Spring is here while I'm at The Black Parade.

It's absolutely stunning outside today. Proof spring is finally rearing it's head. I like spring.. because it's warm, but not to hot. However, spring is bumped down to #2 in the ranks of favorite season behind Fall just for the simple fact that I don't have to cut the grass during fall. And that is just awesome.

I hate cutting the grass.

Today was absolutely perfect for taking a walk. We decided to roam previously uncharted areas of Pittsburgh just because it was so nice. The only thing that sucks is that I was absolutely exhausted today (Dur dur dur Jordan you dumbass go to bed for once in your life.) and walking for an hour and a half or so totally killed me.

I think I'm just out of shape.

Lately, I can't stop listening to my Chemical Romance's new album. And to be honest I'm a little ashamed of it because MCR is just one of those bands that irritates the fuck out of me... but this new style they have goin here I really dig. The whole album is just crafted so well I can't put it down just because a bunch of homos made it. I might (MIGHT) even go as far as to say it's one of the best (to me, anyway) albums of 2006. In my top 5, probably, which would go something like this.

5. MCR- The Black Parade (Wild ride of emotions)
4. Mushroomhead - Savior Sorrow (Eerie, hard, mellow and brilliance wrapped into one package)
3. (tie) Burden Brothers - Mercy (The perfect new age rock album. Period.)
3. Stone Sour - Come What(Ever)May (The perfect current age hard rock alternative metal... thing. period.)
2. In Flames - Come Clarity (A brutal masterpeice. Finally an album to finally leap the hurdle of the same mediocre nu-metal we've been hearing for the past half a decade.)
1. Gnarls Barkley - St. Elsewhere (The Crazy Go-Go Gadget Gospel packed with everything including the kitchen sink called St. Elsewhere. Wonderfully covers Gone Daddy Gone while still keeping on Smiley Faces even if there is a Boogie Man near by. Don't forget to Feng Shui your environment, it's Just A Thought. Who Cares about Transformers and Necromancers Online, there's a Storm Coming. This is probably the Last Time you'll listen to something so brilliant. In all seriousness... this album sticks out as the best for one fact and one fact only. It's not afraid to tear down walls. It sends chills down your spine only to get your foot tapping next song. This album is brilliant and that's all there is to it.)

I don't know, I could very well get sick of MCR very quickly. I tend to do that with music sometimes. If anything though.. it will forever have a place in my heart as that album I hate to love.
