morning ride 3



'female of the species' - space

'california soul'- marlena shaw (diplo remix)

'ride'- bitch ass darius

'to sir with love'- lulu

'everlasting love'- smokey robinson


also, may i highly recommend 'a bureaucratic desire for revenge (part 2)' by earth, when you're doing crunches at the gym. really gives you that extra pussssh.

bientôt l'hiver sera ici

biking back from the library, trying to immerse myself in the tardiest season of them all i listened to this: http://radiohour.org.
i got to the point where townes starts crooning (from johnny's birthday show) about waitin' round to die, and somehow it was fitting for the long stretch of van buren i was biking. the post rain air outside was indescribable, but i will do my best,
wet oil, mixed slightly with moist sewage, topped off with your standard grass and sweat aromas. the sky was aching blue and some of the rain clouds were serendipitously looming about... waitin' round to rain.

ninety degrees 'neath the trees where it's shady

my recent trip to LA gave me some new memories, but i was also rife with nostalgia for the days when i lived and bummed around huntington beach,ca in 2000. poking around on the internet the other day, i found a soul mix made by one of the dj's that would play on 'good foot' night at the bar que sera in long beach. some of my best memories of dancing, sweating, and swaying happened on those nights that summer in cali.

another thing that has caught my eye as of late:

lifted from my bros blog, i found it leaving me wanting more. what happens next?! several times i thought about fast forwarding it ---'just hurry up already', but i waited, i was patient. it made me think about the frenetic pace i keep, and the anxiousness i inevitably have (hence the name of this blog) speeding up-- rushing. if i stop and enjoy the here and now, the end is always that much more fulfilling. don't you think?
c'était un rendez-vous
