In a city known for it's eternal sunshine, I have proof of a seasonal change. Today, as I meandered the streets to get lunch, I discovered a treasure trove near the park. By my local fire station (aka my polling place. And no, I didn't vote today. I vote absentee.) were TONS of fall leaves, with different colors and whatnot. It isn't too often you see these in L.A. so while this is not much to many of you, it's always a treat for me. Here's some more evidence:
Mundane? Maybe a little, but it's the little things that keep us sane some days.
In other news, my music listening has been set on random something major lately. For an example, here's the playlist that has been running as I cleaned my room, folded laundry and blogged tonight (click for the readable view):
What has this got to do with anything? Not a thing. It's just helps pad out the post and gives everyone further proof of how oddly my brain is wired.
I'm now off to listen to the Kate Bush album. 12 years in the waiting...no pressure, right? Night kids!

ever listen to Rufus Wainwright? I've been reading your blog for a while now, and he seems like something you would like.
good for you with those fall colors - i live in Connecticut, so I'm sick to death of them! ha ha
Love your blog!

The leaves are beautiful, but I am up to my eyes in them right now. My roommates and I just raked 17 bags full (Large bags) from our front yard alone. I don't even want to go to the backyard.
J, that is a random list, a good one, but random. I am so excited though that you have Bob Marley's "Redemption Song" on there. That is one of my ALL TIME FAVORITES.
Word verification today:
nknpnk... WTF?
I love autumn-the turning leaves are like nature's fireworks(I know that sounds twee but hey,sometimes cliches are the only way to go).
U - I love Rufus, although I didn't connect with the Want discs as much as I should have. Soon I will reinvest.
Redemption Song is such a brilliant piece, Chip. I love the Johnny Cash outtake of it as well.
T, Armi - Autumn is too weird. It never comes so I don't know what to do!
