Oh yay the gas prices are way down again! That wouldn't have anything to do with elections being right around the corner now would it?

I cant wait to see Dinosaur Jr. / Meat Puppets / Built to Spill this Saturday in Boston. Such an amazing line up! I can't remember the last time I have been this excited about seeing a show.

I'm going to be in Vegas for the World Series this year. Its my first time in Vegas. I've been wanting to go for years now. I should be more excited, but I'm pretty calm actually. I think after playing a few times live before I head out next Friday should help me get in the right state of mind ( Read more... )

I dont read my LJ friends updates for 1-2 months sometimes due to my hectic schedule. I have it set so I can view 20 entries back at a time per page. It only lets me go back 140 entries "earlier", I noticed. It does not give me an option to go back more than 140 friend posts earlier. Is there a way around this ( Read more... )

So I went down to pick up the guitar at the Providence Pawn shop today. It was in a hardshell case, which was not advertised in the auction. The person who was going to sell me the guitar over the counter went ahead and said the case comes with the auction (which was great). Then the head of the shop corrected him and said that it was not listed, ( Read more... )

Well kind of new. I've been wanting to purchase a new electric guitar for some time now. The electric guitar I have been playing for several years now was a hand me down. It was given to me by my friend Harsha, who had the guitar in his basement as his old guitarist from his band had left it there for a couple years. I received it when I was 17 1/2 ( Read more... )

I posted a couple years ago about how many people had reoccurring dreams of me dying in a car accident. How enlightening. I think like 4-5 different people told me a few years ago that they had one (or more) dreams of this happening to me. My sister told me she had a dream about it this week. It kind of feels like the part in that movie Big Fish ( Read more... )

I was told upon coming into work today that our company would be offering to send us to one of the states we recently aquired a contract in. Specifically, Oregon. It would be for one or possibly several weeks in Oregon. Essentially, we would be training some of the retailers on the newer technologies and terminals that are being initiated in the ( Read more... )

So I kind of splurged a little. It is completely necessary, rest assured. I ordered this 28'' Viewsonic HD lcd monitor. It cost me a pretty penny, but its definitely worth it. I have been staring at both 15'' and 17'' CRT monitors for years now. The extreme change is pretty  amazing. I don't know how I went so long looking at the older monitors I ( Read more... )

I called my friend Joe at 7:05 monday. I just got off the Back Bay stop. I was supposed to have gotten off my stop sooner, but there was a train stuck in between one of the stops that prohibited us from proceeding to the last stop. I haven't been in Boston in a few months. We were meeting up to see Eels last tour, a band that I first heard in 7th ( Read more... )
