I Like 3 Day Weekends
I hope everyone had a nice weekend. Cos I didn't.
Moving SUCKS, even when it's right next door. I spent the majority of the weekend going through boxes and bags in our new garage/practise space/recording studio. It has become painfully apparent that The Old Lady still loves holding on to EVERY SINGLE CATALOGUE she's ever been sent. However, it's about 80% done and looking pretty freakin' cool. The huge white sheet for the slide projector is the piece de resistance, though - looking at an enormous Audrey Hepburn projection when yer practising is nothing short of inspirational.
And thanks to the 3Bulls! post from last week, I saw the video for and heard M. Ward's "Chinese Translation" for the very first time. To say it blew my mind would be an understatement. I immediately ran to Mod Lang and bought the album (BTW - Mod Lang is now about 5 blocks from my house, which is great for my ears and bad for my wallet) and couldn't be more pleased. I highly recommend it.

Moving sucks so hard. We are moving to a new apartment in the same complex at the end of October. So we're really only moving across the parking lot, but still....I don't wanna mooooooovvvvveeee!! I doubleplushate moving.
I have now lived in the same place for 2 and a half years. ahhhhh. I fully expect to be here in 5 more.
I don't even have packing boxes anymore, unless you count the dozen or so I still haven't unpacked.
Oh man, we need to pork snorkel up by you again and hit ML.
I'm a pack rat too. It is an annoying habit.
Pop, have I told you lately how much I love that you are back?!!
I hate moving too. After this last move, that involved THREE houses, I quit. AG refuses to own anything other than property and maybe UC (sssh, he thinks he's a free agent) anymore!
M. Ward. Yeah, I'd hit it.
res: somehow moving across the fucking state is easier than moving across the parking lot. and it ain't right.
mdhatter: then come over and help us throw shit out.
pinko: i thought i was a pack rat til i met The Old Lady. she has junk mail from when we met.
ag: baby, come give me some sugar while UC ain't lookin'. and i'll tell you what - i wouldn't complain if i actually owned this place.
teh: why is that not a surprise? you just wanna do him then have him sing you to sleep.
I want to be in on that pork snorkel. DC is turning up a surprising lack of snorkability and musicalness.
