Let's see. Um, I had to scrape frost of my windshield so I could drive home from work at 2am. That was cool. I am 98% done with my Christmas shopping, and if you aren't family, expect a gift card at most, sorry, it's been a tough year and I'm still totally broke from NYC. Only three days until Christmas and when you work in retail those are pretty much the best words ever, except for two/one day[s] until Christmas and then Yesterday was Christmas. It's pretty cold outside, yeah? Hmmm, there's lots of stuff I could talk about but pretty much nothing I'd want to have publicized.

Lately I've "downloaded" some new tunes. The following is a list of groups/artists I've been listening to obsessively recently:

• Andrew Bird. You gotta love a guy who plays violin and whistles, not to mention his amazing voice.
  
• Rilo Kiley. This is a recent one, I only have their latest CD and it is addicting. I must have listened to it 5 times today.
• Yo La Tengo. I have no clue what their name means.
• Cat Power. When I get depressed about life in general I listen to Cat Power. Until that song about how she just hates life and wants to die comes up and then I put on something cheerier, but not too cheery.
• The Decemberists. I have loved them for years now, but I've gotten some of their older albums and also a recent live EP and my love is cemented forever.
• Daft Punk. Now, I know it's "trendy" to be into Daft Punk, but I can't help it, that shizz is catchy.
• Feist. Who doesn't love "1234"?
  

That is pretty much what my iTunes has been playing for the past few weeks. I still adore but haven't listened to the following in a while:

• The Shins. I still love you, but too much is too much.
• Arcade Fire. Eh.
• Belle & Sebastian. My love, I adore you. I know you don't like being called "twee" so I won't, but you're too cute to listen to 24/7.
• Zero 7. I don't really need to be mellowed out as of late, but when I do, you're my "Speed Dial No. 2."
  

1. I would rather listen to music all night than sleep.
2. I told my dad about Pittsburgh and not going to Cal State and he seemed alright with it.
3. No one looks at my MySpace, I linked to this blog and I don't think anyone is that interested in me. I don't blame them.
4. I don't illegally download music, I simply store other people's archive copies of songs on my hard drive, and my iPod...
