apparently the breaking news i was talking about last night ended in a murder suicide. i wish there were more details.

again, i cannot sleep.
everytime i cannot sleep i got into a mini panic attack remembering how i didn’t sleep through most of december and what a wretched ordeal that was. so the longer i lay in bed awake, the more i panic, the more i can’t sleep. it’s a silly cycle, i know. but it [...]

ahhh, ol’ harry. he’s a babe and he can sing. what’s not to dig? i love his old-timey sounding love songs. they make me all schmoopy inside. of course, he’s totally mood music. you gotta be in a certain mood to listen to harry. but it’s not bad background for dinner party type stuff. all [...]

i bought this for one song, “sonny came home.” i don’t think i ever listened to it before now. no reason to keep it at all. it’s up for grab. if’n you want it, let me know and it’s yours.

look at the stars, look how they shine for you. . .
i just love this cd. i am a sucker for the singersongwriter, guitar kinda sound. i like singing along with this cd. it makes me all bittersweet and smiley.

another college band. they played UWEC all the damn time and kicked major ass. i freaked out when i hear them on the radio one day, a few years back. it’s nice to see some wisconsin boys doing good. they totally deserve it.

this is the only cd i have by ms. chapman. i think fast car is one of the best singalong in the car songs ever. the whole cd is really quite good. but didn’t inspire me enough to seek out other releases.
yeah, tonight i am lame. deal with it.

i am keeping this cd, even though it pisses me off to no end.
i love johnny. he kicks some serious ass. but whomever released this lame-ass version of his best of cd decided it was a good idea to edit out the word fuck in the song “boy named sue.” yeah, it blows major [...]

i bought this cd because the song “going the distance” reminds me of a band i used to see all the time in college. the band was called yellow #5 once and then changed their name to touch is automatic.
cute brandon was the drummer in that band. i always called him cute brandon. he [...]

i bought this one on a spur-of-the-moment buying frenzy based on an amazon.com recommendation. it was a success. kinda alt-country stuff ala wilco. i dig it muchly.

jeff buckley’s voice makes me want to have sex. doesn’t matter what he’s singing or that his songs can break your heart right into two pieces and insure it’ll never be back together again.
regardless of what he’s saying buckley, to me, sounds like sex. sadly, i only got to listen to two out of three [...]

things you don’t want to hear when the 10 o’clock news comes on.
“First we have breaking news out of Prior Lake.”
wtf?
prior lake? nothing happens in prior lake. i live here. it’s nice, safe, breaking news shouldn’t be coming out of prior lake, that’s just against the rules.
apparently some homes have been evacuated because there’s a [...]

i’m a busy bee, smug marrieds is up on the non-naughty side of backwash.

A sucker for Ben is up on the naughty side of backwash if you’d like to read it (and it’s not about that ben).

i carry around 3 different bags generally. not all at the same time, but on different occassions. tonight i decided to clean them out. i collected $5.19 in change. pure change. things will be much lighter now and no more jangling.
