keep it like a secret

Not a bad night. wndc at aiko pretty much blew, teddy and I paid five bucks to get in, four for a beer, and left w/n ten minutes. That freed up my evening for the great lake swimmers & centro-matic show at the earl. It was really good. Will Johnson's voice is just cool as hell and patterson hood would never lie to me. I even got to see will do one of his 'appliance dances', the toaster...I'm totally stealing it. Their t-shirts were only eight bucks too [and we all know how many more band shirts i need], but, alas, they only had s & xl. A really nice night, I think I'm a fan of going to shows by myself. It's nice not having to worry about whoever I drag along to hear some band they've never heard of and I don't even notice anyone else when the band is playing. I'm totally cool w/ drinking a pbr and chilling by myself during set changes. There's always the chance to meet other people as weird as I am as well. Taking jennifer to the...

My shower and I have this game that we play: I do everything that I can think of to keep the water from leaking all over the floor while I shower and it finds a way to get it wet regardless. I haven't discovered any correlation b/n what I do when it leaks and what I do when it doesn't. I had the lead for a while but the shower has really turned it on lately. I wonder what we're playing to... postscript i - I've got ucla and florida in the final four. Yeager has lsu and george mason [wtf?]. The eleven years of 'here, have some of micah's money' could be drawing to a close this weekend. Oh, and I'm winning all three 'regular' pools that I entered, so I've got that going for me. Why didn't I bet on any of those?! The answer, or course, is because if I did all of my picks would have lost on the first weekend. postscript ii - Check out band of horses [everything all the time]...anyone want to be my 'photographer' at a show at th...

ucla, i think i love you Good night of a few good friends and some randoms. Lunch w/ jessica tomorrow should be really nice. the twelve year losing streak ends this year!

I just realized who Katherine Lindsey is. I can't believe that. I only met her a few times but I could tell how great a girl she was. Life is so fragile, crazy, beautiful. I am always amazed how the Lord shows his plan in the deaths of those that we love. Just looking back on recent events and posts and stuff you can see how everything is meant to be. It's just crazy. Why does this stuff happen? I can't believe it. Postscript: after talking to Lauren it is unbelievably amazing how the Lord works. It was definitely Katlind's time, I have never heard of anything like this. unbelievable

I had a dream last night that Josh and I were riding around some town w/ my mom and she was exacting revenge like she was straight out of kill bill or something. She would do stuff like shoot a dude in the head [it would explode everywhere w/ way more blood than a head can hold - like the movie] and then she'd just sit down right in some nearby chair that had totally gotten soaked in the dude's blood. I don't really remember her having any kind of special ninja moves, but I'm sure they were in there. I do remember her bad-ass attitude though, that was hardcore. After the killing spree, we all went back to my really cool loft apartment in the city and hung out on my rooftop deck. A bunch of my friends were already up there hanging out, they must've had a key. Daya was there with her boyfriend though, so that kind of broke my 'dream heart'. It had to be somewhere out west or something. - I'm seriously thinking about heading back to tech for a masters...

I want to be rob gordon. I'm probably half-way there already, not sure if that's a good or bad thing...

Friday night: Met everyone at park tavern for dinner, drinks, and games. I then headed to the highlands w/ Chris Wilson [yeah, I thought he was dead too], James, and some other folks. Long story short, I ended up getting left, walking/running to loca luna to meet some friends, then walking home. I'm not sure if my friends straight left me or if there was a communication breakdown but I guess I did knock out like eight miles that day since I ran that morning too. Good night last night. I met tatum and her sister at hole in the wall...not my idea, but it was fun anyway. I saw quite a few other people that I knew there as well. I didn't think people went there, but I guess that's just me. Everyone else went to northside tavern, so that would've been fun too. I just hate paying a ten dollar cover charge to go to a place that's free and still just as cool during the week. I guess I just like to get out and put myself in the position to meet new people too. choi...

Alright, let's take a look at the casualties after the first round of games: 4 - kansas 5 - nevada 6 - michigan state 9 - uab 11 - san diego state 11 - southern illinois 13 - air force 15 - winthrop 15 - davidson 16 - oral roberts Man I suck at this thing, my high seeds get upset and my low seeds just miss pulling off the upsets

lollapalooza 2006 :: august 4th - 6th :: chicago's grant park weekend of rock, anyone? That'd be a great trip.

It's that time of the year...march madness. That means that it's time for the 12th annual 'middle school pick 'em'. I'm meeting up w/ yeager, joe, and james to do what we've been doing since the seventh grade. And we're meeting at zaxby's [one perk of the suburbs]. I'm the only one who's never won, but I've got a feeling this is my year, plus the law of averages can only screw one person for so long. Delicious food, old friends, talking crap, and betting on sports. I think that's about as good as it gets, w/o getting ridiculous. - update later - Alright, I know no one cares but I figure I'll keep track of my teams on here for my own purposes. I made some stupid ass/brilliant picks: 2 - ucla 3 - florida 4 - kansas 4 - boston college 5 - nevada 6 - michigan state 7 - wichita state 9 - uab 10 - alabama 11 - san diego state 11 - southern illinois 13 - air force 14 - northwestern state 15 - winthrop 15 - davidson 16 - oral roberts...

I've got health insurance! Bring on the dangerous stuff! I don't think it kicks in for a few days though, so no one needs to hurt me just yet.

Last night I dreamt that I was at a bar but everytime that I tried to play spoon on the jukebox that someone would change the song as soon as I walked into the other room. What's up w/ that? How can you not enjoy some spoon at any point in your waking life, much less when you're hanging out at a bar and drinking w/ some friends? people...

What an awesome title for a rock song. Man, I love dbt. They've got it all. It's just dirty, rowdy, heartfelt southern rock. Anyway... Mondays are weird. I always feel like a slacker b/c everyone else is at work and I'm not, even though I work Saturdays and I went into the shop for a few hours today and did some freelance stuff. I guess it's just me. Such beautiful weather, it seems like the weather's been pretty much awesome for the past month or so. Pretty good weekend. Friday night we checked out Front Page News in midtown. It was pretty cool, I just miss the good ol' days when everyone else would get a little crazy, seems like they're all so chill now. I guess that's how it is when you get in a relationship though, so that's good for them. I guess I feel like having a girlfriend doesn't really change the way I act that much, but maybe it does. I'll work on them though, now that even more of us are in the city. Saturday was an ...

I hate it when a girl gets in your head, even when she shouldn't be. I just want to know what's up, but I should know by now that there's no sense to be made when it comes to them. Anyway, I got a haircut today [so everyone can quit their whining]. The whole aveda institute plan sort of failed though...a dude cut my hair. One of the best things about going there is that you have like a 99.99% chance of getting your hair cut by a young, cute girl. Not today. He did the whole shampoo and conditioner thing too. Thankfully he didn't do the neck massage. So now I look like a little kid as opposed to a hippie, which I'm sure is an improvement to some. I need to research some graduate school opportunities around Atlanta, I'm getting a little bit of that 'spinning the wheels' feeling again. - keep moving -

I want to go to nashville for the new pornographers/belle & sebastian show on march 8th. They should've come through atlanta. Who's up for a road trip?
