friday amazon ten – “internet famous” edition
Not an awful week overall. The man hasn’t beaten me this week (though one woman a couple of states away has managed to make herself a pain in my ass). Stuff’s not bothering me so much – perhaps it’s good feelings left over from Ravencon (which you can hear more about at this week’s Pros and Cons podcast, which features a couple of mentions of me – thanks for the kind words, guys!), perhaps it’s the fact that my work schedule’s been adjusted a bit so I don’t have to drive quite so much, which allowed me to find a bit of an outlet by taking part in Guitar Ensemble v2.0.
Whatever it is, I’ll take it.
I’m sitting here this evening, typing this piece while I work to resurrect and rebuild the desktop computer, whose hard drive crapped the bed earlier this week, hence the “amazon” top ten, since my amazon MP3 library is pretty much what I got at the moment, until I install a few more things. Not a bad mix, though, really.
enjoy your weekend, everyone!

- “That’s What Friends Are For” – Frances England

thanks again for the list! I’ve not heard The Lumineers before, I’m keeping this one. You can keep the Mandy Moore. It amuses me that I found one of the songs on “Disney Princes Something Something”.
April 16th, 2013 at 10:44 AMthe Mandy Moore came in from when I bought the “Tangled” soundtrack CD for the little one (#2 is a track off the “Brave” OST) – Amazon has this thing where certain CDs you buy will automatically show up as MP3s in your Amazon cloud drive. Not all of it represents my particular tastes, although I do have the occasional pop itch I have to scratch.
The Lumineers are pretty good – first heard ’em on WNRN from your old neck of the woods – what my teenager calls “Dad’s Hipster Radio Station”.
