I've Got Plans!

My office gets free cd's sent to us all the time. There used to be a branch of my office that reviewed them for a catalogue we did, but that closed a couple years ago; that hasn't stopped some of these record companies from sending us cd's, though.

And since I receive the mail, and go through it first, I just snatch up whatever they send. It's a self-declared perk. Usually it's crap - I've got a huge bag filled with cd's no one would ever want to listen to at home that I've been trying to figure out what to do with for ages.

But every so often I get something good, and today's one of them days - I got a copy of Death Cab For Cutie's new album! Yay!

I am sooo pleased. I almost pooped my pants when I opened up the package. I'd already burned a couple songs that'd popped up online, but now I gots the whole damned thing. I rock.

From what I've heard about the album, it's not as great as their last, Transatlanticism, but really what could be? That album is amazing. I do like the few songs I've heard so far, and I'm just pleased as punch to have the new one, and for free! Can't beat free.

Well, if there'd been a twenty dollar bill in the package with the cd, that would've beaten free. But this is good, too.
