Birthday Music #10: Teri
Name: Teri
Girls Rock Camp Donation Tally: $60
Relationship: Teri and I worked together for a very brief period and are Facebook friends, but we've never hung out. Unless I've terrified her with a post I may or may not have made to her Facebook page suggesting we get a drink, that may change soon.
How Did We Meet: Teri was a super star media planner/buyer at OMD before she left to become a super star media planner/buyer at Merlino Bauer Media. In other words, we were both corporate slaves (my take, not necessarily hers) — sharing office space in downtown Seattle — until we decided to strike out on our own. She did it first, one of the folks on the list of those I followed who made me think I could do it too.
Something about Teri: She has pretty red hair and her kids do too. And, judging by her Facebook page, she spends an inordinate amount of time attending their sporting events.
Teri's Playlist: Teri described it as a collection of songs that make her happy: jazz, boys with guitars, girls with louder guitars, hip hop, R&B, smoldering ladies and my very first SpongeBob song.
Delivery: Teri mailed her CD to Oliver's Twist. This is Robert opening it. We were anxious. Well, I was; I think Robert just wanted to cut something.
Favorite (Nostalgic) Tracks: "Tell Me Something Good," Chaka Khan and Rufus, and "Monkey Man," Rolling Stones (Why does this song make me think of David Duchovny?)
Favorite (New to Me) Tracks: "A Change is Gonna Come," Leela James and "Shit List," L7
