Friday Mix Vol. 2 - 1/29/2010
I think I’m going to stick with making mixes for Fridays, on top of any mixes I decide to post. This has some stuff that is a couple years old but I still love the songs just as much as I did then.

On a new tumblr, mostly because I’m trying to remain drama free, but there are other reasons as well. You won’t really know it is me unless I tell you. If you want to follow me or me to follow you, send me an e-mail or shoot me an IM. joshanastasia@gmail.com / sn: joshanastasia

One of my good friends from childhood is coming back home for a visit with her baby! I haven’t seen him since I was born and she has decided that I am little Mikey’s uncle because her and I grew up in our diapers together. But really…why don’t I get lasagna? It is my favorite….

“On January 11th, a remarkable legal case opens in a San Francisco courtroom—on its way, it seems almost certain, to the Supreme Court. Perry v. Schwarzenegger challenges the constitutionality of Proposition 8, the California referendum that, in November, 2008, overturned a state Supreme Court decision allowing same-sex couples to marry. Its lead lawyers are unlikely allies: Theodore B. Olson, the former solicitor general under President George W. Bush, and a prominent conservative; and David Boies, the Democratic trial lawyer who was his opposing counsel in Bush v. Gore. The two are mounting an ambitious case that pointedly circumvents the incremental, narrowly crafted legal gambits and the careful state-by-state strategy that leading gay-rights organizations have championed in the fight for marriage equality. The Olson-Boies team hopes for a ruling that will transform the legal and social landscape nationwide, something on the order of Brown v. Board of Education, in 1954, or Loving v. Virginia, the landmark 1967 Supreme Court ruling that invalidated laws prohibiting interracial marriage.” Gay marriage, Perry v. Schwarzenegger, and the Supreme Court : The New Yorker The fight against Prop 8 wages on.

Backwards Walk by Frightened Rabbit
i’m working on my backwards walk
walking with no shoes or socks
and the time rewinds to the end of may
i wish we’d never met then met today
i’m working on my faults and cracks
filling in the blanks and gaps
and when i write them out they don’t make sense
i need you to pencil in the rest
i’m working on drawing a straight line
and i’ll draw until i get one right
it’s bold and dark girl, can’t you see
i done drawn a line between you and me
i’m working on erasing you
just don’t have the proper tools
i get hammered, forget that you exist
there’s no way i’m forgetting this
i’m working hard on walking out
shoes keep sticking to the ground
my clothes won’t let me close the door
these trousers seem to love your floor
i been working on my backwards walk
there’s nowhere else for me to go
except back to you just one last time
say yes before i change my mind
say yes before i…
you’re the shit and i’m knee-deep in it

Only because you’re one of my good friends, yes. Also, I never thanked you for not puking on me when we were in LA.

Winter Mixtape
For me, Winter doesn’t really start until January. December is a blur, filled with shopping and seasonal depression. January hits, I begin to slow down and take in the surroundings, the snow falls with more enthusiasm and I curse the sky. The hills and fields are white snow covered canvases and I just pray that I will wake up in the morning to the rich green of spring. I know that my hoping and praying will get me nowhere, I will wake up with a fresh blanket of snow covering the ground. January is too early to wish for Spring, it is too far away still.
This is my Winter mix, something I put together earlier today.

I’ve enabled the “ask” feature on here although I’m not really sure what you would ask. However, if you feel the need…
