National Appreciate Old Friends Day

|

I have designated today as National Appreciate Old Friends Day.

There is something so important and vital found only in old friends. In people who can tell you who you are when you've forgotten. And also being able to append a previous story and have them understand, without the words. They just know. That is priceless, and something we've lost in the new technoworld, where people get to know each other instantly online and disappear just as quickly; in this city where four years is a long time.

Hang on to your old friends, people.

Here are my albums of today. It is a rainy dreary morning, and one of my favorite hoodie-laden secret shiny days, so I need dark and vibrant music to accompany me on wanderings through Beacon Hill.

  • Charlatans UK -- Somefriendly
  • Bright Eyes -- Fevers and Mirrors
  • Bob Mould -- Workbook
  • Tricky -- Juxtapose
  • Cranes -- Wings of Joy

Happy tramping and sunshine on this gorgeously murky day . . .
