I hope that the fact that the Twilight movies are continuing doesn't curse the 10s. Seriously, the aughts have sucked. Perhaps it seems like that in part because these are the years in which we have really grown up? What's the more depressing explanation? "It only seems like it's getting worse, but really I'm just paying better attention" or "PEOPLE ARE ACTUALLY GETTING SUCKIER."

In either case, it has so often felt like the world is spiraling into ruin the past decade. Ha! Ha! I shouldn't do any kind of write up on the end of the decade, I'm a downer. So moving on to ...

HURRAY MUSIC! I love when you do music posts. There are two reasons for this.

(1) You apparently are WAY BETTER at seeking out new music than I am, so whenever I'm at a loss for new bands, or whenever I've listened to the same Indelicates song for the 20th time in a row in a single day and can't take a 21st time, I can go to your LJ! Or to you! And find new music.

(2) I tend to read your music posts at work! Which means that my feeble iTunes-at-work collection gets bolstered a bit. I think that 90% of the songs I've downloaded and added to my library here are from you and ghost_lingering, because all I have is random stuff people send me or post on my flist.

So, thanks! Downloading now, wheeee ...
