I'd love to update this often, but an object at rest stays at rest.  I'm developing plans to majorly ramp up my blogging activity in the future, so be on the lookout for that.

Volunteered at the Pitchfork Music Festival over the weekend.  I am now a champ at putting wristbands on people.  I can't decide what was the best part about volunteering: the free water, the free ice cream, the access to the VIP area toilets, the free Chipotle, or seeing The New Pornographers for free.

I also came away with two awesome band names: ( Read more... )

Jesus Camp - This would be an interesting ( Read more... )
