Woke up to a gorgeous sunshiney day in Athens, GA. Packed a suitcase, and made the stress-free/trouble-free drive to the airport. Now I’m sitting in the Skylounge enjoying the quiet and free food/beverages before heading to DC where I get to spend some time with: One of my favorite pals from grad school One of my favorite Tumblrs Two of my favorite bands. Not too shabby eh?

Most of the songs included in my year-end compilation are not by extremely well-known artists. So, if you...

Forever 27

Whenever someone asks me how old I am, I instinctively want to say 27. However, the ten gazillion “Happy Birthdays!” filling up my Facebook page reminded me that, chronologically speaking, I’m a year older today and 27 was a while ago now.
