those boys that save my life every day?
well - they are men now. they are honest to god men and it is the weirdest thing. Sure, I know they have families and two have children and they're all married, but they've always been this part of me that doesn't ever really let go. They've always been a constant. If I had to write a scientific report for my Chemistry Class about my life in a scientific experiment, it would be to test the only constant that has been in my life, and thats this band. Let's test how many times they've made me cry with the same song. How many times I threaten to kill whoever says anything negative about them to me. How many times their quotes keep me from purging. how many times they keep me from going out into my garage and drinking myself into a complete coma. how many times they make me smile. how many times they make me giggle.
well, now lets talk about the men they've become.
They got dressed up today and went to the NME awards, which if I were in their shoes, I wouldn't have done, and if they were the boys I have known forever they wouldn't have done either. They were attending the awards show of the magazine who has called them "Emo Gods" or "Goth Rock" since 2005. They were up for the most prestigious awards tonight, and they won two of them. My men won video of the year and best international band. and you know what? I am a very fucking proud momma.
