Interesting note: Brion says that later this year he will finish those unfinished mixes of Fiona Apple's album that got released to rave reviews.

I've decided to try something new. I have something of a routine I go through every day that includes exercise, stretching, reading, writing, and of course math. But I'd like to widen the scope of some aspects of what I enjoy. So I want to listen to a new album and try to make a new meal each week. I've found myself listening to mostly the same artists and songs and eating the same types of food consistently. I think it would be an exercise in flexibility to incorporate this too into my routine. It isn't that I actively dislike other things, but rather that I never make time to find out whether I like them or not.

So, this week I'm listening to Elliott Smith's Either-Or and making goulash.
