c'mon, God'll never find us in here...
i detest the menial things in life.
chores and maintinence. things like laundry, clipping fingernails, feeding Bone Jovi, cooking delicious trukey dinners, etc. etc. etc.
the 'everyday' tasks bother me.
especially getting showers.
it's boring.
in an effort to alleviate the drudgery i've started listening to music while i shower, courtesy of my ghettoblaster (that i've had since i was seven), which is strategically placed on the back of Le Toilet right next to the shower.
for the first week and a half i listened to Def Leppard's 'Hysteria' album (which i also got when i was seven). i immediately found showering more enjoyable but quickly tired of the sickeningly overpolished vocal harmonies. so for the next week i relied on the twitchy pop genius of Elvis Costello (via 'Armed Forces').
it worked like gangbusters.
(better than Suicidal Tendencies, which only lasted a day or two.)
i look forward to showering now, and i think i'm actually getting cleaner because of my need to scrub rythmically with the music.
so i decided to make a special 'Shower Mix.'
(while making it i realized i haven't made a mixtape for myself since highschool. i've made dozens and dozens of tapes for other people, but none for me personally. so believe me when i say that this little bugger is a Rock and Roll Grizzly Bear of a tape.)
scrub wit me.

do you have travel scrabble???
i can't find it, and the last time i played it was on the train i think.
i do.
but you can't have it.
i have tournaments with old dudes in the park every Sunday.
you really have it?
that is so awesome.
i thought i lost it.
i must have it back!
Explosivo. Nice.
On an album that's not afraid to do double-shots, I would have thought you'd follow that one up with some more D. Guess not, though.
Burdocks have a new album.. it's tight.
oh i know.
i heard some of that new shit live.
tight indeed.
The album is tight...unlike mikes mom...
