I just realized

…that if I had no regards for how obnoxious it would be to do so, I’d tell everyone about my music collection in the same fashion that others talk about their kids.
Jared likened the joining of our two cd collections to the merger of a big company with a smaller one. Some people might get [...]

2007, anyone?

Everyone is either looking back or looking ahead. Since the looking ahead part for me is way too exciting/stressful to talk about right now, I’ll take a brief look back.
In 2007, I
…gained a fiance.
…bought some music (Wilco and Beirut topping the list).
…stole some music from the fiance (namely Sufjan Stevens).
…saw some movies (No Country for [...]

Addition

If you need some music to walk down the street to, 70s style, check out Orgone. I am not kidding; you will feel like you’re in a movie.

Music!

While others are listening to holiday music, I’m listening to dance music.
KEXP seems to be into the dance music today (not house music, but music that really makes you want to shake your booty), and I have no complaints. Are you tired of hearing cheery Christmas music and want to tap your foot while wrapping [...]

Home style

I’ve been thinking a lot about the type of style I want to use to decorate the living quarters that Jared and I will be sharing soon. I mean, the type of style we want to use. Yeah.
Anyway, I really like the style that Dooce decorates with (check out her Daily Style pictures), but [...]

You know you’re bored when…

…you’ve read all of the websites you always read and it’s only 8:30 AM.
…you check Scrabulous on Facebook every 3 minutes or so to see if it’s your turn in a game.
…you start planning your lunch at 10:30 AM.
…you get frustrated with yourself when you’ve chosen your lunch by 10:35 AM.
…you start to look at [...]

No sir

We finally got around to paying the pet deposit at our apartment (we wanted to make sure Ella didn’t belong to someone else), and the form they gave us to sign mentions that cats must be declawed. Um, excuse me?
No, no, and no.
I’m not sure how adamant they are about this. Hopefully this is just [...]

A week in review

This week has been a doozy, and I’m glad it’s almost over. Our new kitty is in heat, and that makes her one tough broad to live with. I’ve only gotten more than 5 hours of sleep on two nights this week, which makes me another tough broad to live with.
On top of that there’s [...]

Dance party!

So I use Gmail which groups emails under the same subject into one long email conversation. For example, if you and I were to email back and forth 20 times about WordPress, I wouldn’t have 20 emails in my inbox. Just one very long (and potentially boring) email. (I know most of you use Gmail [...]
