Turning 34 today which means I can no longer claim to be in my early thirties (tragic) but it does mean I can start referring to myself as middle-aged when I want to horrify my peers (hilarious)

Went to karaoke last night and sang Evanescence’s Bring Me To Life, as is my custom

The next performer after me was my little sister, a trained vocalist, who sang the exact same song

The only downside to finding a new, awesome album full of songs about an anime I haven’t seen is that when other people see the cover art, they ask a lot of questions I have no idea how to answer
