dododo mix

yeah my class was canceled this morning and i was bored so a mix resulted....havent done one in a while, so it is not one of my best, but i like it :)

I had a lovely thanksgiving with all of my brother-in-laws sister's s) transgender friends. I love my trans friends they are some of the bravest, strongest, and coolest people i know...the whole L word moira/max thing really pissed me off with how made him a total ass.

highlight of my trip- when my brother-in-law told my niece "remember aunt d's partner- shes still pretending to be a boy" yeah, that pissed me off way to prep an 8 year old to be bigoted, Ass. at least my niece was awesome with everything and my sister got pissed at him. he has very strict gender role expectations, he gave me a bunch of crap when i cut all my hair off and his always refusing to play "girl" games with my niece...at least he is in the minority in his and my family (and my nephew loves doing hair and shoes :)) his parents are awesome hippies who love to give him crap about his conservatism.

soo the mix. I have a thing for repeated sounds such as, do do do, da da, ba ba ba, tra la la, hence i figured i'd make a mix of some of my favorites: (on megaupload...i miss the old yousendit 'cause i still dont want to bother with the 5 minutes it would take to libsyn)

1. Tom's Diner - susanne vega
2. Da Da Da- TRio (remember that commercial?)
3. Breaking up the Girl- Garbage
4. Sound of Settling- Death Cab
5. Mrs. Robinson- Simon and Garfunkel
6. Do Over- Get Set Go
7. Secretly Jealous of Kurt Cobain- Coyote Shivers & his Grunge Ex
8. The Tra La La Song- Liz Phair (from my Lizelanious folder)
9. Pin - Yeah Yeah Yeahs
10. Yeah!- The Golden Dogs
11. Black Horse and a Cherry Tree- KT Tunstall
12. They- Jem (this used to be a alarm clock song- my old roommate cant stand it anymore)
13. Buddy Holly- Weezer (when i was a kid i thought it was "and your married to tyler moore")
14. Ode to My Family- The Cranberries (just couldn't leave the yodelers out...)

my ear hurts just thought i'd mention it, as it always gets infected right before long ass trips.

in other news it is Thanksgiving, one of my most favorite holidays.

I have not been home for thanksgiving in 4 years and wont be again this year, I am going to my brother-in-laws hippies family thanksgiving in upstate new york.

this is a farm that is powered by windmill and heated by logs, i really am excited i went there the winter i lived in a rehab house in Syracuse with no heat or working bathroom....i loved working for habitat for humanity (for real, building houses was the best thing i ever did)

ELection DaY!

OHio was awesome, I never knew Columbus was sooo gay (but then kelka is from ohio so i should have guesses) and i really think the districts i was in will turn out for the good guys :)

today i wake up at 7 to head to one campaign office...then switch to VA in the afternoon with another group

then party 1, then "official" party, then real party to celebrate or drown our sorrows either way i love being in college and DC for elections (i should just give up all ready and admit i'll end up in politics)


VOTE and then i wish y'all a happily drunk election night!

Shifty eyes

I dont know if any of y'all are paying attention to the whole Ted Haggard gay sex scandal that has come up in the past few days. I am suspicious of the whole situation. Sure it would be fantastically funny if the head of the Evangelical push for the bans on marriage was paying a man for sex on a regular basis, but i dont trust the timing. In a way this could all backfire and end up revitalizing the christian republicans to vote against the great gay threat....which the GOP had been worried about as they have been freaking out about republican voter turn out looking to be horrible.

So a gay sex scandal within the christian ranks so close to the election seems a little fishy to me...hmmmm (but this might be giving the christian republicans too much credit)

I am off to campaign in Ohio this weekend.

VOTE

oh and Hilary or Obama?
