Guilt infested post

How long has it been? I have been shameless with the updating of this blog. Even now, I'm at a loss as to what to write. I'm going to have a clear (but not so clear, I mean come on it's me.) agenda

Music updates: 

1. Have you heard Devendra Banhart? Love love love. I had heard about him years ago when he was seeing one of the insufferably annoying actresses of my generation, Natalie Portman. I don't care if she's the reason The Shins made it as big as they did, I've never seen someone so annoying as her on screen. Okay but to get back to the point, I decided to listen to him a couple of days ago and it's safe to say I've fallen in love with his broody, melancholic but ultimately floaty charm. He's a little Nick Drake-ish. Now if only he could do something about his unfortunate name. Hippie parents I tell you. Who am I kidding though, I've always wanted to be a hippie.

2. The Shins came out with a new album I've yet to listen to but love anyway in theory. 

3. Marissa Nadler and I are still going strong.

4. I have started listening to Bjork. Yep, finally! I had an entire semester dedicated to her and her Homogenic album. Just gorgeous. 

Poetry updates:

1. I have a new stone being published in a book very soon as part of an anthology. Verrrry excited :)

2. And the poetry continues along with a change in my blog name which I've already explained on my blog.

Life and otherwise:

1. I think I'll collapse if I try this. Let's just say it's been eventful.

I will try and be more regular
