Blog Tease

I can't possibly think about what to blog about today. I'm sure something is coming along, but I just don't have an album in mind. Hopefully this weekend, or early next week, I can get to the library and pick up some more music. Maybe later today there will be an Okkervil River blog, if you're lucky.

On a non-music note, I finished reading Cormac McCarthy's The Road this week. What an incredible book. I certainly have a strong opinion about it, but I don't know that I have the words today. I read the entire thing over the course of three or four days, and I'm glad I did. If you haven't read this book yet, by all means go to your public library. I've read a couple of his other books - excellent works by any standard - but this is probably my favorite. I'll be hard-pressed not to buy a copy of it somewhere.

I'm so happy to have it be Friday that it's not funny.
