with a cherished moment of boredom at work a few days ago, i browsed the web looking for some music for listens. (my library was transfered to my iBook a few months ago, so no more itunes on my ibm thunkpad). i came across an internet-only album offered by john frusciante, and i'm listening to it now. unproduced with a cheap drum machine sound ( Read more... )

after late morning accounting work and a walk to java monkey for hot tea, i decided i needed a nap. because saturday was turning into a day of relaxation, something that has been a rarity the past three weeks with class work, i needed to act on this. my ibook gave me elliott smith's either/or. a phone call woke me during the last song, and then ( Read more... )

a close friend living in chapel hill, lj'er pursuit_of_vice, gave me a small collection of music, so i've interspersed today's studies of accounting and ethical leadership with sample listens of the tunes. it's all imported into my iTunes library, so rating and adding to playlists is being processed. of the music, the kinks, leonard cohen, and ( Read more... )

last night, i finally had the chance to meet my new virtual friend, L--, at the Universal Joint. and this all started when I modeled my friendster profile after Charlie Brown, saying i was looking for a L-- and the Great Pumpkin. and, behold, a L-- messaged me a few weeks after. for reasons too boring to warrant detail, now my profile is modeled ( Read more... )
