It's June. How did that happen? Here are my favorites from May.
Without a doubt...my favorite song in a long time: Blurred Lines by Robin Thicke with TI and Pharrell. Great beat, funny lyrics and I think Pharrell Williams looks adorable in the video. I can listen to this over and over again. LOVE.
Hurricane by MSMR - new duo from NY...haunting, pretty, odd.
I Love You by Said The Whale - Listen and tap your feet. It's pretty perfect and I love it.
Aviation High by Semi Precious Weapons - I seem to be going back and forth between poppy and ethereal pop and this is the latter...if it fits anywhere. Is Happy Haunting a thing? We're alive alive and apparently so are parachute pants.
It Never Stops by Bad Books - OK so this is one of those "technically published in 2012" songs, but I like it anyway. I'm a fan of Bad Books, even though I am not a huge fan of Manchester Orchestra.
You and I by Crystal Fighters- back to poppy - take a listen to this summer song and feel happy.
Instant Crush by Daft Punk/Julian Casablancas - OK Daft Punk is one of those bands that has done so many random things over the last few years you probably either love them or hate them. Generally I really like them so was pretty excited about their latest release. So they get two inclusions this month...this slightly annoying and yet hooky Instant Crush and then....
Get Lucky featuring Pharrell Williams - OK so I may have a wee crush on Pharrell. He's a cutie. This song is awesome.
Diamonds by The Boxer Rebellion - I have a book next to my computer and when I hear a song I like I write it down. If I look and I have already written it down, I star it to note that I really like it. This one has a ton of stars. Really like it. The band has been around since 2001and their stuff has been in a ton of commercials and tv shows.
Have you watched Blurred Lines yet? Bought it? It's so great!!
When a tweet or status update just isn't enough... An online diary of whatever is on my mind.
About Me
Cast of Characters
I hope you enjoy my blog posts. If one makes you happy or sad or angry or mad, please comment. I love comments!
For newcomers, I thought a cast of frequently mentioned characters might help. I try to give good descriptions of people as they are mentioned but these are some of the important people in my life that might be mentioned on a more recurring basis (in no particular order)
Pacey - My African Grey Parrot. She will live 60-80 years, talks, has the intelligence of a 3 year old and is truly part of the family.
My Mom - An awesomely strong, funny, beautiful woman who has made me who I am.
My Dad - To say I am a Daddy's Girl is a HUGE understatement. I'm very lucky to say my parents are my friends.
Mike - My baby brother. Mike is a golf pro but is better known now for his coffee shop, The Roasted Record. He is 6 years younger than me and even though we only talk every few months, I still think we are close and there isn't anything I wouldn't do for him. He loves biking and golfing and is growing up to be an amazing person.
Shelia - I have worked with Shelia for years but we have gotten closer over the last few years. We spent an awesome week in Key West and she is one of the people that inspired me to start this blog and write. Check out her blog at sheliataylor.com.
<>Sandy and Miller - Sandy used to be my boss and now she is my friend. She had a baby and I was lucky enough to be her birth partner. We went through birthing classes together and I was there when Miller was born. He is my surrogate nephew and I am very lucky to be able to spend time with him as he grows up and becomes an amazing little man. Sandy is strong, sarcastic and hysterically funny and I love her for letting me be a part of her and Miller's life.
