And so. I went to interview Ezra today. Conclusions: I was a fucking weird kid in high school. I like to hang out with Ezra though. Hung out with Ofer for the first time in ever, also. Watched the end of the world cup at his house, which was pretty exciting. I kind of wish I'd gotten into it. Anyway, a headbutt and a trip to Pita Inn later, ( Read more... )

1. A lamp fell on my face this morning. Wind from outside through the open windows pushed the blinds forward knocked over a lamp ONTO MY FACE. It hit me right where the nose meets the cheek and now I have a bruise there ( Read more... )

So.  Guy who gave me a freelance writing job then never emailed me back has emailed me back.

Hi Catherine,

Sorry for the delay the last half of the month is crazy with magazine production and print.  We are looking for writing on local bands reviews or features on upcoming shows.  Also, I'm looking for a writer that would want to do an "artist of the ( Read more... )

So, as promised:

Saturday
Got there early so I saw just about everyone (with the exception of the metal bands, I skip the metal bands).  The hip-hop performances were some of the best, and on Sunday too, I was really pleased with them.  I like the line-up on Saturday better than on Sunday.  My favorite bands were Jose Gonzalez, Chromeo, Ghostface ( Read more... )

Stomach hurts and I'm angry at my father. Intonation was excellent. I'll tell you all about it when I don't feel like shit.

Intonation is this weekend, I'm starting to mentally prepare. Festivals, in general, are really overstimulating to me. Lots of noise lots of people, I feel kind of lost in it all. I'm mostly okay while I'm there but it kind of takes me a couple of days to recover after. My sister will be coming with me, though, which is both awesome and ( Read more... )

I broke down and bought comic books I couldn't afford. Ultimate X-Men and Bruce Wayne: Murderer? The second of which I'll hopefully be passing on to Harper soon. I read Ultimate X-Men on the way home from an interview in the city today. Why couldn't somebody have made a movie about that? Wolverine and Jean Gray bone ( Read more... )

My music collection is still sort of displaced and some of it seems to be kind of missing. I'm not sure where 50 Cent went, but I kinda want him back ( Read more... )

My second review is up on Everythingrock, of Languis' new EP Other Desert CitiesI have managed to displace/fuck-up my entire music collection. I'm gonna spend tonight fixin' it ( Read more... )

Finished up last weekend with a Monday-Night trip to Improv Olympics in Chicago (which is apparently converting to just I.O. now because I guess the real Olympics sued or something). Very funny. I need to get out and do more things. Problem with that is everything to do is in Chicago, not in po-dunk. Oh well. I can always get Harper and her ( Read more... )
