Yelled at 8-months-pregnant Al, the cutest girl on earth™, for making us late to her surprise baby shower

Hi. For the first time in my entire life I just shuffled past “I Will Dare” when it came up on Eurydice. If I get hit by a taxicab today, you’ll know why.

OH HELL YES

These are the things that stink:
1. That I forgot to sync Eurydice and therefore do not have the new Weakerthans album to listen to
2. Allergies
3. My feet
4. The fact that my hair is sticky because I didn’t rinse out all the conditioner
X. My breath, it was Onion Ring day here at Hell, Inc.

Are you wondering what to do when the Canucks piss you off before you have even finished your first cup of coffee?
Here’s what you do, you turn on The Donna’s cover of “Wig Wam Bam” (it’s better than Sweet’s because it contains the words ‘you make me cream in my jeans’ and that’s just [...]

Does anyone else find it ironic that on Amazon’s NEW mp3 Download service the #1 song is Feist’s “1234″ (which is the song from the new iPod Nano commercials)?

Didn’t get to see Paul Westerberg at First Ave on Sunday? You can ch-ch-check out a video of Let the Bad Times Roll from the event over at Paul Westerberg.net

Sure, I’m gonna be late for work. But some things must be shared immediately. I was just perusing Reveille and learned that Andrew Bird is gonna open for Wilco on October 10.
HOLY SHIT! Andrew Bird + Jeff Tweedy in one night? I am not sure if my heart can handle that. As you well [...]

The thing I liked the best about last night’s Paul Westerberg The Craft talk/performance at First Avenue in Minneapolis, was when Westerberg and Zanes (the interviewer from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame) talked a bit about the fans.
I guess in some magazine interview Westerberg had referred to his fans as a fistful [...]

Tod Goldberg offers new rules for the writing workshops he teaches. I am thinking of printing it out and handing it out to my classmates.

I am babysitting Max today. Jaycie and Sister #2 have to go on some hike at Camp Singing Hills and Stink has class. So it’s just me and Max. Which is always, always, always interesting. So far I have learned:

Max is learning cursive in school
There are all-new super secret Webkins coming out soon
However, Max cannot [...]

Going to the Paul Westerberg The Craft show at First Ave Sunday? Come hang with the Westernerds before hand.

“I read that because I heard you were going to be here,” Joshua Furst the author of the absolutely wonderful (and challenging in a good way all books should challenge you) The Sabotage Cafe said.
“Where’d you hear that?” I asked because I should not be allowed to talk to total strangers.
“Oh,” he smiled. “From my [...]

I got tickets to the Mike Doughty show at Bryant Lake Bowl. Did you?
My new fiction class started last night and I have roughly 39,193 things to say about it, later
It is really very cold in here and I keep sneezing
OH MY GOD, Sunday is Paul Westerberg day
Tonight at 7 p.m. at The Loft Joshua [...]

My sisters say I am not pimping hard enough. Vote for me in HP’s writing contest. Pretty please?
