Saw Black Rider last night. It was.....interesting. The music was really good.
UPDATE! i puked on the street in front of work like a homeless person. classy. also, i forgot how brilliant the weakerthans are. seriously, them's some amazing lyrics.
So, you posted in that Mountain Goats thread about the Babylon Springs EP . . . I just got mine in the mail and wanted to thank you for your post. I never would have heard about it otherwise.
I've been getting annoyed with music lately, all music, and this worries and saddens me more than anything else in my life.
My friend who was supposed to help me move never called me due to some miscommunication, so I fell asleep stoned and sad on the couch of my old apartment with the cat in my arms. It's been awhile since I went to... Read More

edit 1059pm: I guess I'm about done packing. All I have aside from clothing are 4 boxes of books, one of cds, a shoebox full of personal mementos, a little box full of polaroids and photobooth strips, a package of crayons, and a package of markers. I don't know how i feel about that.
i hadn't heard them, but i just listened to some of their stuff on myspace. it's pretty good. i don't think it quite captures the same sound and feeling as the girl groups of the 60s though.
I used to really enjoy reading the CE board, but now it's just frustrating and, half the time, I'm embarassed for whomever wrote the article. Sad.
Dropped off the deposit to my new place this morning, should be packing/moving over this weekend. Discovered that I needed more things than I thought (2 big comfy chairs, micowave, little coffee table, dvd player, stereo, lots of frames,... Read More
Since September 2004 I have lived: Westlake Village, Burbank, West Los Angeles, East Hollywood, Downtown Los Angeles and now, Silverlake.
When you turn your iTunes on random and the first words you hear sung after hanging up with your new landlord are "please, please don't leave me", it's really hard to get excited about moving out of someplace you love into an apartment smaller than... Read More
I heard a rumor you were thinking of getting a rabbit, and I just had to express my horror at the thought. If you ever got a rabbit, I wouldn't even be able to so much as give you a hug without prescription medication nearby.
Despite what reads like Bean's allergies above, I am totally in support of more folks owning bunnies. They are lovers. Simply check out my picture of bunny Brundlefly if you need any cute coersion.
Still nauseous, and not from booze. I forgot how bad this could hurt, and it's never really been like this. Coupled with the fact that it's all my fault makes this possibly one of the worst days in years.
(hugs) I'm really sorry to hear things are sucking so much right now. If you wanna talk, even just to say hi and chat, please feel free to drop me a line. It was good meeting you, you're a hell of a lot of fun.
