1992 was a great year. this is one of my favorite songs from that year, and also, one of my favorites, well, ever.
the pre-chorus arpeggiated singdown still gives me chills every time.
also the a cappella breakdown. almost brought me to tears. i love music that can pull emotion out of me. maybe i'm gay. i certainly have a woman's taste in music. in some ways, at least.
2016? maybe not a great year. is age just a number? who can say.
i still look good, at least my face. but i'm a museum piece. untouched and untouchable.
will someone dust me off and take me off display this year?

got my birthday burrito, two days late. carne asada, ate it on the drive home.
it was just fine.
did up the crockpot with some ground bison soup, took a nap and now i'm watching charlie brown christmas and brimming with tears.
my kid is not going to be with me for christmas this year, so a bit of a dry run.
my sister got me some pike place roast for my birthday and it just straight up lit my ass up. i've been on the coffee teet for months, but apparently i wasn't prepared for a "medium" roast.
how did i go from a linus childhood to a charlie brown adulthood?
:(

it is kinda depressing when i hear a musician who manages to capture, crystalize, and encapsulate the emotion of pain better than me.
it's amazing and uplifting and wonderful to hear, mind you. maybe the catalyst of pain is simply delivered better by a female voice than a man.
simply jaw-droppingly beautiful. haunting.

self realization: i may have a bit of an addictive or obsessive personality.
case in point: over the years, i have a sauron-like gaze with certain artists.
the listing below: the approximate age when each artist first "spoke" to me.
(as best as I can recall)
obviously, these are my favorite musicians.
my current obsession is the smiths. not sure if they'll make the cut.
