( More Photobooth fun! )
In real life news, Bryan's in Hot Springs. It's driving him bananas, since he'd much rather be home. I was texting him stuff that Ganon was doing, and he texted back "You're killing me! I want out of here so bad!" He'll be home this afternoon.
At some point I gotta go into town. Bath & Body Works is having their huge, semi-annual sale. That's the only time my favorite scents come back, because most of them are "retired". Specifically, I'm hoping for some Cool Citrus Basil, White Tea & Ginger, and Lemongrass Sage. If I came across some Cinnamon Pumpkin I might stock it away for autumn.
As evidenced in a photo above, Big Whiskey & the Groogrux King came in yesterday! I'm listening to it [and the LiveTrax from Alpine that came with it. This Seek Up from Alpine is pretty choice.] Anyway, off BWGGK, I think my favorite song has to be Shake Me Like a Monkey. It's so heavy on the horns: Rashawn & Jeff really get to show off in that one. Baby Blue is sadder than sad. It makes me cry; it's so melancholy. It's that strange sad: the sad where you've accepted something and aren't fighting it anymore, but you're still shattered that now this is how it has to be. Resigned sadness, tinged with the beginnings of something else, something brighter. The ability to be happy when you think about the memories of the lost one. It's heartbreaking. So hard to listen to. Everyone else loves Alligator Pie, and I love that he wrote his daughter Stella into the song, but it isn't my favorite. Squirm really gives Shake Me Like a Monkey a run for its money. When I'm in a dark mood, Squirm will be my favorite. When I'm in a bright, happy mood, it'll be SMLAM.
Also, Dave has a thing for monkeys. This only makes him cooler in my eyes.
So now I'm making myself a naan pizza for lunch & doing housework that's been neglected while I played nurse for 3 days. ^o^
