Well, guess I don't need to do the extra clues, we have a winner! July's Album of the Month is Lido Pimienta - Miss Colombia. We have people over tonight for Father's Day but I'll post more information tomorrow. Hope anyone who is a father had a great day today as well!

Well, they don't lie. When I was in high school my parents made me go on this church trip to Mexico and it was around the time that song came out and it was basically the only song we heard the entire time we were there. They were playing it constantly. This has nothing to do with the album...

Not Shakira... but she might have something in common with the artist/band. :)

Apologies, I realize I have been light on the clues so far. I will try to post more frequently in the last half of the month. In the meantime also feel free to ask questions and I might answer them.

Let's play a game: Click me! In case the instructions don't come up... you're trying to enter the shortest route possible to get from one place to the other. One or more of the countries along this route is relevant to the AotM.

Sorry, I got a surprise deployment tonight so the next clue is gonna be a bit late. I love everyone's guesses so far though!

I got home early from the movies (saw Furiosa, it was pretty good) so here's the first clue a bit early: Clue 1: Since I brought up birthdays... The album of the month was recorded within my lifetime. (If I haven't mentioned my age on here before, here's a sub-clue... Billboard says the #1...

Edit: July’s album of the month is Lido Pimienta - Miss Colombia. During the pandemic when we were all stuck inside I ended up watching a lot of the NPR Tiny Desk concerts on Youtube and this one immediately stuck out to me. I don’t speak Spanish, but I was intrigued by the different...

oh wow that was quick, haha. I have a few in mind that I could pick, I just need to make sure any of them are widely available. I'm away for a bit at the end of this month so I will have to get to planning.

I completely forgot about RSD yesterday because I was painting with some friends over discord. I haven't painted in years and acrylics aren't really what I was super familiar with but I had so much fun and I think it turned out pretty good (I didn't quite finish at the bottom though).

Looks like my store might have one: Ladytron - Light & Magic (Rsd) [Record Store Day] | Siren Records

My shop was pretty picked over by the time I got there so I ended up not getting anything but it was nice to look. Ended up getting a few books from the indie bookstore down the street instead. Still a great day.

Once again I completely forgot about record store day, lol. Wouldn't have been able to go first thing today anyway due to a planned group thing but we just decided we would go over after lunch and see if there is anything fun left. Hope everyone is finding what they want!

I was in a meeting and vaguely registered the house was shaking but didn't think about it too hard until someone mentioned it was an earthquake, then everyone on our team who lives near here was like "ohh, so that's what that was." I remember the one from 2011 because I was waiting for my...

Book 5 - Fever Dream - Samanta Schweblin I read Little Eyes a few years ago and remember liking it a lot, and I really enjoyed the writing of this one as well. I don't think I enjoyed it quite as much, but the atmosphere was excellent and unsettling. I might see if I can grab Little Eyes again...
