I have something embarrassing to admit, and I think you nerds are the only people who may understand. I like to write songs sometimes, but I don't have anything to write about. I mean, I have LOTS to write about, but writing personally is difficult, especially difficult to make interesting to anyone who isn't you, and REALLY difficult to share with anyone besides your own furtive tears. Anyway, I started writing songs about X-Men, because it seemed easy. And it has been. So now I've got all these songs about X-Men which I can never use because I'll never get rights.

Anyway, it's kind of grossly embarrassing that I've A) spent this much time thinking about the internal dialogue and struggles of the X-People, B) decided to compound nerdiness with nerdiness by musicalizing them in the style of musical theatre, and C) that I'm so proud of them that I'd like other people to hear them. Since I'll be ridiculed anywhere else I attempt to showcase these, and because you're all nerdy comics-loving theatre-fag types, I'm giving them to you. Witness my shame.

I'm going to post a new one every so often, I'll update here when I do.
