I’m staying in on a Wednesday night and reading a NYT blog article about Michelle Obama’s arms. I’m officially a nerd.
PS. I just booked a flight to Barcelona and I’m now Facebook friends with my senoña. Life is awesome.
Weezy’s bringing it back.
I cannot fucking wait to hear Katie Couric interview Mr. Bestselling Artist of 2008 Weezy. “I’m a gangsa and gangstas don’t ask questions.”
Lately listens.
Deerhunter- “Nothing Ever Happens”
Hot Chip- “One Pure Thought”
Ruby Suns- “Tane Mahuta”
This song is my happiness.
The Field- “Silent”
Coldplay’s “The Scientist” looped in reverse over simple ambient beats. Aah, perfection.
Mad linkage.

Decisions, decisions.
A kick-ass career opportunity or barrels and barrels of fun? Oh, it’s a tough one.

Bored. Here’s some tunes I’m diggin’. I still don’t know how to upload audio onto here so YouTube will continue to suffice.
Portishead- “Machine Gun”
Cut Copy- “Feel the Love”
MSTRKRFT- “Easy Love”
TinyMixTapes
I recently applied to become a music reviewer for TinyMixTapes, a noted critical voice on Metacritic’s listings. I received confirmation this weekend that my application was accepted and I’ll soon begin writing three (unpaid) articles per month, in addition to my Daily work. Yaay!
ps. My boyfriend thinks that critics suck. I would too, but I love being a condescending literate music junkie far too much to give it up.
