There are Very Many Places

Everyone needs a little KOC (Kings of Convenience) in their life. This remix done by Four Tet rhythmically splices and gives you that build up throughout the entire track. I'm quite the sucker for going into the fade with drums and percussion bliss, and this track just about does it, while staying in an semi-organic zone. Enjoy!

The Road

Seldom do I come across a book that provokes me to finish it in an astounding 3 days flat till I came upon The Road, by Cormac McCarthy. A post-apocalyptic tale about a Father and son who journey through the gloomy world that has become nothing more than a damp, soiled, lifeless wasteland. The imagery is daunting with its graphic gray tones and to live a life where the ashes of hell fall upon one, is no life at all. Their enduring journey with hope that the coastline will bring some sort of real sunshine into their life, is that of a long shot, but a shot nonetheless.

Please do yourself a favor and read this book, as it is now one of my favorites... One of those books that makes you appreciate the life you have and those around you, it might even make you complain less about the little things you over dramatize yourself with. Oh, let me mind you it is an upcoming major motion picture, so read it soon!

And I highly suggest Sigur Ros to accompany you on your travels down The Road, to enhance and mystify... I leave you with quite possibly my favorite track off of Ágætis byrjun.

guten Morgen

Oh dreary mornings, which incline lazy lucid dreamers to sleep in, I heart thee. Thankfully I have raked in an unsubstantial amount of z points with this here flu, to wake up at a not so late 830 and feel just fine for getting out of my plushly cozy warm bed. Larchmont producing called and the apricots tasted superb, as well as the strawberries, white peaches, and blackbean chipotle hummus... Someone even surprised me this morning, with a simple little gift that my favorite vendor at farmers market brought back for me on his trip to Egypt. I haven't witnessed a selfless act of kindness in far too long. Noah's luckily wasn't out of my favorite bagel, chocolate chip with blueberry cream cheese! So here's a song for all yee lovelies just opening your eyes and indecisive on whether to get up or not, all you half asleepers....

I love love love this song, its so whimsical, airy, womanly, floatacious.

Oh No No

Radiohead will always be my number one.

Don't infect me with your poison"

I'll Take You Higher


There's something so organic about being in the middle of the desert and falling in love with the starry night's sky. Blustery winds graised my cheeks, and a glass of wine later I was floating... In and out of happiness, pondering the world that lay before me, living in this moment, and the future that has yet to come. Being a woman of my word is something I strive in fulfilling, and when I make plans to go on miscellaneous adventures, whether it be a weekend to a depressely named "Death Valley" or to the serenely lovely Yosemite, I will make it a point to be there. After years and years, well, only 2 years of saying I'm road tripping up the 101, I have requested a plethora of days to complete our summer mission, Microbrewery detours in mind.

This song makes me want to break out my new 10'0 and go night surfing, with a full moon in hand. I need to get back in touch with the Pacific, for it's been way too long. The rush of paddling hard for a wave, dropping into the face, and veering right... How I love Rights. We shall meet again very soon.

Here's some trippy, classify it as "cosmic" magic to put you in an illustrious state.
