So, uh, I might have mumps or cat scratch. Awesome! But, I don't know, life is pretty good, so I don't really mind. Aside from that whole swelling/pain thing. Drrrrrr.
So far I've seen Talib Kweli/MF Doom at the Showbox, and Gloria Steinem (wow, I just realized that silly mistake) at the opera house...

Obviously, considering is the key word, because there are a lot of shows there. But, for once I'll be making money, so, hey, you never know. The ones in italics mean I already have tickets, the ones with a * indicate that I have to magically become 21. I wonder how I could manage that...
I love how I'm already spending money I don't have...
