I’ve accumulated a lot of CDs over the years. A rather large portion of them have been in the basement for some time, either because I didn’t listen to them anymore or just didn’t want them cluttering up the apartment. But neither of those reasons mean I don’t like them (although some I might consider [...]
This is a mixtape I made sometime last year. It’s rather (er, very) silly but it was fun to make. I’d all forgotten about it but was reminded when I realized that my oldest niece is already a young teenager. Not that she’s a brat! Well maybe sometimes…

It’s a rather mellow yet experimental and perhaps, at times, a bit depressing blend of songs… you get the picture. Basically a little something for everyone depending on your [...]

I think this is a really cute idea. In the past I’ve considered giving out anonymous postcards and letters to strangers as a surprise but this is even better. Too bad I’m paranoid about getting caught. Don’t want some grumpy old man wondering why you have your fingers down his mail slot. OK, that just [...]
