hail to the chief!




chief brody is coming home on friday, after almost 9 weeks of waiting. we think we're all ready for him, but i'm sure that optimism can quickly turn to abject terror at having a two-month old canine in a house with two felines.

i promise this blog won't become a dog blog (although you'll want to check for periodic updates, of course), but for now, i can only seem to focus on my big (~25 lbs) little bundle of joy. for those of you wondering how we came up with the name chief brody, i have to give full credit to dj husband for that. he's a huge fan of JAWS, and has always wanted to name a dog after the reluctant hero of the movie - the distinguished and brave chief martin brody of amity.

anyway, wish us luck. we're thinking of easing the puppy's transition to his new home with a plush toy with which to snuggle in his crate. you think he'll be scared?

sleepy strange, 7.15.2006

spoon, mountain to sound, soft effects
japancakes, sleepy strange, the sleepy strange

consonant, little murders, love and affliction
codeine, loss leader, the white birch
chisel, bliss, nothing new
french kicks, one time bells, one time bells

japancakes, down the elements, down the elements

juana molina, hay que ver si voy, son
calexico, all systems red, garden ruin
norfolk & western, porch destruction, a gilded age
neko case, star witness, fox confessor brings the flood

cassavetes, my heart, your beat, funny story
cursive, the night i lost my will to fight, domestica
david grubbs, don't think, rickets & scurvy

macha, light the chinese flower, s/t

aberfeldy, slow down, young forever
camera obscura, tears for affairs, let's get out of this country
the rosebuds, make out song, birds make good neighbors
superchunk, make out bench, incidental music
the little ones, lovers who uncover, sing song

japancakes, soft n ez, the sleepy strange

built to spill, fly around my pretty little miss, ancient melodies of the future
the promise ring, my life is at home, wood/water
rosie thomas, farewell, when we were small

japancakes, soft -n- ez, the sleepy strange

the little ones, lovers who uncover, sing song
built to spill, fly around my pretty little miss, ancient melodies of the future
promise ring, my life is at home, wood and water

it's been a while since i've been on the air. i guess it will be a month almost when i'm on again next saturday. tune in - wtju.net
