What I Listened To In A Year Part 19
A while back I (think I) said that this breakdown didn’t have a soundtrack… yet. But it clearly has and did from before I ever knew what was going on. I know I have written about them and have certainly mentioned the song before but In A Sweater Poorly Knit by mewithoutYou has been my… — read more

What I Listened To In A Year Part 18
Everything is slowing down. Kind of. The panic has all but gone. And while I can now focus on things I’m finding that I need to have almost too much going on. It’s as if my brain just needs to spin at this ridiculous speed constantly. I’ve taken to calling this squirreling. I flit from… — read more

So hey there, that’s a smashing blouse you’ve got on there. It’s been a while hasn’t it? A lot has gone on. A LOT has gone on. I left my wife and that’s all I am going to say on the subject. I have my own place now. A nice little one bed flat where… — read more

What I listened To In A Year Part 11
In a previous entry I (rightfully) claimed that Semi-Detached by Therapy? was the greatest album of 1998. This is a claim that I stand by but I had to fact check just to see what I was putting it up against and saw an album that I adore but one that I didn’t find until… — read more

What I Listened To In A Year Part 10
