Writer's Block: Love songs

[Error: unknown template qotd]

Hmm.... Negative is a lot easier for me to think of at the moment. I've never liked How Do I Live, by various people. It bugs me to the nth degree. "How do I live without you? How do I breathe without you?" What. Seriously, it's not healthy one bit to feel like that about anyone, romantic or platonic. You've got to learn to love life and living even if you can't be with one particular person. If you don't feel like you can breathe, honey, you've got a big problem. (You know, I think if that one line wasn't in the song, I might be more indifferent to it or just roll my eyes at it.)

Positive.... Bryan Adams has sung some beautiful love songs, but at the moment I can't think of any because my mind is too full of his platonic songs. **particularly squeeing over that Brothers song.** Though I guess I Will Always Return is probably meant to be romantic? I'm not sure why I always think of his songs when I think of romantic songs (especially when I can barely single any out at the moment). Something about them seemed so deep to me.

Of course, Rockapella has sung some beautiful romantic songs. And when I want the titles, they escape me too. -.- **thinks.** I Walk With You.... I Know Christmas (I know it was dedicated to Scott's son, but it seemed to be about his wife, too).... They have special meaning to me because they're sung by people I've loved since I was four. And the lyrics and melodies are gorgeous.

**yawns.** Okay, talking about romance is boring me. Let's move on to something more interesting.

Well, it's a lovely and cloudy Valentine's Day. The holiday isn't dawning exactly as I'd hoped, and I'm even more disappointed by the realization that I can't be excited for the mail on Monday. Gah, President's Day. Why do these minor, mail-stopping holidays always get in the way of me getting stuff in the mail? Seriously, I always hope that stuff I'm waiting for will come before the holidays and they rarely, if ever, do. I certainly don't have good luck with plushies coming before them. There's been two plushies over Labor Day, for instance. Neither arrived for it. (Of course, they didn't come the day after, either, so even if it had been a mail day, there wouldn't have been any luck. But just ... a mail day is always something to anticipate when you're waiting for something. If you know there won't be any mail to begin with, there goes the mail anticipation for that day.) And this isn't a minor holiday (for me, anyway), and of course mail would be stopped on the day anyway, even if it wasn't a holiday, but another plushie was due around Easter. I hoped he'd come before it, but he didn't. However, he came the very day after. X3

**flicks President's Day.** I wish it was next week. It would be a lot more interesting to me if we actually did something for it. I admit I'd be more interested in New Year's if that was the case then, too.

Even so, I'm excited for Valentine's Day anyway. I have artwork plans for today! And fics and blurbs to sort out! I didn't get that silly thing about Bakura written; instead I posted that Duke/Serenity thing I've had kicking around since November. But I'd still like to write the Bakura thing, just because it would be so amusing---Bakura running home to Yami Bakura in horror after a nightmarish experience at the school dance with all the girls fighting over dancing with him. LOLOLOL. **imagines it turned into quite the brawl.**

And I'm sure I'll enjoy myself tomorrow. I just felt the need to rant.
