#73 - LIST FRIDAY, Return Edition

Simple Pleasures
  • falling asleep as soon as your head hits the pillow
  • when TV shows make you cry
  • putting on socks, shoes and long pants after supper at the cabin
  • hearing a little kid say the word "hot"
  • passing a level of Super Mario World on the first try
  • staying inside playing Super Mario World and then emerging to discover that the entire world has turned green and spring-y
  • watching Amanda attempt to canoe while drunk
  • when people come visit me at work
  • looking forward to things (such as upcoming concerts and trips)
Good Songs For Spring (even though some of them are kind of sad and/or angry sounding)
  • A Kick in the Teeth by Fischerspooner
  • Streets on Fire by Lupe Fiasco
  • Sometimes Always by Jesus and Mary Chain (thanks Kenzie!)
  • Paper Planes remix by MIA feat. Bun B and Rich Boy
  • Snakes and Ladders by Basia Bulat
  • Harrisburg by Josh Ritter
  • See America Right and No Children by The Mountain Goats (John Darnielle kind of scares me, but in a good way)
  • Second Minute or Hour by Jack Penate
  • Ultimatum by The Long Winters
  • I Just Want the Girl in the Blue Dress to Keep On Dancing by Mike Doughty

I agree with ALL of your simple pleasures.
And Harrisburg is SUCH a good song.

Have you heard the new N.E.R.D. song! It's less springy and more dance-y, but awesome.
