When I was a kid, New York City was not a real place. It was a faraway land filled with Ghostbusters, Pigeon Ladies, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Now that I live here, I’m still not sure it’s a real place. Because I live in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. It’s Never Never Land in real life. Almost no one is over 35 years old and if they are, they’re understood as simply a part of the neighborhood —a fixture, more than an actual human being. Graffiti is everywhere. Pizza is for breakfast. Everyone is still a teenager.
There was probably a whole host of things I could’ve gleamed from that realization, but the only one that stuck with me was how cool it would be if we actually had mod-ed out surfboards that worked on the subway rails. I’d ride one. And I’d listen to this the whole time.

The last episode of True Blood season four, “And When I Die” aired last night. If you haven’t seen it yet, don’t read this. Unless you hate surprises and love ruining endings.

Which is really creepy when you think about it because that means that Marnie slept in Lafayette’s body all night, Tauntaun-style. Gross. Anyway, Jesus figures out it’s not Lafayette and he gets his hand stabbed to the table.

I was on vacation in Las Vegas this week (don’t act like you didn’t miss me), but the guys still made me do a mix. I mean, let’s face it, mine really are the best. Anyway, I should probably get back to the roulette table because I’m on a real hot streak. Here’s a mix to make you feel like you’re right there beside me.

Episode eleven, the penultimate episode of True Blood season four, “Soul of Fire” aired Sunday night and because the next day was Labor Day, I didn’t do the recap until today, regular Tuesday. It was a solid episode. Things got ugly.
Things start off with Marnie killing Hot Topic Casey because she wants to leave. Everyone (except Roy, duh) thinks this is way shitty of Marnie. Everyone, including Anotnia. She tries to break up with Marnie because of it, but Marnie uses a spell to bind her. Lafayette sees this go down and everybody knows they’re fucked.
