little surprise for me

YBW brought in the mail the other day and stood at the kitchen island opening it.
A moment later, he handed me this:

Yes, I squealed!
Yes, I clapped like a little girl!
Yes, I jumped up and down while I did it!

What a sweet surprise!
And I was surprised!
I asked him if he wanted to go with me to see them and he declined. He texted me from his office the day they went on sale asking if I wanted him to buy tickets, I declined. I didn’t want to drag him to see a band he’s only mildly interested in.
Turns out he had other plans.

I’ve adored Vampire Weekend since their debut album in 2008!
They remain in constant rotation in my music.
I’m so excited!

What a thoughtful gift from my husband.
He knows what I love and he wants me to be able to have as much of it as I can.
His kindness never ceases to amaze me.
I’m so grateful. Not just for this lovely gift, but for him simply being himself.

What a wonderful way to end the Summer!

a tune for Tuesday vol 31

Brendan Benson is a particular favorite of mine.
I adore his solo work.
But put him together with Patrick Keeler, Jack Lawrence, and Jack White and you have The Raconteurs.
This is Help Me Stranger from their new album.

Please listen responsibly.

a tune for Tuesday vol 30

Thing 1 and I were coming home from the grocery store Sunday afternoon and this song came on Alt Nation as a critical cut.
At first we liked the music, and then Jonathan Visger’s voice.
The lyrics are bittersweet, but that only made me like it more.
Here’s Absofacto with Dissolve
