In an Effort to Cheer Myself Up

[cinaed]

I give you all music. ...Given most of the songs aren't exactly happy, but they're, uh, pretty? *slinks away*

Breathless - Better Than Ezra
Here you are now
Fresh from your war
Back from the edge of time
And all that you were,
Stripped to the bone

We Are Nowhere And It's Now - Bright Eyes
Why are you scared to dream of God
When it's salvation that you want?
You see stars that clear have been dead for years
But the idea just lives on

Somebody That I Used to Know - Elliott Smith
I know you don't think you did me wrong
And I can't stay this mad for long
Keeping a hold on what you just let go
You're just somebody that I used to know

I Am Stretched On Your Grave - Kate Rusby
I still will be your shelter
Through rain and through storm
And with you in your cold grave
I cannot sleep warm

Sell All My Things - Rosie Thomas
So sell all my things, I'm not coming home...
There's nothing there to keep me there...
Just heartache and panic and worries and things that'll bring me down
My head feels much clearer being here

The Edge of Water - Jars of Clay
Have you ever been haunted
The way I've been by you?
And have you ever felt
The measure of the days
That I've spent waiting
Pining for you?

Godless (Massive Edit Attack) - The Dandy Warhols
Hey I said you're godless and it seems like you're a soulless friend
As thoughtless as you were back then, I swear that you are godless
Hey I guess you're lonely when I gave you all it took so then,
Stranger then it's ever been.
I guess it's what you wanted.

I Know, You Know - The Friendly Indians
In between the lines there's a line of obscurity
I'm not inclined to resign to maturity
If it's all right, then you're all wrong
But why bounce around to the same damn song?

so.... you a Psych fan then?

[cinaed.livejournal.com]

Oh yes. *grins* Definitely.

[cinaed.livejournal.com]

Huh...intriguing. I got your comment asking about the pairings in my email, but it's not showing up on LJ. *scratches head*

Anyways, my preference is Shawn/Lassiter, but really, I'm laid-back, I'll read Shawn/Gus. Haven't seen any Juliet/Shawn to read, but I'd probably read one if I saw it. *grins*

[lilyayl.livejournal.com]

*headslap* Yeah, I deleted the comment so I could add Gus/Juliet, but then got distracted and never went back. And, for the record, Shawn/Gus here, though I can enjoy a nicely written Shawn/Lassiter.

[cinaed.livejournal.com]

*laughs* Oh, makes more sense now.

Oooh, Gus/Juliet? Never thought about it, but that'd be cute, actually. And Shawn/Gus are my "Old Married Couple" pairing of that show. *grins* They're obviously married. Have you read any of lucia_tanaka's Shawn/Lassiter? She writes them really well.

[lilyayl.livejournal.com]

I don't think I have. I'll check her out later. Merci.

[lilyayl.livejournal.com]

Oh, I d/l'd 'I Know, You Know.' Forgot to mention that.

[cinaed.livejournal.com]

Hope you enjoy it! (Wait, it's 'I Know, You Know.' Of course you will.) *grins*

[lilyayl.livejournal.com]

I enjoy greatly.

Hey, you wouldn't mind beta'ing a short Rodney fic would you?

[cinaed.livejournal.com]

Sure! (You actually caught me on a good day, finally finishing up my week of not-midterms, just three/four evil tests all at once.) *grins*

[lilyayl.livejournal.com]

All right. I've added you to the beta group and have a filtered post. Any format that works for you is fine. But can't do via AIM b/c I've got classes til 4 and then work til 10 pm, though I'll be on sometime after that.

Shot you an email with the corrections. :) I'll be on after 10 on the name AwriterVA if you have any questions or whatnot.

[cinaed.livejournal.com]

.... *shifty eyes* That probably means you need my email, heh. *headdesk*

Sorry to hear you're feeling down *hugs*. But you gotta love a bit (or a lot!) of Elliott Smith when you're not feeling too happy...hope you feel better soon.

Thanks. :) It was just one of those days that stretches into two or three, y'know? Today's looking better (okay, today I have an art test I haven't really studied for but-- don't really care about that class, so.... *grins*). And that's my only Elliott Smith song (at the moment, heh, I will dl'ing a lot more songs in the future, I'm sure).
