music events

[bsmith14]

with a cherished moment of boredom at work a few days ago, i browsed the web looking for some music for listens. (my library was transfered to my iBook a few months ago, so no more itunes on my ibm thunkpad). i came across an internet-only album offered by john frusciante, and i'm listening to it now. unproduced with a cheap drum machine sound complementing his guitar, but i enjoy nevertheless. it is a soundtrack to my L.A. dreams. his sounds, at least on this album, are hard to describe. i wish i had the talent with words to do so.

class work galore this weekend. i'm trying to finish most of my midterm this week, consisting of four essay questions. I hope to outline and start on my 5-10 pager for accounting before friday.
