Snowper Bowl Weekend
I'd love avoid nerdily talking about how I survived this weekend's snow-in, but I was snowed in so I HAVE NOTHING ELSE TO TALK ABOUT ( Read more... ) -
No York City
Well. Anne Marie and I did NOT make it to NYC this weekend, obviously because of the asshole snow. As if that weren't enough, a bush in my front yard got so weighed down that it blocked my front steps.
I swear, this weather is determined to keep me not just stuck in Pittsburgh, but cooped up in my house going stir crazy.

Faggitude
If you're friends with me and/or my brother Andrew on fb, you probably know that there was an "incident" yesterday where an old church acquaintance of ours called him a "faggot." My brother had joined the Gay & Lesbian Community of Pittsburgh group, and this guy, Wolfe, left a comment on his page that said something like "NOW I know what I wanted ( Read more... ) -
One man band in the making
Well. We celebrated Christmas today with my fam, since we were with Joe's fam on Dec 25 (yay!) this year. Santa brought me a nice new monitor to hook my MacBook up to for when I have my own lil' recording studio set up in the basement.

Ok, yeah, I know about "The Sing-Off." I've been avoiding because I know how obnoxious a cappella can be. Totally. But I finally gave in and started watching tonight. Ben Folds is a judge, how could I not?

Ugly Spring
In the spring of 2008, when my parents were moving to the new place, my mom found an old box of her high school and college stuff. This included a collection of poems she had written. One in particular really stuck with me. She "scrap-booked" and framed a copy for me, which now hangs in my guest room ( Read more... ) -
Lose yourself... and your dignity
The movie 8 Mile is the ONLY thing on th TV right now. This got me wondering how much of the movie is actually anything like Eminem's life. My guess was that the only thing his life and this film have in common is his presence in them. Oh, and rapping ( Read more... ) -
'Tis the season, almost
'Tis the season to be recording this year's Christmas album. If you recall, it's all original tunes this year for us. We got the guitar recorded for my "Meowy Christmas" song and my country song yesterday, and I got the vocals down for the kitty song, too. Feelin' pretty good about it. I can't wait to get back into the studio again ( Read more... )
