"MIXED UP 16"

Welcome to another edition of "If It Could Only Still Be Socially Acceptable To Make A Mix Tape, This Is What I Would Put On One This Week" Saturday... Last night I did manage to relax a bit, and make a nice dinner and just chill in good company. Today, I got together with some friends and did a big clothing swap. I got rid of a bunch of stuff I'm sick of, and, I have to tell you, I made out like a bandit. Sheesh! They have been getting together and doing this sor of thing for some time and this was the first time Id been to one, but I had a nice time and, seriously, got some great stuff.

Then, obediently back to work I went! No dilly-dallying, Güth! But, I stopped and made a playlist for you, loyal readers, newcomers... this week, I wanted something totally different. Something maybe nobody would expect from me. So, although I haaaate country music, I think old C&W is kind of fun. So here are some that I love. They make me want to do shots of Wild Turkey and punch myself in the face, sort of. Actually... this week, Accidentally Jewish was laughing her ass off in amazement by just how much of a city mouse I am and just how little I know about anything country or agricultural. So, I can dig on the music, and here goes...
