I just saw a t-mobil comercial, and guess what the song was on it? G.love's baby's got sauce. i thought flamming lips on a comercial was bad, but G.Love on a comercial? what's next. it's petty, but this says so much to me about society.
and on the plate for tonight: courty's b-day dinner, and art openings

She kept making jokes about ballet, painting majors, and the word caucus. Brent thought she was high. I like to think it's just natural excitement for performing ( Read more... )

Last night we ended up at the Way Out club seeing the band Jamie put together, Bug. They weren't too bad, but the opening acts sucked. regardless it was really good to see live music, something i haven't made time for at all lately. I ran in to my friend Ellie there, who I worked with this summer at Laumeier, she's in grad school at Pratt, which ( Read more... )

As we are all legal now, we got pitchers of margaritas, then listened to old tapes of us singing to things like grease, and "knock three times" when we were tweleve...it was a good time. got up to bemidji, had a nice night with shannon and ( Read more... )
