Musicless
I am spoiled, and I am the first to admit it. Why, you ask? Well, among many other reasons, I have two identical black Macbooks – one personal, and one for work. Let’s be real: that is just ridiculous. More than anyone could ever ask for. But last week, my personal Macbook went kaput. It’s…
Themeless thoughts
I love beets. I really, truly love them. If I see them on a menu, I will choose beets over almost anything else. My least favorite color is blue. I don’t hate it, I would just never pick it for anything. If I were the captain of a kickball team, I would choose red first,…
And now, for some good things
I forgot to mention that I am now outfitted for Colorado. This is called the Lodge Parka, which is most appropriate for me, since I’m not really a “winter sporter” (not that I’m really a “summer sporter” either). But a lodge? That I can do. Has anyone read “Water for Elephants” by Sara Gruen? I…
Christmas casserole
This weekend, Facebook really chapped my ass (a phrase that I have recently decided is very worth using). I tried to upload pictures from the JAM House Christmas Spectacular – at which we had a fantastic time and packed our home with more people than we ever imagined – but the old ‘Book translated my…
Josh and Meg have a new duo name
Awwww, yeah! How’s about that – Troubled Annie, for the wind! Listen to some of their new stuff here. “Be Mine” is so catchy, it’s practically SARS.
Track 7: “By the Time”
I have to say, it’s scary to take little pieces of my heart and toss them out into the big bad world. But you have been a most gracious audience! Thank you so much for listening to my songs this week – and thanks a million for buying the AP EP. Your support is helping…
Track 6: “First You Cry”
I am blogging through the weekend, because I started this thing, and I am not a quitter – except for when it comes to dieting. And Type From Home. “First You Cry” This world is totally screwed up. It’s a place where men leave their wives, where husbands and fathers have to be taken off…
Track 5: “Starting Today”
It’s Friday (happy Friday, by the way – congratulations on making it through another week). Typically, I do not blog on the weekends – but we still have two more tracks to go. So be sure to check in tomorrow and Sunday for the inside scoop on the final tracks! “Starting Today” In the fall…
Track 4: “Wish That I Was”
And… we have arrived at the title track. “Wish That I Was” Sometimes, we write what we have experienced. Sometimes, we write what we have observed. And sometimes, there is no difference. This was the first song that we recorded, way back in February, and I feel like it acted as a sonic compass for…
Track 3: “Could’ve Sworn It Was You”
“Could’ve Sworn It Was You” This was the very last song that we recorded – we finished it just about a month ago. And when I listen to the project as a whole, I think that this song is my favorite; Josh’s got it pretty perfect. Probably because I told him that I wanted it…
