I am publishing this, then driving to Portland. This is normally a 5-6 hour drive, but being the biggest travel day of the year, it will be double that. Thank God for other people’s podcasts.

*Update 12:00 - Ok, somehow, the drive only took 6 hours. How? I’ve seriously done that drive, like, 10 times, on Thanksgiving Eve, and it’s been Hell on Earth, all the way through Washington. Did they fix Seattle? Or is unemployment so high that enough people had the freedom to do their traveling before today, leaving the roads unclogged for me?

Hope you enjoyed the Halloween episodes! They were a bit more fun to make than the usual weekly episodes, though also a bit more work. I think I doubled my lifetime whispering by doing the “voices”for those.

Our two-year-old, Sydney, helped me do this one.

 I encountered a problem while recording this week’s show–there seemed to be voices leaking into the recording. It’s strange, because we don’t live anywhere near radio towers, which is usually the cause of that kind of interference. What’s also disconcerting, is that I’m not sure if I was hearing the voices coming from my headphones, or from somewhere else in the room.

I’m OK with recording equipment, but definitely not an expert. I’m going to look over my setup again, and make sure nothing’s changed since last time I did my show. Anyhow, I hope the interference isn’t too distracting to listen to!

Just saw Where the Wild Things Are today. I think I’ll have to see it again. Not because I loved it that much (though I did enjoy it), but because I think I might enjoy it more a second time. It dawned on me a couple hours later that it’s almost more a dream than a story, and that I should watch it that way.

Did you see it? What did you think?

 Here it is, the second of three hours recapping music released during this show’s six month hiatus. (Ed: After recording this podcast and claiming there were only three months left to do Christmas shopping, I consulted with experts in the field of timekeeping, and was informed that the amount of time remaining is more like four months. That kind of thing isn’t my strong suit.)

I took close to six months off of doing my podcast. Since then, SO MUCH good music has come out, that before I can do a show comprised of new music, I have to catch up on that period of time. This is the first of three shows recapping from February until now.

If this show is pretty much your only new music source, you’re in for a BIG treat, this is the best of the best. If you twitter the e-blogs, you’ll know most of this, it’ll be like the Greatest Hits of 2009 (thus far). Word!
