I’ve been MIA since last week after taking a vacation in Florida. I did somehow manage to get both a summer cold and a sunburn, yet still had a good time.

Anyway, I’m back and want to hit you up with a very cool song I heard on a YouTube video the other day. It turned me on to this cool little Britpop group that is putting a twist on early 60s girl bands. They’re called The Pipettes and I think I’m in love. A girl band hasn’t been this much fun since The Go-Gos.
