it's alive ... just barely

hey everyone. my computer has been in the hospital so i haven't been able to post. i will see carlos today and hope that he was able to fix it. he probably had to clear her out. again. vicious, whatever happened to that thing. if anyone can fix it, it's carlos.
so, i have a confession to make. some of you may recall my radiohead nip/tuck comparison of trying to catch up with a quickly moving train. we finally had record night at my house (only to be rudely interrupted by my pain in the ass neighbor ... that's another entry) and i purchased radiohead's sophmore effort, the bends. mainly because it has three of the only radiohead songs i know on it, 'fake plastic trees' 'my iron lung' and 'high and dry.' this record is now the only thing i listen to. day and night, night and day it's all radiohead all the time. i've also purchased ok computer but it hasn't stuck like the bends. i'm a tad embarrassed to only be getting this now. i mean, it's been like 15 years they've been making music and i'm just getting it? wow. i think mainly i was against it because they were the little darlings of just about everyone. radiohead could do no wrong. after a few listens to ok computer and not really feeling it's vibe, i realize that perhaps the bends represents a time in music that i just loved. that i long for. i loved that nineties rock - i was so in to music at that time that it sort of feels like a warm fuzzy blanket. well, thank you radiohead. i love the bends and i'm ok with it.
i have to go to work now. i hope everyone is well and we'll talk soon.
peace.

  1. I agree.. there's nothing more warm and fuzzy than 90's alt rock... I still jam to veruca salt now and then :)
