Diecinueve

When asked which superpower I'd like to have, my default answer is flying. I am not abandoning my dreams of flight, but I think I've figured out the ultimate superpower.

Sleeping.

Not just normal sleeping, sleeping in an ideal situation.
Sleeping whenever you decide, that very instant.
Sleeping wherever you decide, that very spot.
Sleeping comfortably, with no aches and pains when you wake up.
Sleeping for however long you decide, and not a minute longer. There would be no need for alarm clocks--your body would just stop sleeping when you wanted to wake up!

Personally, I think I've struck gold. Now I just have to figure out how to make this a reality.

In the meantime, I'm gonna catch some z's... after I set my alarms.

Dieciocho

Although there is almost always a song stuck in my head, I am exceptionally bad at remembering lyrics. I have to go through and read them/sing along at least four or five times before I remember them, and I usually don't have that kind of time on my hands.

Fortunately, it's summer.

Since The Hush Sound is the band I've been listening to most recently, I decided to at least investigate the lyrics to one of their catchy songs (so I can sing along in the car).

As it turns out, it's kind of a sad song. These are the lyrics to the chorus:

As you cry, I wanna lie
Say I love you so, darlin' even though I don't
There's no easy way, to ease the pain
Roses and the tulips have
Withered away, they had their day
So it's time to say goodnight and goodbye

I found the upbeat and cutesy sound to be ironic matched with these lyrics. (Originally I thought it said, "I don't wanna lie, I love you so" which would make sense with the melody. Nope.)

In any case, it's a great song. You should listen to it.
Here's a link to a low quality YouTube video of them at one of their shows:
