…designing a cd cover for a love comp cd for your boyfriend’s birthday. He’s 30! Fittingly, I’ve included songs by probably no one he likes, but all people I like, which is truly the nature of these homemade compilations. From Stevie Nicks and Cat Stevens to Django Reinhardt and Antonio Carlos Jobim to the Dixie Chicks and Lily Allen, this CD is sure to make him…um…run the other way. But that’s why I give it to him before the cherry cheesecake.
