"A little bit of this. A little bit of that. A pot, a pan, a broom, a hat. . ."—Anatevka, "Fiddler on the Roof." This is a blog about everything and nothing. A little parenting, a little humor, some poetry, news, essays, a lot of music. I don't want to waste your time, just send positive vibes into the blogosphere. Oh, yeah, my name is Sarah Torribio. Enough about me, how are you?
My song of the Day is "Black Summer" by the Red Hot Chili Peppers, off their brand-new album called, wait for it . . . Black Summer.
Come on. It's the Red Hot Chilli Peppers. When they put out a new song, there's always going to come a moment when I turn my futuristic, Tron-like, Gary Numan-like chair around and push the button like one of the judges on The Voice
This band, which after years of flirting finally won me over with their Californication album, has amazing durability and staying power.

This song, "FLAG" by Coach Party, is a gift to the world. The guitars range from the emotional cheat-sheet that is a power chord to a discordant symphony. Dig the frontal assault of rage from a woman who's beyond had it. It's like the '90s all over but more polished and with an English accent.

Listening to this song is as cleansing as burning sage. "Elephant Stone" by the Stone Roses is my song of the day.
