The Talking Muffin

Two muffins in an oven.

There are a bunch of songs that are just really comforting to me, and I've found myself listening to them a lot lately, specifically going in search of all of the songs that I listened to at kinda difficult points in my life, or just songs that really made me happy that I listened to a lot when I was in eighth grade through junior year of high school.

Right now I'm listening to the Tom Waits collection Asylum Years, which takes stuff off of Small Change, Heartattack and Vine, Closing Time, The Heart of Saturday Night, and some others. I think I like this era of Tom Waits the best. I mean, I recognize the amazingness that is later and weirder Tom Waits, but there's something really soothing and comforting about sentimental gravelly voiced Tom Waits (who manages to be sentimental in a really nice way). I've also been listening to a bunch of Ben Folds again, and say what you will about Ben Folds, but I adore his music.

And because of Stew's (Stu's?) blog, I now find myself browsing the McSweeney's website, instead of working on my drawing. Ah well, I'll set aside drawing time this afternoon.
