Fun Size Mix!

I'm a total dork. I uploaded last week's podcast, and then got so distracted by Halloween that I forgot to blog about it. D'oh!

So here you go. . .The Fun Size Mix from 10.29.2009



Remember when you'd empty out your trick-or-treat bucket as a kid? Sticky, crunchy, chewy, chocolatey, sometimes overly sweet, and likely to get stuck in your teeth. And every once in a while that one piece of candy that you just couldn't stand. That's what today's show it like. A big mix of ear candy goodness to give you a boost this morning!
