No wonder my uncle got me the Nickel Creek CD — they sound just like his band lol, except the members are my age and not his. They’re pretty good, though … sound like a mix of Sister Hazel, Enya, and Leahy. Nice music to listen to before bed … or when you’re sad.

As for the other CDs I’ve listened to, Love Actually is good for those mellow/rainy days, and definitely something Natalie would like. It has bonus Christmas songs too. Rammstein’s “Herzeleid” is awesome — “Heirate Mich” (translation: “Marry Me”) is my favorite song at the moment. And Count The Stars’ “Never Be Taken Alive” isn’t bad, a mix of punk and emo.

I’m wearing the fleece from Brian’s parents right now since the house is cold, even though I just turned the heat up to 70 … it’s warm. Yay.
