Heavy Rotation Vol. 3: Cartoons and Cereal

The other day I discovered that I may be up to 4, even 5 consistent readers. Watch out world; pretty soon I'll need two hands to count the number of dependable readers this blog has! And so, despite my reluctance to write today, I feel that I must. I've been putting off the next post for a few reasons. The first is that there's been WAY too much good music coming in from all sides lately that it's been damn near impossible to narrow stuff down to just five tracks, especially if I also take into account the older stuff I rediscover from time to time. Ultimately, I decided to just screw the whole five track limit this time and double that to ten (plus the inevitable bonus track).

The second reason I've been procrastinating writing this post is that between finishing up school, drinking, catching up with friends before leaving, Captain America Civil War, drinking, starting my Army officer training and drinking, I didn't really have the time to sit down and crank this out. It may or may not surprise you but each post takes easily 2-4 hours. Granted some of that time is procrastinating, but still.

The final reason is that I couldn't think of something to rant about. Scratch that, I always have something to rant about. What I meant was I couldn't find a way to connect a rant to a track I've been listening to a lot recently. The last two posts kind of seamlessly connected track to rant and I know two is too small of a sample size to get attached to a particular format but damn it, it's my blog and it turns out that I have no motivation to write a half assed piece of work. Fortunately, as it always does, Netflix hath provided in its abundance. How? Well, you'll just have to read on to find out.
