At my friend Emily's request, I have decided to update my blog. I don't quite know what to write about, except for random ramblings of thoughts. For the past few days at work I have been listening to Stephenie Meyer's playlists for her "Twilight" series. Talk about choosing songs from bands who are not your typical people. Sure, she has Matchbox 20, U2, and Coldplay on there. But she also has a band called Placebo, and Relient K, among others. She has introduced me to some of my new favorite artists, including Muse, My Chemical Romance, and Blue October. What is great is that she has not picked the typical songs, the songs that are the most popular. She has really been inspired by the songs from these bands, especially Muse and Blue October, that really do go with what the characters are going through. Isn't it wonderful how music can really play a big part in the entertainment that we seek out? She has come out with a completely new concept though. Why not have a soundtrack for a book? I mean, what song is more perfect than "White Wedding" by Billy Idol for Bella and Edward's wedding day during "Breaking Dawn"? Or "Fix You" by Coldplay when Jacob is trying to heal Bella during Edward's absence during "New Moon"?
Anyway, I am really excited about the movie coming out in November, and hope that it has great music in it! Maybe tomorrow I will write about the long, boring football game we are going to tomorrow.

Ha ha ha, thanks for updating it my dear!! My posts are all about random stuff too, so no worries there!
Actually I have heard that CD as well! I love Relient K- one of my favorite bands!
Enjoy the football game as much as you can!
Choose your words carefully about getting football tickets. You might never get them again. You looked like you had fun though. All that camera action I think you and Mike need to get out more.
