It's True

I'm still amazed any time a coworker wanders into my office and notices the music I'm playing. For the most part, I listen to metalcore or Steely Dan while working onsite. Folks come in during a screamy song, get tongue-tied and apologize for bothering me.

Then I get the inevitable, "I never expected you to like that kind of music." (Also, what exactly does "the kind" of music mean?)

Not sure what people are expecting when they see me - I guess I look like a fan of Sesame Street songs or something? A reminder to keep an open mind in this new year. Never assume a non-tattooed girlie doesn't love the heavy shit!

You've met me, Allyson... no one is EVER surprised to hear the music coming out of my edit room at work! LOL!

Horns up!

P.S. Thanks for the book recommendations, as well!

If I walked in on someone listening to metalcore, I’d ask them why don’t they listen to real metal(must be the guy liner)? Then vacate the area asafp!!! 🤮
