III. Good night


Well, it's time for bed, I have a busy day tomorrow. Road Test! In Seneca Falls! It almost feels like 1848! Anyway... Thanks Ms. Capponi.

Final comments.

Life has been good lately. I just wanted to let you all know. It's really nice, after some hard times. Thank you to all my friends out there.

II. Something Extraordinary

Amazing... The White Stripes live in Detroit. They're from Detroit. The last show of their 2005 American tour. Meg. Jack. Pandemonium. I wish you could be there, because this is certainly going to be a life-changing event for all involved.
I know you're sad, but you'll get by. There will be other shows. But there's something special about this one.If I'm lucky, I'll get to see one of these, maybe even own one! Made exclusively for the fans of The White Stripes, these 3" record players and matching singles are so hot, only dozens know they exist! It will be mine, oh yes, it will be mine ;)

This is just my excuse to get Jack on my blog.


I'm really looking forward to the show (I'm a little obsessed, and you should be too). More pictures (from Detroit '05!) to come.

I. Finally...


An update! On this blog updates mean photos, even if they aren't relevant at all. The more pointless the picture is, the better the entry in many cases. And I never fail to please...

Check out his shirt! Fabulous hehe...

R.I.P. my friend.

So it's been two weeks or so... A lot has happened. I'm still listening to Pink Floyd almost exclusively. That is soon to change, however, because... Something special is coming up!

Atom Heart Mother


This is one of the better album covers/titles I've seen lately. Even though it's from 1970, I've recently been introduced.

"The Amazing Pudding" was the original name, which is good as well. Before the album was released, the band came across the newspaper headline "ATOM HEART MOTHER." The article was about a pregnant woman with an atomic pacemaker. Pretty cool...

As for the album cover, the original vinyl didn't have any text that gave away the artist or title. The band request 'something plain' for the cover because they didn't want to be associated with any particular image or style.

So there you go, a cow. I've been listening to Pink Floyd way to much lately.

School's going well enough. I've decided to drop Greek (language). I took it for fun and it was taking up too much time. I have some other really demanding classes this semester that take priority.

Rant: $165 for the books for one course. Asinine.

Anyway, back to studying for math.

New Week

Well, after a great weekend, it's been a little hard getting back into things here at SU. My math teacher let us out on time (a first). I got my first Greek lang quiz back (91!). I bought a man purse. Ha ha. I got tired of carrying my books around without a proper enclosure.

Mine is like that one; only not. Mine is brown, has more pockets and is from the coolest store in town. I like it and the price was right.

I have beaucoup beaucoup work to do, so I'm going to start before I spend an hour checking my email and visiting the sites worthy of my daily viewing. So long.

Weird Weekend

Well, this weekend was weird.

Saturday:

I took my 5-hour course, which wasn't that bad. I finally scheduled a date for my road test. Sept. 30th... much too far away. I got really mad about that whole ordeal.

I'm just trying to forget, and I get an e-mail.

Sunday:

Blah... It got better as the day went on.


It's good to be back I suppose. Tomorrow should be productive.
