Ah Monday. This'll be my last Monday at my work for this summer. And probably my last Monday until June some time. That's both good and bad. So it goes.

I've been listening to a band called The Math and Physics Club. I totally recomend that you go pick up their first two Ep's. They have that Belle and Sebastion sound going for them. Kinda,...

You know it's a slow day when you say to your self:

"I'm going to get my (insert RPG character class) to level (insert really high number) today before (insert something that actually matters)."

So I'm off to get my Diablo 2 Assassin to lvl 50 before dinner.

chuckle.

no worries. panic has subsided. in other news I had a funny conversation with a girl at work yesterday:

girl - "Ever feel like you just want to quit?"

me - "All the time."

girl - "I feel like it right now. But I'm not sure what I'd do."

me - "I'd move East, you know to The West, and get a job in a...

I'm still all sleepy from the weekend. Lameness. But it's been a low key week at work. I think I might be taking a few weeks off at the end of month. One for the first week of school and another to get ready for that week. chuckle. It's all about mental prepairdness....yeah. Nothing else matters.

They covered Dancing in the Dark. I...

So, yesterday I got all rained on at Bumbershoot. So after the Posies I decided that waiting around for 2 hours in the cold wind wasn't the best idea. So I didn't...

Another good day at the Bumbershoot. Carolyn Mark was great! Also the Smart! fundraiser event was awesome. Sarah Vowell, Lemony Snicket Guy, David Eggers, Mike Doughty, and the Transatlantic Orchestra (A.K.A Death Cab for Cutie).

Sarah Vowell's essay/talk was so very witty and on the mark and just plain informative. She talked about the history of the song "the battle hymn of the republic". It...

Fun day at Bumbershoot yesterday. Took my mind off of things for a little bit. today will be a slow music day at the festival so I'll end up seeing bands I don't know. Expanding my horizons kinda, sorta, maybe.

Also, I have confirmed that m.ward is in fact the greatest musician of our time. Or among them at the very least.
