Empire Falls

You should definitely take the time to watch Empire Falls on HBO... especially if you like Ed Harris. I might just have to read the book now.

The Johnsons

Congratulations Adam and Elizabeth!

Phish - Waste

Don't want to be an actor pretending on the stage
Don't want to be a writer with my thoughts out on the page
Don't want to be a painter 'cause everyone comes to look
Don't want to be anything where my life's an open book

A dream it's true
But I'd see it through
If I could be
Wasting my time with you

Don't want to be a farmer working in the sun
Don't want to be an outlaw always on the run
Don't want to be a climber reaching for the top
Don't want to be anything where I don't know when to stop

A dream it's true
But I'd see it through
If I could be
Wasting my time with you

So if I'm inside your head
Don't believe what you might have read
You'll see what I might have said
To hear it

Come waste your time with me
Come waste your time with me

So if I'm inside your head
Don't believe what you might have read
You'll see what I might have said
To hear it

Come waste your time with me
Come waste your time with me
Come waste your time with me
Come waste your time with me

Come waste your time with me

time for a list!

I've spent a lot of time ripping my CDs to put on my iPod. You can see what I've got here... there's also a little link to your right. Most of my stuff is from CDs that I own... all of my random-unauthorized-downloaded music from the college years has been trashed. I know I'm missing a lot of stuff, but it's a good starting point. =)

iPod

I am officially addicted to my new iPod.

I can listen in a bar, I can listen in my car.
I can listen while on duty, I can listen and shake my booty.

Hallelujah

... our water was finally turned on sometime last night while we were at trivia. Let's hope they don't royally screw everything up again!

haha!

I needed a good laugh after I read this!

Thank you Barry!

... for going with me to see The Black Crowes last night. It was good times!

Last minute Summer plans...

and you thought my summer was just going to be filled with bowling and Braves games. Just got a call today... I've been offered a Summer internship with the Atlanta Urban Design Commission! This means I can graduate in Spring of 06 instead of Summer of 06, yay! More details to come after a meeting on Monday...

more Random Music Trivia

This week Coldplay's single Speed of Sound has become the first single from a UK group, since The Beatles, to enter the Billboard Top Ten singles chart in its debut week. It hit the chart at #8.

The Beatles did it 4 times...
Hey Jude (#10 in 1968)
Get Back (#10 in 1969)
Let it Be (#6 in 1970)
Free as a Bird (#10 in 1995)

(also unrelated to The Beatles... Gwen Stefani's Hollaback Girl topped Billboard's Hot 100 chart ending more than two months of 50 Cent's Candy Shop being #1. Yayy!)

Update

Well, I put off this last bit of school work as long as humanly possible, as usual. Friday, I went to see The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy with Barry and Heiko (it was entertaining)... Saturday, went to Lisa's parents house for a cookout with the wedding party (Barry is a groomsman in David and Lisa's wedding)... Saturday night, went to a party at Heiko's condo at the fabulous Peachtree Walk in Midtown (where GB Kenny used to live, "Are you gay or just living in Midtown?")... and today marks an end to socializing. I probably will not be doing anything "fun" until my birthday (!) Thursday. I might even have to miss music trivia (gasp)

oh, and Eduardo DeMarco*... best name ever!
