So did y’all know that working nights absolutely sucks? Because it does. I honestly thought I wouldn’t mind it – I mean, no management, slower pace, patients are sleeping, etc. – but now that I’ve been on the graveyard shift for a little over two months, I’m about to lose what little sanity I have. So naturally, what I do is start a rewatch of Buffy the Vampire Slayer as a coping mechanism, and I honestly forgot how great the music was on this show.

And that experience is your gain! Enjoy, my friends!

How. How is it already May.

I am legitimately dumbstruck as to how fast this year is moving. Like it seems both like yesterday and also a year ago that I broke up with Frat Boy Douche (that was back in January), and I feel like I just went to nights less than a week ago, and it’s been like more than a month. And Bonnaroo is what, forty-five days away??

So what I’m saying is, I want things to slow down. So I’m going for a more chill vibe this week, something that may manifest a bit of a pace change.

Enjoy!

Just yesterday, I got back from a lovely mini-vacation in Savannah, GA and seriously just want to go back. I just fit into that town so well that I keep wondering if I shouldn’t just bite the bullet and move down there. There’s only a few things keeping me in Nashville at the moment, so maybe on down the road? Who knows.

On Saturday, my last day in the area, the sister and I decided to head onto Jekyll Island, about an hour-ish drive south from Savannah, and it was yet another reason that I wish I lived down there: the beach is insanely close. There’s something magical about the southern Atlantic coast that just calls to me. Honestly, just beaches in general are pretty high on my favorite things list.

This week’s playlist is definitely inspired by my beachy experience, so grab yourself some rum and sit out on your back porch for some good tunes!

God, that makes me sound so damn old. Oh well.

Yayyyyyy, it’s back!! I’ve actually really missed this feature because it made me get out of my comfort zone and listen to music I otherwise would have skipped. Granted, a lot of today’s playlist has a lot of 90s music on here because I’m feeling nostalgic, but hey, at least I’m upfront about that.

Now, I’m switching to Mondays because I figure this is a good way to start the week off right. I’ve also started creating YouTube playlists again, just in case you don’t want to have to click on every single song on here. I’ll be updating it with each subsequent week (I’m doing seasons as opposed to months because that got a little intense), so feel free to click on over there if you don’t want to wait for a new “on rotation.”

Alrighty, onto the music!

Enjoy!!

Alrighty, I’m back with another playlist of whatever YouTube chooses from my thousands of liked videos. I’m surprised that I’ve only run into a few repeats over the past several attempts of doing this, and I can only hope that it stays that way. Spotify was always really bad about this when I’d place it on shuffle; I’d just get a run of the same few artists, but it got worse as my list got longer somehow. You’d think it’d be more shuffle-friendly at that point, but oh well.

Anyway … enjoy!

You know, as I get into my thousands of YouTube likes, I have realized what a weird, eclectic music taste I have, and I am okay with that. I mean, I’m pretty sure everybody is this way? So I’m not tooting my own horn here, but I definitely do not fit a single algorithm. Maybe that’s why YouTube has such a hard time recommending things for me.

Oh, well. I’ll find stuff on my own, I guess.

And I’m back on my shit, y’all. New playlist, same YouTube likes.

September has always been one of those months that I associate with change, probably because it was the beginning of a new school year (which is such a weird concept to me now that I’m older), and I’ve found myself being a lot more open to those changes. I mean, I’ve just graduated from nursing school, and I’ll be taking my NCLEX fairly soon, which means – so long as I pass – I’ll be officially changing job descriptions from student to nurse, and I’ve reached a point in my life that I am taking a lot more stock in manifesting the life that I want by actually doing things to accomplish it instead of just putting that energy out there.

This has nothing to do with today’s playlist, but whatever.
