Tuesday was Northwestern’s A&O Ball… something I never went to when I was in school (they never had bands I liked). This year, the guest was Guster. El’s roommate’s boyfriend really really likes them so we all went. It was at the Riviera.
I scored a spiffy spot about a block away and […]
Netflix: The Saddest Music in the World
I just netflixed this after reading about it on Chicagoist. I love the love hate reviews on the Netflix page… I’ll post about it after I see it.

The Onion AV Club has an interview with Decemberists’ frontman Colin Meloy in this week’s feature… Seemed apropos to link after seeing ‘em last Thursday.

It has 985 pieces (many of them tiny). […]

Current tune: only select ‘Upload current tune file’
Recent tune: deselect upload recent tunes file
Upload file: select HTTP Get. […]
El and I went to see the Decemberists at the Metro last Thursday. I managed to get a dark chocolate (by that I mean semi sweet) parking space outside Heaven on Seven… not amazing, but free.
The opening band was Okkervil River whose latest album is evidently very good, according to PopMatters. I have […]
So, the sideblog on Bull and Bunny is working again… which would be totally spiffy except I didn’t touch anything. So this is a case of technology spontaneously working. See, Wordpress hasn’t updated… neither has Magpie… and yet it works. Fingers crossed that it’ll keep working…
Cooking for Engineers
Could this be my new 4 ingredient cookbook??? The graphs look really sweet…
Oh, and I’m feeling better… thanks for all the email!
