I'm at Toyota today, preparing to spend far more money than is likely necessary, just to keep my car on the up-and-up.

The only thing making this even remotely palatable is the fact that I've got Chopin playing on the touch, a mug full of hot coffee from home and there is free - and decently fast - wifi for customers to use.s

Sarah and I have our first dog-free weekend in who knows how long, and this is how I start the day...sitting in a cramped waiting room on a stiff chair, hoping that everything checks out on my car and I don't have to spend more than I'm expecting.

I forgot how much I enjoyed The Anniversary. [eom]

Seriously. How did I forget how much I loved Royal City? Alone at the Microphone is probably one of the only albums I was glad to have bought off of iTunes (well, that and their other one, and the Volcano! I'm Still Excited album).

If you haven't ever had the pleasure of hearing these indie-rock-cum-Neil-Young-vocals Canadian badasses yet...fire up your favorite method of acquiring music and get to it.

Sarah's not home yet, and Brent keeps txting me about how hard COD2 is, and I still feel like my head is going to pop. blah.

I just bought tickets to see Mates of State! June 11th! Granada! !!!!!

I'm in San Francisco again. And I'm tired.

Peace out.

I'm still feeling pretty run over, but this morning has started off quite well. I get to spend the day buried in Syslog/Rsyslog goodness (which I actually enjoy), and to top it off, my Google Mini just arrived (w0000t!). If that wasn't enough, "Velvet Alley" by Strung Out just came up on my iPod...it's looking good so far.
