Sheesh, you don't update for a few days and everyone ceases to comment in your journal.
I'm at Ma's place stealing a few minutes of internet to keep you all informed about my thrilling life. I will have internet of my own this Sunday! Yay!
Um...oh yeah, more shows this weekend. Three days of them. Grandaddy/Elbow/Starlight Mints on Saturday, Califone/Clem Snide on Sunday, and GBV/The...

Saturday afternoon. I wanted to be up by 10 or 11, but instead I slept in until 1. Oops.
Shows recap: Lightning Bolt was amazing. The last time I saw a band with a sound that devastating was Hella, and I think that was mainly because the drummer from Hella is some kinda drumming robot or something. Fucking awesome. Unfortunately, I had a shitty time...

Sounds like a cool show. I kind of get annoyed with the over enthusiastic crowds sometimes. In my old age I really just want to watch the band play. Moving in the rain sucks! I hope that goes well for you.
minimalism:
Ah! The joys of moving...
I hate it really. I've moved like 8 times in the last 12 years. The place I live now might very well be the longest I've ever stayed anywhere. I'm just getting it to the way I want it finally and it figures, I'll be moving out next year.

Going to see Lightning Bolt tonight. Never heard 'em, so hopefully they'll be good. Correction: hopefully I'll think they're good.
Epoxies/Green Circles/Little Killers tomorrow! Everyone in Portland should go. Even if the Minds aren't playing.
I'm a lazy shit. Packing must continue, but I am powerless against my crippling sloth.
The new site doesn't bug me quite as much now. I still hate that grey...

Crippling sloth! I love it
I think everyone is getting used to the change now. I personally like it. I still don't care for the friends list, though.

THE UBIQUITOUS ENTRY ABOUT THE SITE'S NEW LOOK
Yeah, um, it's going to take some getting used to. Not sure I like it as a first impression, but it'll probably grow on me.
The move continues. I'm taking the "fill a bunch of boxes with crap, take them over, empty them, bring them back" approach to it, since boxes are kind of in short supply....

Is it really a bad sign to quote No Doubt? Fuck, I must be a mess then.
mistersatan:
Psssh, right. We don't have all that good stuff up here- it's much more like Siberia, or Detroit.
Weekend recap: I did nothing.
And it was wonderful. EnergyChannel and I set out with the goal of sitting on our asses and watching movies, eating junk food and ignoring the outside world, and I'm proud to say that our wacky scheme worked. We watched Matchstick Men, which was okay, but kinda slow, some Japanese movie about a vortex taking over a small town, which...

I've never seen supre troopers, but I've been meaning to check it out.
Are you moving out of Portland? Anyway, take care.

Okay, so when is Oregon going to get over this pathological fear of pumping its own gas? I was sitting at the gas station today, debit card and key on my leg, ready for the dude to come over and do my bidding. Waiting......waiting......waiting. He was the only one working, so I couldn't get too mad. I kept thinking how ridiculous this was, how I...

Holy shit that was funny. About the woman, that is. Damn. I'm supposedly moving to Portland in about a year. I just don't know about that gas law thing. Madness, I tell you!
What exactly is the reasoning behind not being able to pump your own gas?

it's cool.
we went someplace else and had a few more drinks, decided that we were too bushed to rock out and called it a night.
how was your show?

Another concert tonight.
I was standing in my usual position of front and center, staring off into space, as I was alone and this was permissible. I could hear little snatches of conversation around me, could see the girls fluffing their hair and checking their appearance, some of them looking uncomfortable, as if they knew they were putting on an act of some sort, and...

I'm sorry to hear about your friend. That just sounds really bad.
I know how you feel about the kids at the shows. A few years back I took a GF to see garbage, and the place was just packed with youngens. It made the fact that Shirley Manson kept showing off her underwear kind of inappropriate.
You shouldn't feel bad about that dumb ass with the camera. I mean, they normally say no cameras at shows.

Ahhh, it's Friday.
And it's Friday after work.
And I have two friends coming into town, one of which I haven't seen for five years.
He's also never been to Portland before, so this should make for a fun weekend.
And then I get to cap things off with Interpol on Sunday night.
Yeah, I don't have much more to say right now. I thought...

Do you know of anything going on after the Interpol show? Maybe we could hit a local watering hole for drinks or something?

how you doing? me not moping no more, nope nope nope -- great to see kev this weekend, he rules.
Thanks to everyone for the sweet-ass birthday wishes! You guys all rock.
It was a wonderful birthday, after the soul-sucking work part. Well, not soul-sucking so much as mindless and boring as shit. I seriously spend half my day on SG now. I've gotten over that whole conscience struggle about logging into a porn site at work, since I know that this poor little nonprofit...
