This is Everything

“Thanks for Asking” by The Stationary Set

I’m having one of those problems where I have to listen to this song on repeat.  Maybe “problems” isn’t the right word.  Cause, um, I’m thoroughly enjoying this choice.  I just wish I had better speakers in here.

I no longer require your presence to feel at home.

Where was this track in 2005 when I needed it hard?

I forgot I really like Piebald.

“Thanks for Asking” by The Stationary Set

You guys.

I’m absolutely freaking out about this album.

It’s destroying me.  I am utterly and totally destroyed by it.  

You should own it.  You should let it crawl into that teeeeeny space between your middle-two ribs and let it live there and wreak absolute havoc on your heart.

They are my favorite band.  This is the best thing they have ever done.

“Better Son or Daughter” by Rilo Kiley

My absolute anthem whenever things are not going as they should.

I haven’t listened to it in forever. Which is a good sign about my life.

But I hadn’t realized how much I missed it.

That swell 2/3 of the way through can change your life, man.

But you’ll fight and you’ll make it through

You’ll fake it if you have to

And you’ll show up for work with a smile
