canadian Ragweed
Hell Yeah – Montgomery Gentry
In the Ayer – Flo Rida
One – Metallica
For Whom the Bell Tolls – Metallica
Back in Black – AC/DC
Grown Woman – Mary J. Blige

Those are just a few, if I think of more I’ll add them.

What are your best songs to cheer you up?

Social Media: How Do You Use It?

by MouthyGirl

A lot of us have a Myspace page, or a Facebook page, LinkedIn or are on Twitter, Plurk, MommyTalk.com or another social media website where we interact and connect with others, either for business purposes, social purposes or to catch up with old friends.

When I first signed upon MySpace it was the first time I’d been involved in social media, I was also learning alot about HTML markup at the time so MySpace filled two spots, musical interest, and the ability to practice what I knew of HTML.

I enjoyed it at first a lot, read a lot of bloggers that blog only on MySpace – and there are a lot there that are stellar bloggers, limited by the MySpace audience. One in particular that I enjoyed immensely still blogs on MySpace and by all accounts is very successful there, and has even written a book since.

I started blogging for the first time on MySpace. It was sheltered and useful in that I was able to learn my style, how I like to write and address people and I especially liked that I could control who saw the blog.

I’m interested in how you use social media, I have a MySpace page, LinkedIn, Twitter, MyBlogLog (which I hardly log onto anymore) and am open to others that might forward my cause as a blogger.

What are your thoughts on social media? A waste of time, or valuable resource?
