- I've been meaning to make a mix CD for my dad for the longest time, in the hopes of indoctrinating him into my musical oeuvre of sorts. If and when I complete this extended task, the CD should include the following:
- "Knife" by Grizzly Bear
- "Mykonos" or "Drops In the River" by Fleet Foxes
- "Good Intentions Paving Company" by Joanna Newsom
- "Cheerleader" by Grizzly Bear
- "Baby Birch" by Joanna Newsom
- "No Intention" by Dirty Projectors
- Look for a fun copper pot or bowl (Pearl District?).
- Work on starting to grow sprouts at home.
- I've developed two recent obsessions, both of which seem to be particularly characteristic of where my life is at currently: apparently, a state of prolonged desperation. Anyway, the first is Bonnie 'Prince' Billy (particularly the albums "I See A Darkness," "Beware" and "Ease Down the Road"). The second, a bit stranger, is Keanu Reeves/Sean Penn/Kathryn Bigelow movies (yes, all at once). This distinctive pattern seems to have been crystalized by my accidental watching of "Point Break," "A Walk In the Clouds," "Sweet November," "The Crossing Guard" and "Bad Boys (1983)," in that particular order. Of course, these are soon to be followed up by "The Weight of Water," "My Own Private Idaho" and "River's Edge."
