Not much to say. I just got back from my mini-vacation to Port Aransas. It was fun and had an interesting dynamic. I normally vacation by myself. it is one of the huge benefits of being a single guy. I do what I want, when I want, where I want. But this time I was with a family of extroverts and I am an most definitely an introvert. So it was fun trying to find ways to process amidst these circumstances.
For whatever reason I found that music was a big part of my processing and limited alone time. There were certain songs for various reasons that really seemed to resonate with me in different ways. So here is a list of songs that were part of the process…
*disclaimer: I know I have bad taste in music. I am fully aware that my itunes track list more closely resembles that of a middle school girl than a 20-something guy. I personally blame it on KISS fm’s limited music variety and since it is my station of choice, I am ok with the resulting “ipod of embarrassment”. With all that said, since I am aware of the embarrassment factor of the list below please keep your musical judgments to yourself, because honestly I dont care if arcade fire is musically superior to Justin Bieber, i still think arcade fire sounds like gibberish with a beat that a hobo on the street corner makes with his 10 gallon pickle tub. And no matter how hard you try and no matter what you say I will still remain the pop culture/music whore that already am…and I am okay with it. Thank you
oh yeah and they arent in any certain order
