I am currently at work, where I will be for hours and days more. Last night I was here until nine, and I left the building only to face a torrential downpour. Too cheap to take a cab, too stubborn to wait more than a few minutes, I rode home at a snail's pace. It was not the most uplifting evening in recent history.
I like Madonna and I like The Darling Buds, both of whom released albums called Erotica on the same day 10-odd years ago. Madonna is great and all, but that album wasn't her best; on the other hand, the B uds' release was darling. Plus, the cover art is yellow and dreamy. If you like sugary/shoegazey/lady-voiced pop, you should really pick it up.
Update: it is 9:55 and I am still here at work. This is the longest day I've ever worked: thirteen hours so far, with many more to come. If i were paid by the hour, man, would I be cleaning up. Alas, I am not, on both counts. Does anybody know of an open job position that calls for part-time squirrelology? If so, please contact me; I will send you my resume and we can chat.
