Happy superDay! Sister #4 are gonna catch an early show of the movie that makes my heart go pitter pat. I feel like I should wear a Superman reveal t-shirt or something in honor of the day, but then I thought that might be kinda dorky. Sort of like wearing a Journey t-shirt to a [...]
Pete Scholtes over at City Pages, linked to the Trees Lounge 50 States: July 4th Compilation, and it’s pretty rad. 89.3 the Current did something like this last year on the 4th of July. Seeing all the Minnesota songs is cool, there were tons on there I’d never heard of. Though they didn’t include two [...]
Would you rather have the number of comments appear after each entry on iwilldare.com or would you rather keep the ‘Recently Dared’ section, because apparently we can’t have both anymore.
I pity the people who have had to drive alongside of me the past week or so. I am sure, were they to look over at the tall girl in the ruby-red truck they’d have thought something was seriously wrong, and with good reason. I’ve been listening to The Wedding by Nicholas Sparks and it [...]
The only people I can come close to not killing today are Jeff Tweedy and Colin Meloy, everyone else I want to maim in my sleep-deprived zombie-like state.
Holy shit I want a do-over. Yesterday passed in a blink of busyness, traffic, and utter futility. Of course it wasn’t so bad because I got to spend a good chunk of quality time (we’re talking like five hours) with Kelly. But still, I want my time back. We wasted our Tuesday evening attending a [...]
Saturday, I attended a gathering of localish Westernerds at Wolfdogg’s house in St. Paul. It was, of course, great gobs of fun. But what do you really expect when you gather together a few handfuls of musicgeeks (and I am like the ungeekiest of this bunch) add some of the best damn strawberry margaritas ever [...]
I get no joy out of being responsible. It seems that fun is always compromised for the sake of being responsible. Someone who gets a kickass Superman birthday cake should not have to be responsible. I made this decision about 10 minutes ago when I had to turn down FREE Elvis Costello tickets in the [...]
Today I get to spend a goodly part of my day working on advertising. It’s the most challenging part of my job and kind of gives me a little bit of the heart palpitations because the deadlines are usually insane. I just spent an hour on the phone with my Canuckian designer who always seems [...]
On the Sex Appeal of Paul Westerberg
A Modern Dance piece done to the tune of “True Dreams of Wichita” (thanks wes).
So I’ve spent the greater part of the afternoon watching VH1 Classics. Not that it was all that painful, I can rock it to Warrant, White Lion, and White Snake just as much as the next person. But right now they’re playing the video for “Bastards of Young.” It’s making me all smiley and giggly [...]

My new favorite treat are juicy and delicious Pink Lady apples. I like the snap from my teeth crunching into its pink yumminess. However, I may have to give up the apples or cut off my breasts. It seems that without fail whenever I eat an apple, it drips apple spooj all over the front [...]
The ‘Mats’ “Bastards of Young” just came on Kathleen Turner Overdrive and I was sucked into some time-space wormhole right back to 1996. I’m not sure where this memory came from. But it has attacked my brain with a suddeness that takes my breath away. I think it was 1996, but I can’t quite remember. [...]
