December 1st and the ritual changing of the logo to the holiday logo is one of my favorite traditions.

I love November. 

Starting with our wedding anniversary and leading to Thanksgiving, a Turkey trot, lots of food, lots of family, and then decorating for Christmas. It went by too fast. And I’m still full.

It's becoming a trend: Another Diabolical Lies podcast episode that really spoke to me. This one focused on building a business, selling it, getting burnt out, and buying it back. Combined with the commentary about being subjected to constant "worldwide feedback" and this one had me nodding along throughout.

The Stats: 26 artists, 29 albums, 247 tracks (327 scrobbles)

Three albums tied in that last place. Of course it picked the worst one of the bunch to showcase.

The updates to the Trakt iOS app have been absolutely horrendous lately. Like “ruining the app” level bad. The star rating change, not being able to filter an actor’s films by watch history, and the overall look are so bad.

A thing I remember from my childhood, or more so the high school years, are the James Bond movie marathons around Thanksgiving. I’d spend countless hours on the basement couch watching whatever movie happened to be playing.
