Returning to hotel living after a couple of weeks does strange things to a person’s sleep cycle. “Baclava” – Arctic Monkeys “Big Big Ugly” – Innocent Nixon “Broken Family” – Julie Schreiber Band “Move On” – The Rentals “Pollution of the Mind” – Miss Kittin “Begin the Begin” – REM “I Pity the Fool” – […]

Things are looking an awful lot like that other weekend. “Highly Strung” – Orianthi & Steve Vai “Stuck in a Movie” – The Aquabats “A Certain Romance” – Arctic Monkeys “I’ll Give You My Skin” – Indigo Girls (feat. Michael Stipe) “Kiss Me On The Bus” – The Replacements “You Really Gotta Hold On Me” […]

This week, the title’s been the soundtrack of my life…thanks to some bug the eldest brought back from a girl scout activity. Seriously, it’s not much fun feeling like you’ve got a gorilla using your chest as a combination sofa and trampoline. Oh well…here’s hoping the weekend is less pleghm-filled. “Love Can Destroy” – The […]

A nice mix off the laptop hard drive this week, from which tracks two and three nicely complement the news that the stars of Mega Piranha and Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus are joining forces for the sure to be epic motion picture Mega Python vs. Gateroid, coming soon to a basic cable network near […]

Yes, it’s that fateful Friday every year where I get to start resenting my kids because they don’t have to get up early every Monday through Friday for a couple of months, and I still do… THE LAST DAY OF SCHOOL™!!! Oh well, nothing to be done about it. Still, it’s cool another year’s gone […]

I thought I heard a storm last night. Anyway, even though I apparently slept through a hurricane or something, I still don’t […]

Up. Down. From moment to moment. That’s been my week. It’s exhausting. Sun. Rain. Euphoria. Despair. Pleasure. Pain. Smile. Scowl.

Came back from DC a day early because someone else needed to; I’ll never pass up an opportunity to sleep in my own bed another night (I have more hotel points than I’ll possibly ever need…). …And, it turned out Coulton and Paul and Storm were in town…my town (or, you know, the closest major […]
