Have A Nice Trip?

With just about one month left in fall i am deep in my "Fall" playlist.  There is nothing like vegan grocery shopping while The Smiths are playing in your earphones..."I am human and I need to be loved". How about raking leaves as Geoff from Thursday sings about how the leaves "are giving up on us".  Or even trying to hold back the tears while Tom Waits sing how "what I miss you wouldn't believe... shoveling snow and raking leaves" in Day After Tomorrow while hours later you still find yourself raking the never ending pile of leaves.  Is it the beauty of the song that brings the tears or the fact that it is pitch black, approaching freezing, and i am still raking.  They will be icicles soon.

As i have done before, i will share a playlist.  This time under the topic of Fall.

Why is this fall playlist so 90's and british heavy? Well, reader, both the Seattle-centric alternative era and the isle of the British Empire seem to be caught in a fall-like condition for most of the year.

There you have it.  Do not fret, a month from this weekend the days will be getting longer.
