morning runs

i'm not a morning person at all but there is nothing more exhilarating then waking up in the wee hours of a winters morning where the sun is beginning to shrug off the blankets of darkness and begins to cast a dim glow over the barely waking city. When everything is still that gray blue and the light begins to dance in the morning dew, climbing into the car with the heater on low and having the windows down so that icy coldness numbs your nose and awakens you. Being soothed by the tunes of zee avi in her mellowed voice.

oh vegetable car

i haven't heard a song that has made me smile like a loon in a long time... this song

is by non other than the musical genius that is josh radin. It's about a guy and a girl 

which is what most songs are about. And a green mercedes, diesel, two door. Its 

catchy tune is perfect for those lovely summer days where you wind the windows down 

and the sun is shining and you're pretending you're in the 60's with your head scarf 

on in a sweet red convertible mustang (or a fiat bambino or whatever else tickles 

your fancy). Its quite possibly the cutest song of the week.. rivaling the likes of 

"il m'a vue nue" by merringuett. I don't even know what she's singin but it sounds cute 

and i can always pretend.

"beneath the parasol, the world is all a smile.

That makes you feel brand new down to your toes"
