HOT BUTTERED SOUL

So after 4 years of Livejournal, I decided to switch over to Blogger. Why? Well, because it's nicer, I think. In each post I think I'm going to try and include a little bit of photo and a little bit of music so I can share some of the random gems I seem to come across so often. Feel free to send me stuff too.

Anyway, it's become apparent that our apartment is falling apart. It's kind of like that movie The Money Pit except less extreme, and our house doesn't fall down Mousetrap style when someone trips over a rug. But first bedbugs, then one toilet flusher broke, then the other, then the light in the living room stopped working which they fixed, and now none of the lights on the other half of the house work which includes my room, Meg's room, Eric's room, and the bathroom. So basically, I've been living with one clamp light in here and one in the bathroom for over a week. Out of force of habit, every time I walk into any of those rooms, I still flip the light switch on , which further aggravates me since it obviously never goes on.

Also, I've been vaguely sick for the past two weeks and frankly, I'm just sick and tired of being sick. Of course not sleeping much doesn't help much. What sucks too is that these coughing fits really interfere with my almost-a-pack-a-day smoking habit. Yeah yeah, I know.

MP3:

Did anyone know Beth Gibbons of Portishead put out another album afterwards? I didn't. But I always wished she did. And to my delight, I've discovered it thanks to the good ol' SVA silkscreening lab, always on top of things. I'm a little late though, it came out in 2002. The album is called Out of Season and I guess it's a collaboration with Rustin Man, whom I've never heard of. I downloaded most of the album and it's pretty awesome (but what could she sing on that's not). Anyway, this song is fucking amazing. I've listened to it non-stop since I got it. Enjoy.
