the holidays are over. working two jobs - one being in a restaurant and the other in retail - downtown in the midst of the christmas "i'll beat you with a stick if you don't bring me my food right now" or "what in the hell do you mean you're sold out of digital picture frames?" madness, can be quite frustrating. it seemed as if the end of december would never come. tomorrow, i finally have an actual day off. i made this mix to play while i'm driving around tomorrow, running errands and such. i decided to work on having a wide range of songs and mood as to give myself a musical journey of sorts. something i can escape into for a little over an hour to make my much-needed day off that much better. so... after a little rambling - and a few weeks of no mixtaping... here we go.

Ripping. I'm going to listen to Pet Sounds for reals soon, I've decided. And the segue to "Think about Your Troubles" is brilliant.
