Music is my Therapy

The day we've been waiting for since August is HERE.... IT'S H A L L O W E E N ! !   🎃👻💀🦇🧛🧟🕸🧹✨ I wish I could say I've been having a most SPOOKTACULAR day but...that wouldn't be the truth. I have been very in tune with my costume this year...I've been an ANXIOUS wreck! This is ME 😭 Remember when I was having my little melt-down the other day about being embarrassed because I didn't have plans for tonight and I was anxious my employer would invite me to go trick-or-treating with her and her children and I felt prideful about that? Well, it's worse. She threw out the idea that, if I didn't have plans, I could go sit ALONE , in her house and pass out candy while/or hold her newborn while they go out.... COULD I BE MORE OF A LOSER OR WHAT!?! I don't want to do either of those things but I didn't know what to say in the moment so I was just kinda like "Oh yeah....maybe....if I don't go to this free haunted house that I know of...

Song(s): Bewitched, Elphaba in the Bathroom & Halloween Music Box Artist(s):  Steve Lawrence, Michael Korte (feat. Ciara Renee) & Nightcore Love I have quite a smorgasbord of wickedly, ghastly tunes for your haunting, ghoulish pleasure this evening! 👻🎃 I can't believe Halloween is TOMORROW!! 🎃👻💀😈🦇🧛🧟🕷🕸🧹✨ Bewitched Featured in the cute, witchy chick-flick I watched last weekend (the 2005 movie,  Bewitched ) I had to share this classic song! It sounds like it could be a Frank Sinatra song and brings a very "vintage" Halloween feel to this years heavier, harsher and overall darker vibe...it gives me cozy, nostalgic "Christmas vibes" for some reason, haha. But it's cozy Halloween 😊 For another "witchy" love song, sung by Frank Sinatra, check out this song Witchcraft here .  Bewitched, bewitched You've got me in your spell Bewitched, bewitched You know your craft so well Before I knew what you were doing I looked in your eyes ...

Song(s): Ain't No Rest for the Wicked & Halloween Artist(s): Cage the Elephant & Siouxsie & The Banshees I've been really weird this week, haha 😜😅 Both of my posts the last two days have been very "rambley" and TMI. I apologize. I'm just annoying these days. I don't know much about either of these songs, just that the titles work for Halloween (one even being called Halloween for goodness sake!). And I've got a bit of headache after a long, but good, day of work so I don't have much to say...the last two days I said plenty so...bye. 👋 *This thought just came to me when reading the title Ain't No Rest for the Wicked... maybe the reason I've been so stressed and anxious and depressed lately is because I'm not prioritizing my spirit. I'm not spending time in meaningful prayer and scripture study each day. I'm doing the things I should to keep myself open to the whisperings and prompting of the Holy Ghost...😰 Deep. M...

Song(s): We Only Come Out At Night & Halloween Artist(s): The Smashing Pumpkins & The Misfits OK, no "therapy session" today, I promise! 😉 The next few days my posts will sound a little something like this "I saw the title of this song and decided to add it to my Halloween playlist because it sounded right" hahaha. I also have a few different songs all entitled "Halloween" that I will be including for the next couple of days so watch for those!  Decided to watch a HORROR film tonight....wait. Let me back up. This has nothing to do with my song choices btw, just fun, seasonal info 😁👽 I recently learned about this funny Halloween event that happened back in 1938 and since I'm too lazy to try to write it out in my own words....here's the Wikipedia summary:  "The War of the Worlds" was a Halloween episode of the radio series The Mercury Theatre on the Air directed and narrated by Orson Welles as an adaptation of H. G. Well...

Song(s): Lone Wolf & Monster Mash Artist(s): Egzod & Wasiu & The Misfits & John Cafiero I can't believe Halloween is this week!! 🎃👻💀🧛🧟 I'm excited but at the same time, can't help but feel a little....sad and anxious and embarrassed. I don't really have plans. Since I really only have my family as my only social companions, and all my siblings are in relationships and will be spending Halloween with their significant others, I'm left on my own this year. 😔 I mean, I have my parents, but it's just not the same without my siblings. I just feel sad and foolish. And embarrassed. For example, I'm really dreading for when my employer, who knows I LOVE Halloween, will inevitably ask me what my plans are and I'll be too embarrassed to tell her the truth...and she will be stopping by my house with her children to trick-or-treat and then probably ask if I want to walk around the neighborhood with them (like she did last year) which I kin...

