Okay. Here I am. 24 years-old, full of paint, eating shells and cheese and watching the Saints play the Titans. It's a feeling ( Read more... )

So I'm sort of back on track now. It's been a really really tiring few weeks. I'll try and sum it up for, and I'll try and keep it pretty short.

MORE YMCAI'm feeling pretty comfortable here (yes, here. I am here now, not being busy on Labor Day. It's very nice, and time-and-a-half pay). I'm liking my role here more and more, although thtere's ( Read more... )

If you have some time, go to my band's myspace and take a listen to our new song. Let me know what you think. The song is tentatively named "We Pray The Garden."

It's been maybe 5 days since the automotive lifeline that is 35W had collapsed. I'm still pretty devastated, but thankfully no one I knew was directly effected physically. No one they know either. Being near the site, however, is pretty fücking weird (pardon my German). It's like a hole is in the middle of my city. I haven't kept up with all that ( Read more... )

So a highway I use often just collapsed in Minneapolis. I used to live by it, I used to run by it...hell, I drove under it maybe 10 minutes before it collapsed.

I haven't had such a pleasant Sunday since, well, football season. I woke up and went for a run (after a 3am night, mind you. That's not bad), downloaded music (specifically Ted Leo and Tokyo Police Club...I must rebuild!), ate Jimmy John's, went shopping for food, took a nap, made a turkey burger pizza with Kayla, and watched 2 hours of the ( Read more... )

I love casual Friday, and not because I can wear jeans (I wear jeans every day at work [is that a good thing {why don't I have a new job?}]). I like Friday's because I like to watch other people wear jeans. It's is a forced institution to wear jeans and look cas, even to the most uptiiiiiight suit ( Read more... )

Why is it so hard to get a job in this damn town?

Why did Planes Mistaken For Stars break up?

Why is Meatloaf so amazing?

After almost 5 years of walking, running, driving, and falling with my iPod, it finally bit the dust. Maybe it was because it was a first model, and couldn't keep up with current technology. Maybe it was because I left it out in the rain ( Read more... )

Yep, it has been a while. Between trips to the Boundary Waters and Tampa, long days at work, and short evenings, I'm not finding time to update this. Here are some foreshortened updates:

Tampa was plenty fun. The ride back was not. Check Dane's Music Store Memoirs soon for the full story.

I may be taking my cousin to the Warped Tour this year. I ( Read more... )
