"The New Year" - Death Cab for Cutie

Hello All,

Hope you all had a wonderifus holiday. How gay is that? I need to develop some more creative greetings than that, eh? Either way, Julia hooked me up with this newfound inspiration from this book and I hope to step my game up in terms of writing. Even better news is that I'm quitting weed; so soon I'll actually remember what I read instead of relying on my intermittent subconscious to deliver the findings. Yep, I've decided to drop the anchor on my pot habit before my pot habit manifests into a pot belly. Ok, I'm not buying but I'll totally smoke if anyone has any. Ok, smoke me out and I'll buy you a drink, how bout that? Ok, really, they're less like absolutes and more like notso-oftens-as-I-usedtoos. Well, it's been two days....I need a sponsor to support me. Maybe Marlboro?

Well, I wanted to start off the year with Cat Power again. I know, I need to kick my habit of sending her as often as I do. You see, there's this thing going on...it's called laziness. Kind of, but then again, maybe I just really want everyone to like Cat Power. See, people? Keeping you on your toes.

I'm a fucking enigma. (therefore, justifying the line break)

En garde!

I just thought I'd bring this song up because it reminded me of how it seems like...I'm not going to make anything up. Ok, it's a new year. Let me send out a song that is reflective of it....hold on, I'm going to swap it out.

Ok, so this was the first song I've ever heard from Death Cab for Cutie about 4 years ago or so...whatever. I'm relatively new to this independent rock thing but I meticulously mask it with some self-righteousness and I comment on people's breath when they oppose me. It works, trust me. So, when I first heard the name, I thought "What the hell is this? Metal rockers with a flair for pet names? Or like a soccer mom driving her kids to...uhh...death..or like...Orange County!?!" Please don't make me think about Orange County anymore. Ever notice how there's both an "O" and a "C" in "Orange County is a piece of crap?"

Coincidence? Whatever, Stinky.
