A post is in order to inform everyone that from here on out, every April 15th will be celebrated as:

Interntional Awkward DayThis stems from the fact that saturday was the single most awkward day I have ever experienced. Odd thing though, is that it wasn't so awkward for me personally. Unfortunately, I have a highly developed empathic sense for ( Read more... )

The weekend after next is shaping up to be one helluva few days. Felix is throwing a show/party in Auburn that I will absolutely not miss, even though it means I won't be seeing Mogwai in Nashville.
