The Pixies for the Car
Last night I burnt a CD full of songs by The Pixies to put in my car. Excited about this. Personally quite excited to have a car in which I can play CDs. Sure it would be cool to have an iPod or some other MP3 player to have a whole variety of music to listen to, but I don’t, and honestly CDs are kind of fun. But The Pixies! Fuck, just excited to have them in the car.
I’ll be honest and admit that I was introduced to The Pixies (as well as a number of other great bands) quite late, some time after they had already gone through their original popularity. But that is okay, the important thing is that I now know them and love listening to them. The Pixies may be one of those special bands that I can pretty much just listen to whenever. Truth be told they used to be the music I listened to when I napped in college (and I was a napping fiend in college — god I miss that). Not sure why I like them so much, just do, and now I can listen to them in my car.
Ah-ha! It is going to be awesome day today. And I have to go visit the location of our upcoming in-service day today, which means more driving, which therefore means more Pixies music . . . and also mileage reimbursement, which is sweet.
