Normally, I'm a very solid sleeper.  I curl up, I'm out in a matter of minutes, and I stay out for at least eight hours.  Bedtime is my favorite time of the day.  But I went to bed in a foul mood last night, which lead to a lot of tossing and turning and weird, half-dozing anxious dreams wherein family members were ( Read more... )

We didn't have anything planned originally, but Nick happened to come across a Carbon Leaf flyer in Chapel Hill and, knowing that they're one of my very favorite bands, he picked up tickets!  The show was technically Friday the 13th, but it ran into the wee hours of Saturday morning.  I'd never seen Carbon Leaf in person, and I was very impressed ( Read more... )
