Best. Video. Ever!
I’ve decided to name all my blog posts lyrics from songs – some will be obvious, others, not so much. LOL. Don’t ask why I am doing it this way, I just am. I think the past couple have been and I am going to continue to do so. Just call me wacky!
Anyway, I’ve updated my collective, again. Added all my recent sites to the list so it’s fully complete now. I am fairly satisfied with it. There are a couple sites I would love to have, but probably won’t ever:
• Nina Dobrev
• Paul Wesley
• Sam Worthington
• Katie Cassidy
• Benjamin McKenzie
• Zachary Quinto
I know, I know – just keep dreaming. LOL, and that’s what I am doing.
You may (or may not have) noticed, drive my soul has a new layout. I really like this look – it is simple, clean and pretty. Hopefully everyone else enjoys it as much as I do. I just modified a theme from the talented Mandy.
On a side note, I am a terrible blogger. It’s been almost a month since my last update. *Tisk tisk* on me. LOL. I’ll try to update more often, no promises though.
Fucking amazing.
I haven’t been happy with my collective and the sites I was looking after. They started to feel more like work, and less like fun. It’s weird, some of the sites I just gave up, I had wanted forever – but once I actually got them, I realized I’d rather just be a fan and not have a site for them. That was the specific case with Jessica Alba and getting my James Franco site back. I lost all motivation for Jason Segel once the site was lost. It was a massive site, and having to rebuild the entire thing was too time consuming. Below are my sites I gave away. They all have great new owners now, so I am happy about that. And feel free to stop by and support the new owners!

Something a little more exciting (for me) is on the way. As most of you know, I am a UNBELIEVABLY HUGE fan of Slipknot/Stone Sour singer, Corey Taylor, well, I am building a site for him right now. Yes! I am so excited for this site, it’s one I have wanted for a very long time and am thrilled I am finally opening one for him! The site will be accessible from, http://corey-taylor.net so keep checking back for the launch!!
I must admit, I am a little annoyed right now. I don’t want to vent because I am not sure who reads this blog. But all I am going to say is, I’m annoyed. Argh. Fansites. I don’t know why I am getting so upset over this.
Somedays I wish there were more hours in the day – or more days in the week. Fansites are something that I absolutely love, almost an obsession. But I am reasonable. I realize I cannot (properly) run a fansite on all the celebrities I want to run one for. And that makes me sad, lol. Not burst into tears, slit my wrists sad – more of a bummed out wishing for one or two extra hours a day to dedicate myself to online time. The reason I ask for MORE time in the day is because I do have a social life. Ha ha. I enjoy going out, partying, drinking, going out for dinner, socializing, going to movies, to the bar, out shopping, etc, etc, etc.
… I seemed to have lost my train of thought. I got carried away listing things I like to do, I forgot the purpose behind my post. ANYWAY, Corey Taylor or Slipknot and Stone Sour is my absolute love. I would probably give up all my sites to run one for him. Problem is, I love my other sites too much to do that. But the thought does cross my mind every now and again. I think I make note of Corey on almost every blog. It’s an obsession. No, I stand corrected. I am not obsessed, just dedicated.
I revised my collective. So everything is updated and organized. I gave up a few sites that were not fun for me anymore. I am feeling really good about my collective and enjoy the sites I have remaining.

Decided to post the actual song; this is not the official music video.
For some reason, Matthew Good (and/or the Matthew Good Band) can always sum up what I am feeling. Even when it doesn’t make sense or have any immediate rhyme or reason. He is just able to express it, even when I don’t understand what it is.
Ambition, ambition’s a tricky thing
It’s like riding a unicycle on a dental floss tightrope,
Over a wilderness of razor blades
Ambition can backfire
Ambition means more
Ambition means faster
Ambition means betterI wonder if you can sup—
Can you supersize ambition?
Does that make you ambitious if you supersize ambition?
Around here, our ambition hurts more than it helps
Around here our ambition throws an non-perishable item in a donation bin at;
Christmas and it pats itself on the fucking back
Because it thinks it’s done something decentYeah, we’re supersizing ambition
Make no mistake about it
Our ambition will televise the revolution
And it’ll sell more fucking commercial spots than the Super Bowl,
The Olympics, the World Series, and the Tragedy Du Jour combined
We’re supersizing
We’re supersizing the record
‘Cause we’re ambitious-21st Century Living (Matthew Good)
