"Happy Birthday America!"

"You finally qualify for the Seniors Discount at Denny's."

Hello children! It has been quite, quite, quite a while. Yes? Yes. I'm sorry. I said in my last post that I would, hopefully, be posting my Summer Playlist, and I have kept my word. That's one of the reasons why it has taken me so long to post again. I've had to go through all my music, choose songs, and then weed out and condense down...to 25 songs. It was originally at 100. That, my friends, is an accomplishment for me...

Before I post that list I must mention something that I really should have posted but did not. I played (my 3rd time, but 2nd time at this particular place) at Smoothie Joe's on 6/28. I'll hopefully have a few pictures up from that later on.

So, without further delay, my Summer2008 Playlist:

All That Matters, Addison Road
Suzie, Boy Kill Boy
How Love Goes, Brandon Kelley
Until You, Dave Barnes

Well, kiddies. That's it. Those are the soundtracks to my Summer...as things stand right now. Hahaha!

P.s., I finally watched The Wizard of OZ while listening to Pink Floyd's Dark Side of The Moon. Please, if you haven't, do so. It's hilarious. Especially when you have the matchup list... (I don't have the link on the desktop so I'll have to post that later from the Mac).

Enjoy your Holiday! Peace out.

The End.

I really need to change my playlist. I want to add more, but I have to delete some and I can't decide which ones to delete.

Thanks for the encouragement. :)
Whereabouts are you in Birmingham? I used to live in Homewood and Vestavia. Graduated from VHHS in '96.

Small world huh? I went back for my high school reunion two years ago. Things have definitely changed around there! You kow, there was this restaurant in Little 5 back in high school that served pizza with goat cheese on it. I can't remember the name of it, but I wonder if it's still there. We used to go eat pizza there and watch people play hackey sack on the lawn across the street.
I like the new layout. Looks far better than it did yesterday. I'm adding you to my blogroll. :)
