I woke up today very nauseous again, but I'll probably be alright by tomorrow.

I want to sort of write a love letter to one of my favorite bands (yes, the Beatles).

While I was growing up, my family has been very attached to the Beatles and their music. My brother, sister, and I have collected an indescribable amount of random merchandise throughout the years that just fill our home. Quite literally, ever since I was an infant, the Beatles and their music has been in my life and I cannot escape them no matter what - but honestly, I would not have it any other way. It seems like every family has their own "thing", and this just so happens to be ours.

I have a very fond memory, and this being one of my first memories related to video games, is watching my brother play that shitty Rock Band Beatles game on the Wii. I still have those freaky 3d models stuck in my head from time to time, haha.

The amount of random Beatles memorabilia that just fills our basement is a sight to ogle at. Replica of Paul's missing bass, huge Abbey Road print that hasn't been taken off the walls in probably 13 years, their cartoon figures, cassettes, CDs, DVDs (official and bootleg!), vinyls, and so much more. Honestly, all of this stuff would be worth a lot of money now, especially with the rerelease of Let it Be on Disney+ (assuming they will get more traction again), but I am just so damn sentimental towards all of this stuff I would never have the heart to think about selling it. Right as I'm typing this, I actually have a copy of Help! on DVD sitting on my desk, waiting for the next time I inevitably watch it again and again.

I have always been under the impression that it is embarrassing to be obsessed with a band such as the Beatles. A lot of my friends tease me about it, and while it can be disheartening because they have been such a vital part of my life (especially my childhood), I guess I can understand the notion. I think as long as I am happy, then that is all that matters.
