After the stitches debacle? I got strep throat for the first time since 3rd grade. Today is my first day back at work, I have a literal pile of papers on my desk to sort through (not to mention the two carts of books that need cataloging), two classes tonight, homework, and a dear friend coming into town this week-end. So this is what I have to offer.
New music (to my iPod) for 2011:
- Wintersleep: "Weighty Ghost"
- Iron and Wine: "Each Coming Night"
- Rolling Stones: "Gimme Shelter" (My favorite Stones tune.)
- Rise Against: "Audience of One" (Proof that sometimes I do hear things on the radio I like. The singer's voice reminds me of Samiam.)
- The Hives: "Hate to Say I Told You So"
- Cage the Elephant: "Shake Me Down" and "Back Against the Wall" and "In One Ear" (So far, I like everything from this band. So far.)
- Archie Bronson Outfit: "Dart for My Sweetheart" (Watched too much UK Skins when I was sick.)
- Mike Posner: "Cooler Than Me" (Caught this video for this during an insomnia episode a few weeks ago and couldn't get it out of my head.)
- Mountain: "Mississippi Queen" (Because I am literally pining away for summer.)
- Stone Sour: "Say You'll Haunt Me"
Also. Due to the stitches and strep, I didn't accomplish a single one of my January goals- not even the eating of kale. So.
February Goals:
- Walk Sam everyday.
- Take a walk during lunch everyday.
- Try Kale.
- Make more smoothies.

i totally forgot to tell you, we made kale chips the other night, delicious!!!
you just remove the stems, tear into smaller pieces, coat in olive oil, season with salt and pepper. Bake at 400 for 15-20 minutes.
Crunchy and delish. However, don't leave leftovers in the trash inside, smells like Zeus toots.
Z- LMAO. Good to know, on all counts! I'll have to try making them. :)
I am in love with the new Iron & Wine album! I feel like I've been reading a lot of mixed reviews---some people saying they've strayed too far from their original sound. I totally disagree. It's a fantastic album.
Hannah,
I totally agree with you! I don't think it's really straying, it sounds to me more like they've evolved. Glad to know someone else is enjoying it!
