Just checking in
Hello all,
Sorry I’ve been M.I.A. for a bit. I’m still in a rather introspective place at the moment, which is a little painful but totally necessary. I’ve been trying to limit my distractions as much as possible, and haven’t been online at all in a couple weeks. I still can’t give up watching my Yankees, which is far too time-consuming but I don’t care. I have...

Happy Birthday to you,...
RA at CVS?!
I just remembered I heard “Two” at CVS today while getting my dad a Father’s Day card. It’s always cool to hear RA in public, (I heard “New York, New York” in Savers right after Gold came out, and twice at TGIFriday’s in the past few months), but it’s also a bit unsettling. It just seems wrong to hear him being played along with all that mindless,...
I'm still here.
I wish I could say my recent absence from the internet was due to my life getting super awesome and that I’ve just been having way too much fun. But it’s really just the opposite of that. My life has gotten super hectic and I’ve been quite unhappy and stressed out. Lots of early mornings - and many more to come, including tomorrow - certainly hasn’t helped. I’ve been...
Hello again my poor, neglected Tumblr pals
I know I said I’d try to catch up with you all today, but then I slept until like 4pm (yeah, I know). I didn’t get anything accomplished (including getting my passport…damnit), and had to watch the Yankees lose to the Red Sox for the 7th straight time - due mostly to horrendous starting pitching, but also to horrendous home plate umpiring. Seriously, you know it’s unfair...

This shit is getting embarrassing.

Thom’s team just lost the Stanley Cup. He’s a really really big fan. He must be sad.
That makes me sad. And I won’t even be able to console him until Thurs.
Yes, I know I’m pathetic.
Hey, Detroit didn’t lose! We still have game 7! (I don’t really care that much but everyone I know will be crazy annoying if we lose.)
Oh yeah…why was I thinking it...
Yeah...
I tried to post that photo hours ago, but I lost my internets connection. Not as bad as losing your drug connection, but it still sucks pretty bad. Anyway, I think it was worth waiting for. Yum.
Hello...brain??
How the hell did I forget Andrew Vanwyngarden (MGMT) when I was making my list of famous peeps I’ve met last night? It was only last Oct., and he is far and away the prettiest famous boy I’ve ever had the pleasure of talking to. (Yes, just talking. Unfortunately…) Damn you memory loss.

I shook Michael Moore’s hand in a gas station in Pinconning, Michigan. Talked with Ryan Adams on the streets of Pitsburgh, PA. Hung out with Bob Segar in Harbor Springs, Michigan. Saw Bill Laimbeer on a golf course and Larry Bird’s brother (Gary Bird?) in a hotel in French Lick, Indiana. Pretty sure I met Bozo the Clown when I was a kid. I might have...

It’s a smell I’ve actually always liked. I wonder if I was a pothead in a former life too. Honest Abe perhaps?
Aww shit…more synchronicity bitches!

Wow…I totally hadn’t seen this before my last post.
I really do love synchronicity.
That fucking thing is still glowing.
Insanity.

Etree is finally back up, but the show will be downloading for another 8 hrs.
So it’s gonna have to wait until tomorrow.

Guys Still Whistle?
When I walked out of the gas station last night, I was whistled at by a tow truck driver. And he looked to be only about 30. Seriously dude? Did you really think that was going to work? Did I look like I wanted to be whistled at in my baggy jeans, Phish shirt, glasses and ponytail?
What a catch you must be…
AAARRGGGH!!!!
Why is it whenever Colin Weaver posts a song, it won’t play for me?!
Everyone else seems to hear them just fine.
I hear everyone else’s songs…so what the fuck?
Anyway, yes, Andrew Bird is awesome.

Okay, so I know this show has gotten some mixed reviews, but I have to say the boys sounded phenomenal. No, we didn’t get YEM, David Bowie, Reba, 2001, Split Open and Melt, Guyute, Tweezer, Piper, Lizards or really hardly any of my favorites whatsoever. But we did get a rockin’ Possum, a sick Golgi, a fantastic Fluffhead, a super fun Hood, a groovin’ Back on the Train, a dirty...

Note to Self:
Write down your passwords.
You know you always forget them, and after plugging in everything you can think of that it should be, you finally have to give up and change the damn thing. Only to forget it yet again the next time.
Do yourself a favor and keep a list. Dummy.
