Score!

January 28, 2009

Yesterday I finally got the melodica I’ve been wanting for months now (which provided me with hours on fun once I got home). AND I wandered into a record shop down the street from the musical instrument store and they had The Queen is Dead by the Smiths on vinyl, in really good condition.

Thanks universe!

“hey you with the pretty face, welcome to the human race”

September 19, 2008

Had to go to the SF campus this morning for a slightly soul-crushing meeting. It wasn’t that bad, but it just reminded me of issues I’ve had at work and things I’ve tried to bury but am still pretty bitter about. So I got in the car afterwards and blasted Electric Light Orchestra on the stereo because I think it might actually be impossible to feel sad when it’s a beautiful day outside and “Mr. Blue Sky” is playing.
