Am about to set my nose to the grindstone to get through this strange NaNoWriMo slump and wanted to dedicated to the flist this must listen beautiful 50s-Girl-Pop-with-a-hint-of-Gospel-meets-Hippie-Strings (phew!)

I <3 Strummer SFM. He makes me want to shave my head into a mohawk and take to the streets, however silly that sounds.

Missed quite a bit over the last week as I misjudged how deeply my anxieties would affect me. *sigh* Not in a happy place right now.
