Monthly Mixtape: Fire

Noooooooovembra!

I can’t even think about it. How has this year flown by??? Let’s not even discuss it. When did it all slip away??? Don’t even mention it. Why does it go by so fast??? I don’t want to even talk about it.

BUT.

We can talk about a new mixtape! I actually started working on this mix a few months ago (I’m a nerd), but only recently decided it was more than perfect for November. Not only are the trees boasting a performance that sends your eyeballs to trip-out land, it would be loco if I didn’t show a little city pride for our Royals and their fresh World Series championship.

You guys, I don’t even like sports, and I got into this. I stayed up late, got nervous and excited and obsessed with P-Rudd sightings (duh). But honestly, the whole thing was pretty thrilling. I’m not exaggerating when I say that the moment they won, you could literally hear the city roaring. We stepped out on our back porch at nearly midnight and listened to the pops and booms of fireworks, the surreal surround sound of people screaming and cheering from miles away, cars honking, dogs barking (which I’m positive had nothing to do with the fireworks, and only the win. strictly the win.) It was tear jerking. Even for me! Gross.

So the mix: the theme is fire. Every song has to do with those trance-forming flames. Most songs even have the word fire in their title, but not all of them. And I will warn you, there’s a sprinkling of Top 40 in here, because you can’t not! (secretly, I’ve been trying to figure out how to slip in my love for Sarah McLachlan for like, ever. don’t hate. appreciate.)

I give you, the “Mix About Fire” mix.
