I’ve done it.

By christa 9 September, 2007 Lists, song of the day

I’ve finally done it. I just created what is quite possibly the greatest CD mix to ever walk this earth. I was making it for someone and I realized, of all the mixed tapes/CDs I’ve made over the years, this is my favorite.

6 of the 15 tracks have previously been featured as s.o.t.d. Hopefully you’ve been downloading them. they are locked back up in the disney vault, never to be released again. The other tracks are future s.o.t.d., so watch for them! then you can create this awesome CD and listen to it as you browse loafe. the loafe soundtrack, titled Out of My League.

Okay, so here is the playlist. To get the full effect, make sure to keep them in this exact order:
1. Grief-Fading Collection
2. California Stars-Billy Bragg & Wilco
3. Drinking in L.A.-Bran Van 3000
4. Hang Me Up to Dry-Cold War Kids (former s.o.t.d.)
5. True Affection-The Blow
6. Cherry Blossom Girl-AIR
7. ne me quitte pas-regina spektor (former s.o.t.d.)
8. I’ve Seen It All-Bjork & Thom Yorke (former s.o.t.d.)
9. Budapest-Poni Hoax
10. Lovely Head -Goldfrapp
11. L-L-Love-Astaire
12. Bittersweet Faith (Thievery Corporation Remix)-Bitter:Sweet
13. Country Mile-Camera Obscura (former s.o.t.d.)
14. Crown Of Love-Arcade Fire (former s.o.t.d.)
15. She’s So-Röyksopp (former s.o.t.d.)

track 9 is today’s song of the day and it is sexy beyond sexy. I can’t even tell you.

finding the divine

By christa 6 September, 2007 thursday divinity

My friend Marianne is very spiritual. It’s one of the things I love most about her. I have shit for spirituality, but her presence in my life helps balance the cosmic scale a bit.

She is starting a new feature on her site called Thursday Divinity. I love it, I think it’s a great idea. Already I feel lighter. I like that it’s on Thursday, too. Thursdays have always been one of my favorite days. also, I like dimes the most of all the american coins. Thursdays and dimes. Hey, that’s a good band name, but there is already a thursday band out there, I think. taking back thursday. no that’s sunday, isn’t it? maybe it is thursday. I don’t know. I could just look it up, but that would take like 10 seconds.

hmmm. I want a new feature on my site, too, something a slightly bit more interesting than my normal me-me-me yapping. I had song of the day going there for awhile, but I ran out of music.

I could have Loafe Drawings.

or Monday Surveys.

ummm, Body Part Saturdays.

what am I talking about. I can’t sustain anything for any period of time. I give up.

although I’ve had loafe for almost 8 years now. I’ve been typing away at this damn computer for half my life! okay, a third. SIGH. 1/4.

CUT ME SOME SLACK PEOPLE.

loafe will be my cockroach, always living, never dying.
