Because it’s been hell of day and I don’t feel like futzing with my phone or my music archive, I’m not posting a random playlist, but rather a photo (taken by facebook personage Wendy Lea “WaltzingDog” Feldmann) from our Saturday night set at Dragon*Con last weekend, because it’s cool, and makes us look like a […]

Okay, folks, this has been a really, really long week, mostly because of the involvement of hours and hours of conference calls and powerpoints (seriously – yesterday was like eight hours’ worth). This is my life now, apparently. the good news is that I have short work week next week, and although that break will […]

So, after a hell of a week where I’ve been way too much like management, I took a day off of work, because, well, I have the time and I deserve it. Slept in, hung out with the spouse, went out to lunch and did a little shopping. The spouse got it in her head […]

Hey, it’s Friday, which means music. Lacking any good randomizers, I figured I’d go non-random this time, and list some songs about wizards, given yesterday’s post. Not all of these are Harry Potter, but it’s my list, I don’t care, because wizards are a great topic to mine for music. I’m sure other people have […]

So, traditionally (if not so much lately), Friday has been “random ten” day around these parts, where I run a playlist of ten tunes at random off of the record collection/mp3 player/streaming app/whatever I have around and occasionally comment on them. Not doing that today, though I will toss out this week’s interesting musical discovery. […]

Because sometimes, you need a break from talking about Spider-Man all the time. Enjoy some tunes. “Waiting on a Memory” – Badlees “Love Love Love” – Of Monsters and Men “Call and Answer” – Barenaked Ladies “On Top of the World” – Imagine Dragons “Bragging Party” – The Amps “My Girl’s Ex-Boyfriend” – Relient K […]

So, like all good federal employees, I stayed glued to the internet last night to find out if Congress passed the continuing resolution, so as to know whether I would be locked out of work. Actually, since Friday is my scheduled day off, it was a matter of whether I’d have to go in on […]

Along with being International Talk Like A Pirate Day, it’s Friday, which means, if I get around to it, a list of tunes pulled at random from my hard drive. Twas a long week at work. New software releases, lots of repetitive questions, briefings to a nationwide audience, dropping everything to respond to Senatorial queries…you […]

After many, many weeks of (mostly exciting and cool) weirdness, I’m sort of zeroing in on a regular schedule again. This may change at any moment, as work is futzing with last-minute scheduling with business travel, and there’s always other mysterious possibilities on the horizon. Anyway, though – it’s Friday morning, the kids are at […]

From yesterday’s post, you might have gotten the sense that I was a little frustrated with the office this week. That’s kind of true, but not the kind of frustrating that’s going to have me running to the job boards to find something else. I’m relatively happy with my employment lot at the moment, little […]
