Mix Tape completed (long ago)
So a while ago I mentioned that I was taking suggestions for the Most Perfect Beginning of Summer Mix Tape Ever, 2008 Edition, and then utterly failed to follow-up update with the final line-up, since I have also utterly failed to post on or even log into this blog for the past month. Um, yeah. I pretty much rock at blogging.
So—not that it matters in the slightest, but just to maintain a cohesive blog narrative—here it is:
