So I’ve been making a “mixtape” about once every quarter for quite some time now.. As I consume my music, it’s a nice way for me to remember what great songs that I’ve found along the way — and, it’s kind of like a musical diary of sorts, cuz I can look at like an old mix and get all nostalgic and stuff.

The first mix for 2009 is ready a little early (it’s only February), so I must be going through a lot of music this year already…

Here it is for your listening enjoyment…

My friend Korby and I were at a house party in the mission, and the house had this map on the wall. We noticed that there was a road that led to Alaska.

A month later, after we had somehow managed to convince 2 more friends to join us, we drove to Alaska. It took a week to get up there (driving most of the time), and then a week to get back (but we took the ferry from Haines, AK to Bellingham, WA).

It was an awesome trip, and I'd definitely do it again… but probably take more time.

[So yah.. this is part of this plinky thing that I'm trying out.. the prompt was "Share the longest road trip you’ve ever taken."]

Because jumping nearsighted young things are cute.

An oldie, but goodie.

Happy friday.

[This is for you, audris.]

I heart pie charts.

Yes, I am a super nerd.
