stuff i listened to a lot this week
Tuesday, August 19, 2008
I picked this up over at Molly's place and thought oooh fascinating. Maybe it's 'cause I'm just off a really good lunch and food is big on my mind right now....
About 55% of 'em down though, I'm pretty happy with that! Living in NY is good for that kind of thing, I guess. Sadly I'm at a bit of a disadvantage since plowing down any of the shellfish on there would probably put me in the hospital. I guess that means I just have to try to make up for it with the rest of the stuff!
So how about you?
