1. My mom's Christmas Village 3.0 is, as the kids say nowadays, ginormous. Wish I were going back this year but there's too much work.
2. Work is slowing down, but the end of the quarter at Cal State Hayward (I refuse to call it Cal State East Bay, sorry) is approaching quickly, and I have a winter class at UC Davis that I haven't taken care of yet, and I have a manuscript due in January.
3. So those monthly mp3 mixes won't be showing up for a while, I'm afraid. But a glimpse of what it would have looked like:
- Caribou, "Melody Day"
- Chatmonchy, "Renai Spirits"
- Wild Billy Childish and The Musicians of the British Empire, "Date with Doug"
- Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings, "What Have You Done For Me Lately, Part 1"
- Jean Knight, "Do Me"
- The Zombies, "This Will Be Our Year" (where was this song all my life???)
and a couple of stray Spoon tracks ("I Turn My Camera On," "Sister Jack"), plus an old Interpol song ("Obstacle 1").
4. Though I'm still reading stuff online -- check out my del.icio.us feed / bookmarks on the right.
5. Yes, I've gone back to Twitter.
