Forgive my lack of excitement....and keep me posted all youse guys that live North of the Mason/Dixon line....
I found out at 2 pm this afternoon that I have to do a business trip to Richmond Virginia Feb 7-10. Yeah...way to give me advance notice! So I spent all afternoon chasing down travel specifics so I could make my travel arrangements (cause nothing is EVER easy with the government...especially if you are a contractor and have to go through 5 extra levels of approvals and they change their mind every hour on what charge code to use....but I digress)
So anyways got all the paperwork in...and started planning all the other stuff...now I just have to worry about the weather. Not so worried about getting UP there (awww..sorry can't get in..have to postpone the meetings - AWWWW! ) It's the getting up there and getting SNOWED IN UP THERE! I am worried about...either not being able to fly OUT of Richmond...or fly INTO Hunstville because of weather....and this year...either is an equally dicey bad possibility!

^Damn! A little more notice and I would have TOTALLY volunteered to be your super-awesome travel buddy! I've always wanted to visit Richmond. Be careful! I will send powerful thoughts of pleasantly cold weather your way
Meg, thanks for the info! The Pioneer looks like it would be my choice, too I haven't had a fully-working stereo in.... 5 years O.o

Wow, the Hold Steady was AWESOME!!! (And Franz was great, but I did not miss his keys at all, if anything they rocked harder without him)
And Craig told us last night that it was the 8 year anniversary of the VERY 1ST SHOW they EVER played together... and where did they play that show?
At North 6th, the venue now known as the Music Hall of Williamsburg. Yup, last night was definitely extra special for all involved
Anyways, I borrowed this from the Hold Steady board, it is so on the money, haha
Brought a friend who had never heard THS or seen them and her reaction was: "wow! everyone loves this guy who looks like a math teacher, but he rocks so hard!"
I really hope they are on the Bonnaroo lineup this year
Has anyone ever visited the Kennedy Space Center? I'm thinking about taking the kiddo to Titusville to see the space shuttle launch on the 24th and thought about checking it out the day before or after. But admission is kind of expensive. Is it worth it?

^^^ If he is WAY into the subject, yes. Otherwise, not so much.
Psych ER psychotic quote of the night:
Patient: "I remember you, with your blue, smiling eyes. But there's no happiness. Happiness is a lie. It isn't real. If this is real, then give me a cigarette. I can see you've been crying 16 times. Ueythswothahi althhayeha ghaheyeghthght (speaking in tongues). Somebody gave me the WOOOOOOOOOOO!"
We're all a mess of paradoxes. Believing in things we know can't be true. We walk around carrying feelings too complicated and contradictory to express. But when it all becomes too big, and words aren't enough to help get it all out, there's always music.

Shuttle Launch? How awesome! Born and raised in Florida I have never been over to see the Shuttle launch. I live over 100 miles away and you can see it in the sky as it takes off (and hear it when it returns, the Sonic Boom sounds/feels like a truck hit your house). This is the last year for the Shuttle (I think 3 more launches) and I am going to see a launch! I went to KSC when I was younger. I loved it! That was a long time ago. As I kid at heart, I say take him, he will enjoy it. If not, Orlando is an hour away and has plenty of places to visit.

I wish I could see the launch!!!
I only said to weigh out how much he likes the subject because I took my eldest son when he was about 5 and all he wanted to do was play on the playground area there. And it is expensive if that's all they really get out of it.

Most def, if he is not into Rockets and such, than yeah, he will not enjoy it. If he has a little liking to that kind of stuff, then he will like it. Hell, I want to go to KSC right now. Yeah Angie, to see a launch is very cool, but to be able to feel it, now that is what I am talking about!
Just wanted to say how much Iron and Wine's new album is so amazing it spawned two babies named "Awe" &"Some"!!! Would rock Bonnaroo! Approved by Conan so it ain't Shit

I vote the one on the right. if you dress like the one on the left you won't be able to see anything and miss out on a lot. The one in the middle - you won't be able to sit comfortably because your friggin pants will be so tight.

Hey I am on the Medical Center side working, if I see anyone that looks like this I will just assume it is you But from the pic I would say the one in the middle would fit in the most..
And anyone who thinks different can just keep counting the covers of "Hunger Strike"...when no one is covering it anymore you can argue with me. AND...when YOU can hit those notes that CC hits...we'll chat ;D Until then...Shut the EFF up!!

well that was a weird roo dream last night. I was at the festy.. it was SUnday night.. but my friends pulled me away to go break into houses... at the festy there was a special section where there was an ice skating rink and performance show. Then as we ran back because i really wanted to see MMJ (who were closing out roo - which would never happen).. we got stuck in the long line of all the people who leave on sunday night.
went to a funeral for a really good friend and great guy (life of the party) this week. It sucks that as I'm over 50 this leno will be happening more and more.
we couldn't help but think how his service was so bland and didn't do justice to the kind of person that he was. He died suddenly leaving a wife and kids and I don't think anyone was really capable to help put anything together. a couple friends said afterward that they wanted to go ahead and start thinking about what they wanted done at their funerals to prevent such a clusterfck.
not quite ready to plan my own funeral yet but its food for thought. in the meantime, we'll miss you R.E. I never got you to go to Bonnaroo with me although you went to Wanee the last 2 years.
