People have been asking me to submit photos of my living space for a long time now. Whether it is someone at Office Max inquiring about my personal office setup, or people that I have been bugging for decorating tips, I have slacked off for a long time. I took the camera and took some quick snaps.
Yes, this is how my apartment always looks…
Is there anything better than the A Charlie Brown Christmas soundtrack expertly performed by the Vince Guaraldi Trio? Depending on the context or the situation, I dare say not! Whether you celebrate Christmas or not, you can't deny the hushed ambience of 'My Little Drum' (based on the Little Drummer Boy), or the jazzy freakout of 'Linus and Lucy.' Sure the slightly piercing sound of children's voices singing 'Christmas Time Is Here' might not be everyone's cup of tea (I love it, since I am a HUGE!!! Peanuts fan), but that's what the sublime instrumental version is for. My personal favorite on this 11-song soundtrack is 'Skating,' which is just brushed drums, a walking bass, and some nimble piano work. Not your typical cartoon fare, this soundtrack was a revolution in cool back in the 60's when the cartoon first debuted (no I wasn't born then, thanks), and the timeless playing holds up today.
