I'm back to school this week, well, part time at University of Nebraska Omaha. Only two classes this semester, as I'm still working full time. I've got a year left on my contract, then I'm quite sure I'll be able to support going to school full time. This time is more of a transition for me. And I'm going to be really fucking busy.

I still like the Foo Fighters.
My social life is fucking dead lately. There's a lot of reasons for that. New town. Working horrible hours (11pm - 8am). Haven't really met any interesting people. My own fucking bizarre social anxieties.

Since America's policy is now "pre-emptive strike[s]" against "terrorists", shouldn't the Department of Defense change it's name back to the Department of War (or at least the Department of Offense)?
Neoconservatives are constantly talking about being on the offensive. Hell, Mr. 9/11 Rudy Giuliani is running on the ''keep America on the offensive" platform.
Just seems logical.

I've heard of Two Gallants from somewhere before, but I admit I'm guilty of never really giving them a chance. The folk duo from San Francisco are signed to indie label Saddle Creek here in Omaha, so it's fitting they stop through to play the label's new music venue/bar The Slowdown the other night with Against Me!. Here's a band you definitely have to...

He had no choice it was the only way.
Death's comin' and he's still running. And stuff.

If I recall correctly, you were in the military, but I can't remember if you were in Iraq.

The new YYYs! song has been in my head the last couple of days. I really like the video too:
After a year in Omaha, I'm pretty depressed about the lack of meaningful social relationships I've been able to develop here (basically zero). Besides the weather, it really makes me miss the UK. Way better than the three years I lost living in Texas though.
