This lapse was caused by a move from Spain back to the homeland, and subsequently starting suckfest*.
This resumption of blogging is thanks to yet another move, this time: France.
I saw a movie or two this summer. Heard a little music. Some were new, some were just new to me.
I also dabbled in manufacturing my own kitsch stuff. So hipster.
Movies of note
The Dark Knight Rises 2308402398402830 rock-your-face-offs.
That's all.
Safety Not Guaranteed 485944932 obscure kids' treats
I bought in. It was a fun movie. Cute and quirky. The soundtrack fits it almost scarily well--read Garden State. And similarly to Garden State, its indie-ness is thickly palatable, nay campy? I think it's something to watch if you're a little bummed out, or if it's dreary outside.
Music. I'm just going to make a list here.
BOY - "Little Numbers" EP. You can check out their debut video on YouTube.
Fiona Apple's The Idler Wheel... (just don't bother with the title)
The XX's Coexist. Thanks NPR.
Nerve City. "Sleepwalker" EP.
The Fresh & Onlys have released some new stuff!
Dark Dark Dark. I have the EP "Bright Bright Bright". Although a theme carried to far makes me cringe, it's great stuff.
"Projects"?
Updated my sad, fake boat shoes with a permanent marker and some masking tape to make at least a more fun version of them.
I used an old frame, a piece of a tree branch, some cork board, wire, and fabric to make a little wall decoration with a place to post pictures, notes, etc.
*suckfest may be used to describe my experience serving tables at a well-known national chain which shall remain nameless.
