3 July 2008 — In which Miss Melville is dumped

5 June 2008 — My Rez Day

I was looking at the profile of a newcomer to The Bluffs, noticing that he had just turned a year old two weeks ago. Then someone (Miss Brentano perhaps?) noticed that today was my Rez Day! I was the oldest avatar in the room.
I don’t know quite how to feel about that.

Getting Things Done

A few times a year I get into organization mode.

7 February 2008

This is the start of my monthly gigs at The Bluffs.
Tonight was a nice set. I was trying to get songs that I don’t usually play. Unfortunately, I have an early morning on Friday, so this is a shorter set than usual.

On Being Flaky

I’ve decided to take a little break from spinning at The Bluffs. Starting next Thursday, February 7, I’ll be playing records the first Thursday of the month. Miss Waffles Brentano will run the other Thursdays.
I have a couple of months worth of playlists to upload.

I don’t quite understand it, but there are people in the world who don’t like Boston.

I remember I was so excited that I found the source song for Pass the Dutchie (Pass the Kouchie). But no one cared. That’s why they got Diana Ross’s Do You Know Where You’re Going To.
