Goose, work, beer & travel plans

Wednesday, April 2nd, 2008

OK, it’s been a bit since my last post, here’s what I’ve been up to:

Kelly and I have been to the Goose Hollow Inn a couple weekends in a row, first just Kelly and I, a second time with our friends T & Aymie and Miranda. Good lord I love their reuben sandwich. Mmmmmm….
Had an [...]

Dramatic Lemur

Thursday, March 20th, 2008

For those that remember Dramatic Chipmunk (that’s not really a chipmunk) comes another fine bit of web junk… Dramatic Lemur (requires sound for full effect).

You’re welcome.

End of the week & Bon Iver

Friday, March 14th, 2008

Last night I was out with my brothers at Moon & Sixpence for some beers and dinner. Fortunately I got home at a reasonable hour, though I still ended getting to work late this morning, however it had nothing to do with last night. Kelly took today off from work (tomorrow is her last day [...]

Mash Tun, and a quick recap

Wednesday, March 12th, 2008

Met my good friend JB at the Mash Tun tonight after work. It’d been a bit since we last caught up, and had a good time hanging out, and I greatly enjoyed sipping on the cream ale the Tun is still pouring. I asked the server (nice fella named Tim) whether he knew if they [...]

NIN: Ghosts I-IV

Friday, March 7th, 2008

Today I bought the new NIN album, Ghosts, an instrumental album that was suddenly released last weekend now that Trent Reznor is a free agent, finally out of his contract with Interscope Records. He’s offering the album up in the following kick-ass options:

FREE: The first quarter of the album (Ghosts I) to download
$5: All 36 [...]

Long week, good weekend, Legend

Sunday, March 2nd, 2008

Since last weekend’s adventures, I had another long and fairly stressful work week. The weekend was pretty fun though, despite two things: 1) a possible resurgence of some sort of virus (sinus pressure, a sore throat and a cough, dammit), and 2) a friend coming into town on Friday (I say friend, though he’s a [...]

Sicky

Sunday, February 17th, 2008

Still feeing a bit ill, though it’s not as bad as it could be. I think I’m either fighting it off successfully, or I didn’t get the same flu that many of my coworkers had gotten. The symptoms are a dull headache, sore throat and nasal congestion (pretty light on all three), a slight cough, [...]

You see it?

Friday, February 15th, 2008

So a few weeks ago when the news of Heath Leger’s death hit the interwebs, and the news of whatever oddness between he, the maid, and Mary-Kate Olsen surfaced, ABC News.com posted a photo of Heath and MK side by side. I saw the photo and immediately thought of how creepy MK looked, and how [...]

A Good Saturday

Saturday, February 9th, 2008

Last night Kelly and I had a night in. She made turkey lasagna and garlic bread, and we watched Sunshine, which I liked quite a bit.
Kelly had class today, so I slept in a bit, waking up at around 8:30am (yup, that’s sleeping in for me now, urgh). After spending a little bit of time [...]

Louis XIV and Editors

Wednesday, February 6th, 2008

Tonight Kelly and I went to see the Editors show at Roseland, with Louis XIV opening. After I left the office I met Kelly at Shanghai Tunnel, which turned out to be less than great. The bartender woman was in an obviously foul mood and made no attempt to be even superficially friendly. And despite [...]
