Sunday Mix Tape Number 161

I’m not sleeping well. The last two mornings in Birmingham I woke up at 6:30am and couldn’t get back to sleep. My first morning back in Los Angeles I woke up again and couldn’t get back to sleep. Last night I thought if I stayed out late enough it would tire me out completely. So, I stayed out until after 3:00am, then passed out and woke up 2 hours later. I did not fall back asleep. I cannot explain how annoying this is. I hate feeling stressed. It ends up ruining everything from sleep patterns to, uh…other stuff. One of these nights I’ll sleep. I hope…

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. Of course there’s a fucking theme this week. Duh. 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.