Song(s): Awooo, Spooky  & Dead Heart Beat Artist: LVCRFT Don't have much time to write....it's been a busy day....but I am excited to be going out for a fun, "spooky" GNO! Here's a few more bops to add to your playlist during the absolute BEST time of year! 🎃👻 Awooo Spooky Dead Heart Beat When you touch me I feel paralyzed, I Just can't get you off of my mind The air between us cold as i-ice But that's the kind of love that I like People under the stairs think we're crazy Pictures on the wall staring right back at us Voices in the night whisper so loudly About you, about me They don't understand our love You make my dead heart beat My dead heart beat Thump, thump, thump, thump, thump You make my dead heart beat My dead heart beat Thump, thump, thump, thump, thump This 808 in my chest Is somehow undressеd And now I'm obsessed with the warmth of your blood You makе my dead heart beat My dead heart beat Thump, thump, thump, thump, thump Dre...

Song: The Ghost In You 👻 Artist: The Psychedelic Furs I celebrated this GORGEOUS fall day with a bike ride and walk through some beautiful fall foliage. 🍁🍂 It was perfect, I didn't want it to end. But it did, and all too soon. 😔 Next week the weather drops severely and it breaks my heart. 💔 I'm not ready for the cold, not yet! It just finally got to the perfect "sweater weather!" GIVE ME MORE TIME TO ENJOY IT!! I swear I went from wearing shorts last week to soon to be pulling out my winter coat! 😩 OK. Wow. STOP. IT. Why do I keep complaining!? I've gotten to experience and do so much. I'm stopping this RIGHT NOW. I'm going to stop dreading the future and start enjoying every moment of every day and romanticizing it to be the MAX! As I mentioned above, I went on the most beautiful and perfect autumnal bike ride (because I live in the most beautiful area! 🙏), I've been watching the original Addams Family television show (it's so wholeso...

Song(s): Bone Shaker & Dead Don't Die Artist: LVCRFT ONE WEEK UNTIL H A L L O W E E N ! !   🎃👻💀🦇🧛🧹✨ I have to keep reminding myself that I've had a GREAT month celebrating the season. I've gotten to do A LOT of fun things; I've read spooky books, listened to all my favorite Halloween songs, eaten yummy food and sweets, watched new movies and shows, etc. etc. etc. Because for some reason, I'm feeling overwhelmed and panicked that I haven't done it all! And guess what, that's because I CAN'T do it all! Ever. No matter what season of life I'm in. This year is going to be the most different Halloween yet and it makes me sad. BUT I've also still done many of the things I've wanted to do. It doesn't matter that I didn't get to do it ALL. BE GRATEFUL for what you have done and still will be doing.  Sorry for the personal little pep talk I had to have with me, myself and I. I need to remind myself to chill sometimes, haha...

Song(s): Amas Veritas, you should see me in a crown & W.I.T.C.H. Artist(s): Alan Silvestri, Billie Eilish & Devon Cole It's that time in the month where there's still so many songs left to share, every post has to have more than one! Also, welcome back to Witchy Wednesday my pretties! 🧙‍♀️🧹✨ Amas Veritas This is the "main theme" from the movie Practical Magic. I watched it last year and liked it pretty well. I won't be watching it again this year, too many other things are taking priority. But I hear this song in a lot of fall/Halloween reels and videos and it's a nice change up from some of the "heavier" songs I sometimes gravitate toward this time of year... you should see me in a crown Not a big Billie Eilish fan but she definitely has music that is creepy and disturbing enough for the season! And this is one of the "tame" ones! 😳 First heard it in an episode of Agatha All Along... so it's on brand for my witch theme. ...

Song(s): The Void  & I Want Candy 🍬🍭 Artist(s): Magnolia Park & LVCRFT Feeling like a LITERAL PSYCHOPATH RIGHT NOW!! 😖😫😣😭🤯 I just binge ate the stupidest CRAP for NO FREAKING REASON!! Overall, I had a good day; for NO REASON should I have LOST IT like that!! I feel overwhelmed!! My face is breaking out and my skin looks DISGUSTING , I'm chubby in ALL MY CLOTHES  (hmmm, I wonder why? 🙄), my hair is nasty looking and thinning, I feel like I look OLD . And I FEEL like CRAP because I keep emotionally eating CRAP . Like, I have so many fun things to look forward to and just because one little thing isn't going to work out I'm UPSET?? I feel like the biggest hypocrite and most spoiled, entitled, BRAT on the planet!! And at 32 FREAKING YEARS OLD!! I am a CHILD .  Whew. Sorry. Had to vent. I just discovered Magnolia Park this year and...I'm feeling their music! 😭😳😠😰😩😭 Another anthem courtesy of my stupid brain and the current stat of my menta...
