Thank you, thank you. It is one of the travesties of the modern world that I am unable to put "damn good mix-maker" on my resume, with a list of the esp good ones I"ve made. Bc I would. I feel Ira would appreciate my talent in this area. Maybe that's my in with him. ::plots::

I'm so glad you like it!

"la strada" was my missing-the-boys song over the summer - I really listened to the lyrics for the first time while I was making mixes for them and put it on both of their cds; in mid-March I wasn't even thinking so much about the reality of leaving you (since that didn't really even set in until, what, three days ago or so...), but now. yeah. Maybe I'll send you all the lyrics sometime; it's even better than just the chorus. Angstyhopefulbittersweetweepy better, that is.

the juxtaposition of

::waves a mix provocatively::

at the end of that comment and

i'm a hobbit on the subject line of the next, lead to the following sentence in my mind:

::waves a hobbit provocatively::

it took me a few seconds and some odd images in my head before i sorted it all out...

ahahaha!!

I can do that too.

That is indeed a kick-ass mix.

maybe if you were applying to be a dj or something...

and it's a crying shame that they've already done a TAL about the mix tape.
