something I am grateful for today

getting my laundry out of the way early

music in heavy rotation

There is a group of musical artists that I tend to play every month, on average, and a group that I play about every other week. The odd thing about these groups is that it doesn't have a lot to do with how much I love their music -- many of my absolute fave artists do not appear on these lists at all. Also, these lists tend to slowly morph over time. But, for whatever reason, the lists do seem to occur and I can't help noticing. As things stand at this moment, here they are:

Notable exceptions: for about the past ten or fifteen years, I have been listening to The Charlatans every week. And for about the past seven years, I have been listening to Sulk every day.
