it was inevitable

i am now the owner of a pair of cowboy boots. they are eel-skin and cowhide, and approved by buck. (he is a connoisseur of boots, as a name like buck would imply.) and to be honest, a tiny bit of their appeal is knowing i could be wearing either flotsam or jetsam from the little mermaid. because they scared the crap out of me when i was young.

this week's song on repeat is naked girl by the velvet teen. besides the fact that it is excellent to listen to while driving, i like that there's a point about 30 seconds into the vocal where you think, "huh. that's a dude."
