Why?

A song a day is cheaper than therapy. Please find my musings for 365 days in attempt to make one really good record.

Song 20

Good morning,

I hope everyone is about to enjoy their Labour Day holiday.

Today my wonderful employers are taking us down to Hatfeild Farms for a night of bone fires, bouncy rooms, gladiator combat, food, wine, and mechanical bulls.  I'm not sure, But I think this sounds promising... I hope there are some cuddly farm cats!

Song 19

Hey,

The song today is for my friends. And putting up with me when I'm a huge flake and don't go out when i tell them too. But sometimes I forget what I'm supposed to be doing.

In other news, happy birthday dad! I'm sorry your car and pool deck got broken into and trashed.

Song 18

Hey Everyone,

Here is track number 18. Happy Saturday. The city has just swelled... its intimidating outside.

Here is your song for today.

In other news... The record just got nominated for Female Artist Recording of the Year with Music Nova Scotia.  I want to thank my band especially and the players on the record who helped me create the album I wanted to... I am really honored to be included in this category with some really wonderful and creative females.  I haven't heard Norma's CD yet, but Jenns', Cocos', and Erins' are all really fantastic and if you haven't heard them you really should. In the meantime I'll check out Norma's-I'm sure its really lovely.  

In other news- I'll have a new EP out around the end of october "Pink Candy Popcorn" as well as new tshirts, some sweet merch and I have some exciting gigs to talk about soon.

Thanks for your support everyone.
XO

Song 17

Hey Friends,

here is song 17.

if i had 17 kittens my life would be messy. So this is the one time I'm glad to not match my cat number with other numbers...

anyway! this is about how when you are little you want to be big things, and then as you get older you grow out of those hopes- for the most part. I think? I've always been curious of that. I haven't gotten over mine yet, but i know my brother no longer has ambitions to be a clown police man.

Song 16

Hey Friends.

I feel a lot better now that August is over. August and I were the month that just couldn't get along. I've never had disagreements with months before. But this was something special, its comparable to the way that Uzi and Bumbalina are not budging in their cat war. 

I love Uzi like my own, but Bumbalina still wins for having the best personality.  I'm going to miss him when he is gone, and now my mind is set on getting a lovely maine coon kitten to fill the void. Or a Serval. I wonder if Bumbalina would just be so afraid of the Serval that she'd be okay. Or if the Serval would eat her.  Enough talk about cats.

Lets talk about Documentaries. 

I used to work at a movie store growing up.  I had some fantastic experiences, got to observe some interesting folks, and made (and broke) date nights for everyone with some of my movie recommendations. (okay, so maybe Requiem for a dream wasn't the best first date suggestion... Or clock work orange.)  But working there I learned to appreciate the endless supply of free popcorn, not reading my books for English Class and putting them on the television when working late, and getting into Documentaries. 

I've fallen out of love with the idea of a commitment, even as small of a commitment of sitting down and watching a movie for 2 hours is a little too much for me, the exception here is of course documentaries.  Especially ones about animals, or bands...

This song is about my friend, who if the opportunity arises, would have the best documentary about their life. I promise. Hopefully the best score too... but that is up for debate at current.

Week 2 Complete.

Hey there.

This is song number 14... I'm mildly impressed that I made it two weeks... thanks for the lovely notes everyone.

  This song is about knowing when to keep your mouth shut. Pick your battles. I think thats about it.
 
To recap lessons if you are just tuning in. Pick your battles, don't read peoples lyric books, and beware the zombie apocalypse.
