59.

artist:the decemberists
album:castaways and cutouts

i keep saying that i don't like the decemberists. i said it so much that i definitely believed it. i have been in a rather crappy mood today, so i figured it was another day for something mellow-ish to listen to as i drove around in my car.

i pulled castaways and cutouts off of my CD shelf and figured why the hell not, right? the purpose of this whole project is to go through a good bit of the stuff on my shelf, so I'm going to have to get to this album eventually.

as i was heading out to get on the highway, i saw my friend in front of her house, so i pulled over to talk to her, and of course i left the car running. when i got back in, to my own surprise, i started the CD over. i tried to justify it to myself, saying "oh, for the integrity of the project i need to actually LISTEN to the album, not just let it play in my car while I'm out of it."

but i was singing along. and i knew the words. and i wasn't doing it "for the integrity of the project."

so now my whole life is a lie!

i am going to have to listen to all of the decemberists albums that i have ignored now and decide if i really don't like them and this was just a glitch in the matrix, or if i do like them.

thanks, 365 project. way to go, me.
