It's been a while since I've updated this thing. It seemed like every time I tried to write something, I really didn't have anything to say. But at the request of a certain "Jersey boy" who regularly checks in on my life via LJ, here's a quick update as to what's happening in my life ( Read more... )

Like the crazy Wilco fanatic that I am, I was online at exactly 10am this morning, when the pre-sale began, to get tickets for their show at the Florida Theatre. I am now the proud owner of two tickets, eight rows from the front, right in the fucking center.

I have to go scream like a little girl now.

Thanks to April's recent post, I am now changing my mind and going to New York next month. It's been almost a year since my last visit and I'm having serious withdrawls now that I've seen her pictures. Oh well, it's just money, right? I'll get more....somehow ( Read more... )

I have done a very good job of saving money lately. First, Bank of America has this great program called "Keep the Change." Every time you use your debit card, they automatically round-up to the next dollar and transfer the "change" to your savings account. Plus, for the first three months they'll match you 100% (up to $250). Then the interest ( Read more... )

I was asked about a month ago to be one of the guest vocalists in Theatre Jacksonville's annual Valentine's cabaret show. It's a yearly fundraiser for the theatre and last year's event was amazing. It's a little pricey, but it's catered by all of the best restaurants in Jacksonville (Matthew's, Bistro Aix, etc.) and includes free champagne, wine ( Read more... )

I hate working. Is it too early to retire? How does one accomplish this at 25?

Special K with Red Berries. 'Nuff said.

Go watch Talking Heads' "Stop Making Sense" right now. You owe it to yourself.

I like having Penny around again. I'm going to be really sad when she leaves this weekend.

The Clap Your Hands show was unbelievable. I haven't had that much fun at a show in a looong time. I prepared myself to be confronted with Atlanta's snobbiest scene kids, but was pleasantly surprised. The place was packed with people who just like good music. It's so nice to be able to tell that a band is having just as much fun as the audience ( Read more... )

I really want my beard back. I hate shaving so much. Unfortunately, I won't feasibly be able to grow one until after the New Year. (Fucking Forever Plaid.....curses ( Read more... )

HBO has pissed me off this morning. They've cancelled my new favorite show "The Comeback," with Lisa Kudrow. That show was pure comedic genius and I guess I was always a little afraid it would be cancelled, but it's soooo good. What? Are they going to do the same thing with "Extras?" (...mumble...mumble..stupid....HBO....)

I have a performance of Forever Plaid on New Year's Eve again this year. I'm making some nice money doing it, but I'm also missing out on some fantastic shows happening everywhere, for example Clap Your Hands just announced a New Year's Eve show in New York. I had planned on going to NYC that weekend, but then realized I had this stupid show ( Read more... )
