romanticalgirl wrote me Burn Notice for advent, because she loves me and is made of win. I know you're all jealous. Read it and be really jealous.
2. Speaking of jealousy,ethrosdemon wrote me a story for my birthday. Yes, it was last week, but better late than never when it comes to brilliance. Especially when that brilliance is a Gossip Girl/Harry Potter X-over. Read I'm Pretty Much a Big Deal before you kick the bucket in envy.
And for the second time this week, I bring you music. Here is my Friday Five of Awesome because music should be shared and loved by all.

Here is my Friday Five of Awesome because music should be shared and loved by all.
1. Radiohead 'Killer Cars' – A B-Side (presumably from The Bends era, because of how hard it rocks out) about the dangers of driving. I make no secret of my Radiohead love, but I have come to accept that there will never be a The Bends Part 2, which is very sad b/c that's hands-down my favorite Radiohead album. Although Hail to the Thief is kind of awesome.
2. Rachel Stevens 'Some Girls' (remix) – A song about not getting what you want that was very big in the UK about two, almost three, years ago. I heard it in the dressing room of a store about six months ago and was transported back to some serious clubbing days.
3. Kanye West 'Homecoming f/ Chris Martin' – Okay, look, I know seeing the name Chris Martin has either enthralled some people or driven them off to get pitchforks, and you know, I understand that. I was a big Coldplay fan before fame came along, but Chris just does the chorus here. 'Homecoming' is really Kanye's love letter to the city where he grew up (Chicago). I played it 12 times yesterday.
4. Joe Purdy 'Blue in the Sky' – I love Joe Purdy madly. He's not famous, he's not pretty, but damnit he'll write you a gorgeous song on his guitar and have you sobbing in your beer in a heartbeat. This song is beautiful and uplifting and will make you smile and you won't know why, but I'll tell you, why, it's b/c it's Joe and that's what he does.
5. Ella Fitzgerald 'Black Coffee' – Jazz fans tend to love Ella and Billie Holiday, but I don’t tend to do things like other people. I'm not into Billie at all, but I can listen to Ella all fucking day. Especially when she's talking about coffee and cigarettes and waiting for her lover to come back.Zip file (plus extras here)

Joe put out another fucking album recently baby (Take My Blanket And Go). That makes like four or five this year. He's more prolific than Ryan. It's kind of crazy.
