Kat burned me the greatest CD ever.

First of all, it has a lot of Pulp on it. Why? Why didn't I understand sooner? Brilliant, and totally in keeping with the Franz Ferdinand/Scissor Sisters pseudo glam rock universe of evil. Spectacular.

But the other thing, that has me crazy jazzed because it has me wanting to write original material in a vein I've never written in before is this collection of songs she's been discovering that mostly involve girls cutting their hair off and going to sea and/or war. It's exactly the sort of stuff that I have faint memories of listening to when I was little, when I thought my family was Irish because we listened to so much Irish music. And anyway, it's madly brilliant and makes the day better.

Pulp is great!

I've been told I look like Jarvis Cocker... If only I could sing (or dress) like him...

A lot of those songs come from a mix put together by a friend of mine (who resembles your roommate to a startling degree) called And a Maiden all the While. There's also the A Maiden I Will Die mix, in a similar vein.

Also, you should google for Lamplighter of Lamberton for one of the funniest album reviews I've ever read.

Yes, credit where due. Passed from another Katherine, through Mira, to me, on to you.
