yesterday, i was fortunate enough to be able to attend an in-studio performance by Air over at KEXP. the performance was lovely and very mellow but the interview was definitely the highlight. Jean-Benoit and Nicholas both thoughtfully answered each of the questions posed to them and in turn i took away a greater appreciation [...]
today we delivered the last check for our down payment on the house. after all of the phone calls, paperwork and money shuffling we can finally concentrate on getting everything ready to move. we can finally focus solely on looking forward to our new pad. in fact, in the spirit of purging the old to [...]

i always hate Sunday nights because it means my weekend is drawing to a close. all in all, we had a fairly busy weekend.
late last week, we took the plunge and bought iLife specifically for Garageband. due to all of the reviews i’ve been reading about it (and the reasonable price) we bought it [...]

this morning i woke up late due to not being able to sleep the benadryl off. i had to take it, i had no choice. it’s not pleasant to have a itch that can only be scratched with your tongue. i decided to forego the shower in lieu of actually having breakfast (this is my [...]
speaking of oasis (wasn’t i just talking about being online too much?) i am so excited about going to the bookstore. and the best part, i feel this way every single time we go. i just love everything about it, but most of all the prospect of new books. i read very quickly and am [...]
