There are very few things in life that are better than spending an evening with Colin Meloy. Went to the Birchmere tonight. He was there on the last night of his solo, acoustic tour. It was awesome, of course. He's such a great performer. And hilarious. Interesting set list. Only two from Picaresque, so it was nice to hear some older ones ( Read more... )

OMG. I just heard "One Week" by BNL on 94.7-the classic rock station. That's just weird. That song was so big when I was 12. I always thought something should be at least 10 years old before being considered "classic". Ah well. It was just weird to hear that song.

Happy fucking New Year everyone! And good riddance to 2005! Finally. What a horrible year. Not just for me, but for family and friends, the country, and well just the world in general.

Since I'm not getting a degree there I didn't have to give them any transcripts or other paper work so that was really nice. And I didn't need their english pre-requisite so the ( Read more... )

It's currently 8 degrees in Chicago.
I probably will be living there next year.
Right now I'm freezing in my house and it's like 30 degrees outside.
Did I mention the campus is literally right next to Lake Michigan?
This just confirms the fact that I'm crazy.

Ahhhh! GENE!!!

Arrested Development is on tonight!! Why does Fox feel the need to torment me so? They know I'm gonna watch, and that I'm going to get my hopes up. Then they'll pull it off the air for several weeks and reduce the episode order to 8 but not use the word canceled and then bring it back. And then take it away again ( Read more... )
