My year in lists: 20 Albums

That’s something.) “Keep This To Yourself”// Transit “The Sound of Human Lives”// Therefore I Am (rip) “The Dish Dogs”// The Dish Dogs “Sigh No More”// Mumford & Sons “The...

Day 10: 1 confession...
(this is sort of lame) I started journaling again today. Legit journaling— pen to paper, talking about real things, sorting out some real shit. Here we go, 2011.

Day 5: 6 things I wish I'd never done...
This one’s bogus. Regrets are worthless. I can’t think of one thing that I’ve done that I wish I never did, regardless of what happened to me as a result— we’re the products of our experiences. I am who I am because of the things that I’ve done. I think I’m okay with that thus far (even if I’ve made some poor choices). Is this a cop out? Oh well.

Day 4: 7 Things that Cross my Mind a lot...
what is it going to take for me to get myself together? because I need a change.  BOYS. BOYS. BOYS. (always.) what nice gesture I should do for someone, but then often drop the ball on doing…like send a package, or leave a note, etc. do I really want to move to Boston? am I being foolhardy thinking I can hack it there? will I hate it? how badly I miss living in the Shenanadoah...

Challenge :: Day One
1. It’s like…everything has always been a lie. Everything. It makes so much sense, but it makes me so sad. And now, what am I supposed to do?? I don’t feel like I know what to say to you most days because all I can think about is what you told me. 2. There is something immensely comforting in your consistency. Consistently calm, reserved, interested yet removed. I still hate how...

LUAU- Hill Street Blues →
Yo, friends. Jake, Myke & Steve just digitally released some sweet new jams— they will be out on a 7” in the near future. Check them out, as they are gritty and awesome to turn up loud. Support the boys by purchasing “Hill Street Blues” (or “Bad News Hotel” for that matter) from that bandcamp site asap! Good dudes, good tunes— good idea!
