taken by trees

oh how I long to go walk in the woods. not the woods around here, somewhere far far away. the gray skies are getting a little bit too much. I want to look up and only see green. with the help of these 3d photos and the following music: i'm there.

you should come too...

today is now - uno

so, I'm going to try and start a new segment on GH every week where I post a nice little playlist of songs that i think are deserving of your attention. We'll see how it goes. Maybe (hopefully) every miercoles. This week includes some of my current favés like Washed Out and the xx. It's still a little hazy and summery, mainly because it's still hot as shit here.

Also, I've come across some awesome mid-century advertisements. I want to plaster them all over my walls. Check em out. Sorry, not very clever today.

The xx - Hot like fire

Smith Westerns - Be my girl

Best Coast - Something in the way

Washed Out - Belong

Pictureplane - Cyclical Cyclical (Atlantis)

otoño shows

I'm well aware of our little recession going on, but you need to figure out now how you're going to finance all the shows you'll be going to this fall. So, you can suck it up and go to these awesome shows, or sit at home and sulk... your choice. (These are all Atlanta shows, btw).

scotland calling

as I sit and watch this spectacular youtube video of Calvin Harris sonically molesting hot women it painfully reminds me of my days in ye olde Scotlandia. From the disgusting food to the school I taught at (lovingly nicknamed 'Little Bosnia'), I can't help but get a little teary-eyed. So, while you're spending your saturday dicking around youtube too, remember the simpler times...

Calvin Harris - Flashback

cruel verano

I've decided that I'm over summer. Everyone I know is getting all color and bothered. Everything is better in the fall: weather, clothes, televison-- I can't think of anything else, but that's all that matters anyway.

Through my keen senses of observation I have also noticed that summer makes everyone bored and mean. So, this goes out to y'all

New Boyz - You're a jerk
