And I couldn’t resist:

I would have completely included some Wrath of Khan clips here, but I couldn’t bring myself to do so, considering Khan’s fate and all.

You can stop refreshing the internet now…

Sharing Pep-Talks.

Personally, there have been some dark days in my mind for the past couple weeks. Winter is never easy, and I am always sort of in denial that I let it affect me. But really, I do – and it hits me like a ton of bricks, right about this time, every year. And it doesn’t make it any easier that I am a member of this HUGE club I like to call the “Broke-Ass Masses.”

And there are a lot of us.

But a very dear friend and confidante of mine gave me some brilliant advice for the doldrums that I would like to share with my fellow friends of the web and music lovers that read my little blog…

“You just need to find a way to find your inner peace, then hold onto it for a moment. When you rock out you are in a state of bliss, Jen. Just stay in that zone for a little longer after rocking out. Extend it each time. Let that good mood flow.”

It might sound a little cheesy, but its a hell of a piece of advice, not to mention – a great moment in life coaching. I personally shall cherish it always.

So, if you need to – find your rock-out zen moment. And hold onto it. I’m not trying to draw any sort of attention to any sad-sack winter behavior I have been exhibiting, but hey – shit is hard, and chances are, the shit you are going through now, you’ve been through before, and you’ve made it out virtually unscathed.

You can do this. And I can’t promise anything, but I have a good feeling about one thing:

I think everything is going to be okay.

Things I learned about Harry Nilsson Today:

That he wrote this song, made popular by Three Dog Night.

2. That Mama Cass died in his London flat
3. That Keith Moon died in that same flat four years later.

Yeah. I’m a little overwhelmed.

Okkervil River on Letterman

I’m gonna mention Laura Leebove’s 2008 mix again, because “Pop Lie” by Okkervil River was on it… and it reminded me how much I LOVE this song. The band was on Letterman, they played said track. So, if you missed it – here you freakin’ go! Happy Friday!

“…and you’re lying when you sing alooooonng”
