“Everyone has AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS AIDS!” Louise had a lovely birthday dinner (she made traditional Danish foods, and also there was a bowl of macaroni and cheese with hot dogs!), we played a rousing game of Apples to Apples, and now Tom, Thesy and I are watching Team America: World Police, which pathetic Thesy has never seen before. The pathetic girl.
Hey, here’s a mix tape! Please enjoy!
RULES for uninitiated noobs: With roughly 100MB of webspace, I give birth to a weekly Mix Tape to be deposited on your iPods or Zunes or Kingklangs or whatever the industry is currently pushing on you. Sometimes there will be themes that link all the songs together, other times I’ll just throw songs at a wall (not literally) and see what sticks. This week is all about the change from November to December. All over the country (except for Southern California, where I live) it’s getting colder. It even snowed last month when I was in New Jersey! This mix is dedicated to everybody who has to spend tonight bundled up indoors because it’s too frigid to step outside. Let this mix tape be my strong, naked body. Let it keep you warm tonight. And by that I mean disregard the fact that every song title involves the words “cold”, “ice”, “winter”, or something related. Oh, look, I even snuck in an Obscure References song! Shameless self-promotion alert! As always, these songs will be removed if desired by the band or those who represent them. Let me know and I will gladly comply. The goal of this endeavor, as always, is to pique your interest in these artists so you’ll support the artists and buy their albums.
