my main goal for the day is to pack for the trip to somewherethatisnothere and to make some mix CDs for the forever and a day ride to somewherethatisnothere which i think is just to the left of outinthemiddleofnowhere.
it’s quite a journey, 4.5 hours by car. but i can’t wait. i am, however, having a bit of trouble with the music. see FFJ likes stuff that i don’t even know about besides perhaps the black crowes, her ATFB. i like well, everything else.
it’s quite a challenge. it’s been ages and ages since i made some road trip CDs perhaps since skal and i made the journey to milwaukee one summer years and years ago.
so far, i got nothing and i have to be to her house in 3ish hours and i haven’t even showered. in fact, when she called i was just sort taking a nap #2 in a 3 nap series. mostly i was just thinking about if i were a junior high schooler in the late 80s in Helena Montana how i would have totally let colin meloy touch my boobies.
ok, time to make the donuts.
Go to your friendly neighborhood cd seller and buy Kirsty MacColl’s “Tropical Brainstorms”. You won’t be sorry, and you won’t need another CD for the whole 4.5 hours. And if you DO need more CD’s, get the Eels’ “SoulJacker” and the “Future Soundtrack for America” (which has the new Mike Doughty song, dontchaknow).
