Not the greatest week in terms of rest. This week’s hotel bed was so firm and unyielding that had I not actually yanked the sheets to check, I would have sworn the mattress was a box spring. Here’s hoping for some improvement next week. “Gardening at Night” – R.E.M “Here Comes the Fool You Wanted” […]

Not been a good week in terms of working conditions. The air conditioning system in my part of the office has been out of commission all week, and it’s been hotter and more humid inside than out all week. There’s definitely something wrong when going outside into the 100+° with the heat index Virginia summer […]

…so, I’m not going to. Have a good weekend, everybody! “Never Said” – Liz Phair “My Michelle” – Guns N’ Roses “Voices in the Jungle” – Rock Sugar “Dose of Thunder” – The Replacements “Lovegame” – Lady GaGa “Reservations” – Wilco “Operation Ground and Pound” – Dragonforce “Deadbeat Club” – the B-52s “One of the […]

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 […]

Typical work week…ups and downs and not enough productivity. “Speechless” – Lady GaGa “Pool Party” – The Aquabats “One Big Love” – Patty Griffin “Manhattan Project” – Rush “Don’t Tell Me (live)” – Avril Levigne “A Crippling Blow” – The Killers “Miracle of Life” – Yngwie Malmsteen “How Much More” – The Go-Gos “Utopia” – […]
