I'm sorry, and you're welcome

The title of this post is a favorite saying of one of my career mentors, Amanda Bernard. I could think of no better way to describe what I'm sharing here: a near-comprehensive playlist of songs that have meant a lot to me over the years.

I've always felt that it was impossible to know me without knowing the idiosyncratic range of music I obsess over. There's something there for everyone regardless of taste, but, as I like to say, punk (especially pop-punk) is "the street I live on."

It's ordered with intention, but feel free to shuffle if that's your thing. The fact that anyone would listen is meaningful enough to me. You might fall in love with a new band. You might lose any respect you have for my musical opinion. Regardless, you'll understand me a little bit more.

I'm sorry, and you're welcome.
