This almost didn't happen. (BEDA #13)

I really can't stand it when our cable provider, Charter, decides to do maintenance randomly. I remember that they used to send out letters and digital messages telling us when they were going to do said maintenance. What happened, Charter? Why are you not being courteous anymore? We would like to know so those of us who are blogging everyday can make an effort to post a blog earlier in the day. You're lucky that you finished early.

Not only was Charter having problems, but so was Verizon. My brother came home about an hour after the internet went out yelling at me because I wouldn't answer my phone. Apparently he had called me three or four times. I didn't get a single one of them. Nor did I have any message saying that I missed a call. He shortly tried sending me a text message and I got the message roughly fifteen minutes after he sent it.

What is going on?

After I posted the blog yesterday, I went to Love You To Death's website, and found out a couple of things that to me are awesome. I want to share because I think all of you that like free music will enjoy it too!

They released a free EP called "Putting Out So You Like Us More" back in December. It is really good, but I think all their music is really good. :)

They also have it to where all of their cd's are only .01 cent plus shipping which is practically a steal. Most of the time I will not buy cd's online because the shipping ends up being ridiculous. With this it is almost as if you were buying the cd's at a store for really cheap. Because of that I bought "6 Week Summer Vacation In Hell" and "Recipe For A Ghost" (I already bought "Recipe For A Ghost" through iTunes, but I really love having cd copies of music that I love, so I couldn't resist.) I also bought a button. I only spent $11.75 and all of that except $1.02 is shipping. If you were to split that in half, that is about the same price as you would pay for used cd's. It's awesome!!!

I still have yet to work on the workout playlist though... I am such a procrastinator. I need to work on that.

Today's music video is coming to you based on a coin flip. I make fun of my friend for always flipping a coin on things he has a hard time deciding on, and here I go doing the exact same thing. :) I told him that he can call me a hypocrite if I ever poke fun at him because of that again, but I digress.

The video that won is from one of my favorite Canadian bands, Billy Talent. (Just a little fun fact, the other video in question was also from a Canadian performer. I can't help it that Canadian's have very talented musicians!) This video is probably their mildest video that they have released. What I mean by that is all of their other video are rather weird! I didn't choose any of their other videos because I wanted to use that in a future music video cluster blog. *Rubs hands together in thought of her master plans* The video is "Red Flag" off their album "Billy Talent II". If you are a Burnout fan like I am, you will recognize this song from Burnout Revenge and Burnout Legends.

Well it is time for me to go catch up on my Harry Potter reading.
