Now now I know there isnt any new books on the list. Thats because that is a whole different summer reads list. This is just a few book/graphic novels that are timeless to me.

Hey there, Hi there, Ho there

So in order to follow through on the list of things I promised myself I would do this summer. I created a summer mixtape for getting shit done. I’ll probs end up changing it every week or so because I’m fickle like that. Also it helps when working in a corporate office to have to some tunes to make you feel like less of a sellout. Seriously, the other day I was complemented in a meeting for using my moleskin because quote ”A real professional way to take notes.” I was like what the fuck? I was doodle while you were talking, not taking note. Anyways. Some other fun news. Murray my good friend and bandmateish just did some first records in Black Bear Cave. Shit was ridiculousness. On a quick side note. Have you ever noticed that theres not many hipster clothes over large? I think larger hipsters need like a hipster Lane Bryant. For the plus sized hipster on the go. Hmm maybe that will be the next store I open after I open muff’in muff’out.

Let you future be a odd one,

Marc Allen
