nothing you can say can stop me

So Emmy nominations were announced. I feel so randomly, ridiculously proud of Chris Colfer you'd think I had something to do with his raising. Jesus. I adore that kid. I'm so excited for him it's ridiculous.

Also making me ridiculously proud: Pete Wentz.

I couldn't put my finger on it, but on the way to Little Rock for TYV, I told Shai that, really, Spencer and Brendon got me in the Panic! divorce, and Pete Wentz got me in the FOB (TEMPORARY!!!) separation. I realized today why Pete got custody of me, when I read his note at the Black Cards website. More specifically, when I read, "I wanted to try a female vocalist cos I couldn't imagine trying to replace Patrick." You guys, Pete Wentz loves his band as much as I do! This is hard for him. And I'm totally on Team Pete because of it. I don't mean to be! I don't want to take sides! But... Pete feels like I feel about it, I think, and I am ridiculous.

I sort of want to give everyone in the world a hug.

Awww, thanks for posting all this great stuff. I totally hear you about who gets custody of you in a band separation; it's a heartbreaking decision, and one that, for me, isn't very conscious, but I still clearly end up on one side.

I hadn't seen the new stuff on Black Cards, so thanks for sharing it! It does break my heart a bit to hear Pete talk about FOB.

I actually really enjoy the Black Cards stuff. It's sort of old school Panic, almost. Plus, there are rumors that it's Ashlee doing the vocals, which means that the only person Pete can imagine replacing Patrick as his voice is, you know, his wife.

Pete totally breaks my heart, all the time. But I can't help but love him more for loving that band as much as I do, and being as much of a fan as I am, you know? Pete's a believer, he's one of the car crash hearts. And I'm right there with him.
