this year i've decided to make some new years resolutions that i plan to stick to. i'm 25 now, and i really need to sort some things out before it's too late.
1. learn to drive
2. finally organize room, and keep in order weekly
3. take a class, possibly sewing lessons
4. start seeing a counselor
5. join gym, work out, get active
6. drink less beer
7. wash hair more frequently, keep body in order
8. learn to cook a new meal every 2 or 3 weeks
9. make at least 1 acquaintance a good friend
10. be more patient

poppers + xmas music

craft night last night spawned 3 beautiful handmade felt cd cases. my master plan to make a dozen or so and give them out with my holiday mix as gifts. the one with the red flap took me half an hour or so to make, but i imagine once i get the hang of it, the process will be faster and easier. here's a little taste of the my holiday mix so far:

The Walkmen - Christmas Party (featuring Nicole Sheahan)
John Lennon - happy xmas (war is over)
Belle & Sebastian - Christmas Time Is Here
Wild Billy Childish & The Musicians of the British Empire - Santa Claus
Alvin & the Chipmonks - Christmas don't be late
Otis Redding - Merry Christmas Baby

The Raveonettes - The Christmas Song
the kinks -     father christmas
The Waitresses  - Christmas Wrapping 

Tiny Tim - Santa has got the AIDS this year

etc
