Thank you for being a friend
Dear Friends,
As you know, I recently graduated and, after a period of unemployment, began working again. Now that I have a grasp on what my income will be, what my student loan payments will be, and the like, I’ve had time to take a good hard look at my finances.

Freaky Friday

I am watching the saddest thing right now. Joaquin Phoenix is on David Letterman, and he's totally fucked out of his head. He can't even maintain any semblance of a reasonable interview. Furthermore, the last time I saw him, he was hot (see fig. 1). Now he looks terrible (see fig. 2) and is totally incoherent and disturbing. It's like watching ( Read more... ) -

A night like last night takes me back to when I fell in love with music in the first place.
It feels good. And so do I, for the first time in some time.
