I got in a fight with a girl on the Fourth of July. I don’t really know what happened, but after drinking some great wine in the cemetery, hitting up a boss picnic in an Oakland estate overlooking 580, and ending up back in the Rock Block drinking cheap beer and watching my friends light shit on fire I felt like dancing. Good thing we had a kitchen and an iPod dock. The cops came but we didn’t notice. We turned the music up. I rode my bike home to grab my iPod. We danced some more. Next thing I know my friend and I start swinging. Neither of us know how it started. It was total dance punching, no face shots, pauses to pick new songs, and really in the end she kicked my ass as I went flying on the ground into a bag of recycling. After that Miss Rodeo America and I rode home and I had to take a shower from the fight club.

The next day my opponent posted some photos on Facebook. The bruises were brutal and at first I felt bad until I realized that we had a good time. A couple days later, I found a small bruise on my left arm. I *never* bruise, so I felt proud that my ass got slightly kicked as well.

Some of these songs we listened to that night, some other ones I didn’t hear until this week (the new CSS album is great, and I like this Black Kids song quite a bit). These are my 13 favorite songs as of like…right now.
