Just got back from a film about Krautrock made by the lovely programmer from Alamo, (www.drafthouse.com) realized I haven't updated since the last big Alamo event with Kumar. Well, there was SXSW in there, saw Earlimart play a fun set. Other highlights were Ulrich Schnauss and Christoph Dientz and meeting some of Daniel's friends. Ida played a ( Read more... )

Since I was last detailing the many fine qualities of Austin life, I've basically done littel but appreciate Austin and get my first real paycheck. Kerry was down here for a really great weekend, we went to Toy Joy where I bought some presents for some Ohians, and a rainbow trout stapler for Kerry. We also picked up some weird Japanese monsters ( Read more... )

I could have condensed three micro-posts into one normal size post, but I'm subject to whimsy so too bad. Austin is tunring out to be really cool.

Well, I don't have a lease yet, but I'm here! It's 48 degrees out. Hurrah! Tomorrow I look at apartments.

I'm on my way over to Austin. I would post more, but I had waffle house for dinner. Why, God, why? There is a Japanese steak house right in front of my hotel.

So i drank half a liter of Bacardi (representing Puerto Rico of course) and stuff like that. Spent the weekend watching movies with Kerry. Twas quite rad. ( Read more... )

For me it is more to do with separating Church from State, but yeah, our constitution does not reference Christianity anywhere.

I did as well or better as I hoped on the 6 interviews I had today for this job in Austin. So I think I'll get an offer. My friend greg plays in a sort of math-rock pop almost jam band that I was able to watch tonight on sixth st. I haven't seen him perform since we were freshmen in college, so it was great to see him more loose and relaxed with ( Read more... )
