~^*The trip up to good ol' NH this past weekend was most definitely worth it! {Although I could have done without Jeremy's 4 hours of hippie jam music and his criticisms of my driving.

She and I were cohosts for the 2nd annual Battle of the Bands. What a great time we had. And yes, it is safe to say that a rollicking good time WAS had by all. We had a quasi decent turnout {not as large ( Read more... )

~^*So it has been quite a while since I went on a cd-purchasing rampage and fed my voracious music addiction. Well, that all came to an end yesterday.
