Carnivorous by design, beware this hungry heart of mine.
6. "Carnivore," Giselle, 2013.
After a handful of warm days managed to fool many of us into thinking spring was here, the cold was back. For days, it was rainy and frigid and dreary. I could do without near-freezing temperatures, but there's something about those dull, bitter days that I love. There's something about it that takes me back to ( Read more... ) -

5. "Tongues (RAC Remix)," Joywave, featuring KOPPS, 2014.
We had more ice and snow through February. March was changeable. The day I picked Amanté up from the airport in Durham was cold, windy, rainy. I drove two hours in it with minimal concern.

My practice pie, which I have redubbed Milky Way caramel apple pie, was a success. I know, because I tried a small sliver of it before breakfast today. I'm guessing it's even better when you're not spooning fat and sugar into your face at 8 A.M ( Read more... ) -

Just curious, does anyone know what the time frame on user ratings is? I noticed I jumped 50 places overnight and there's no way it's because a lot of people were interested in my thoughts on Mockingjay. I did have a lot of activity about two weeks ago, though.
