365 project:"its much better to face these kinds of things with a sense of poise and rationality"

35.

artist:panic!at the disco
album:a fever you cant sweat out

i guess this answers my question of what i was doing between 2003 and now. i was listening to panic at the disco and alkaline trio.

i don't remember buying this album. i don't remember why i started listening. did i like a song on the radio? did i get tired of reading about it on ap.net? i don't think it was recommended by a friend, though Mandy could have been the reason. i really, truly don't know, and that bothers me.

i do know that i got it right around its release. i remember a specific someone having "when i say shotgun, you say wedding" as their away message (yes, IM. remember, this was 2005) for about a month and actually threatening to leave it up forever until someone said wedding.

i stopped listening to this album because there was a lot of panic backlash (this seems to be a trend with me. i need to stop listening to what other people say to do in regards to music...) and never really picked it back up. however, I've been meaning to listen as i kept hearing i write sins, not tragedies on the radio. I've actually been carrying the CD around with me for a few days because i wanted to listen for this project, but just never got around to it. today, though, i was sitting in my room working on a craft project and listening to stuff on the record player (which forces me to sit still and concentrate) and i decided to throw this record on. i stopped doing what i was doing and ended up messing up my freshly-painted finger nails because i was up dancing around.

i love this album. i wish i was better with the lyrics. i don't know why i never really bothered to nail them down, but i didn't. i am really good at shaking my ass around while its playing, though. this is another album full of really great quotable lyrics. I'm going to have to listen to it with more regularity, though, so i can learn the words, because my favorite part of listening to a song is singing along.
