so, i saw ryan adams
Look, here’s proof, in the form of a bad photo that I removed a lot of digital noise from when I processed it, so now it’s really blurry, but that blob with the guitar? Ryan Adams. I saw him at the Ann Arbor Folk Festival. The reason I was at the Ann Arbor Folk Festival … Continue reading
the year in review (soundtrack version)
This year, to put it mildly, has not been my favorite. And as a final “Oh ha! Gotcha!” I’ve been writing this post and got a delightful message from WordPress that it had failed to save anything so it’s all gone and here I am, starting over. This makes me smile, because, well, it figures, … Continue reading

I’m home sick today with a form of plague that I caught merely because I was congratulating myself the other day for not having caught the plague despite said plague’s infestation among my coworkers, and that’ll teach me to be self-congratulatory. I mean, I also caught it because of germs. Germs: they know when you’re … Continue reading
it’s not too late
I went through a phase in my life where I was a bit in love with Jeff Buckley. And maybe I still am. A bit. It’s a thing. I have a copy of Grace sitting on top of a copy of Wilco’s A Ghost Is Born sitting on the edge of a bookshelf in my … Continue reading

My mom has a degree in theology, and I therefore spent a lot of time during my formative years having discussions about complex theological subjects (or, as I like to … Continue reading
ah, radiohead
I’ve spent all day at home today. I thought for awhile I might make it to work, but then I started throwing up and realized that um, I guess not. Man, puking is so fun. What an awesome way to kick off the week. Anyway, other than puking and streaming Netflix movies on my computer … Continue reading
of chris cornell and osama bin laden and chris cornell again (seattle, part 1)
So hey, I went to Seattle. See? This is me in Seattle: (I was at the top of the Space Needle, because it was a sunny day, so of course, and also I like fast elevator rides that make me feel a little bit like barfing.) It was a very quick trip to the west … Continue reading
deserves a quiet night
So many things happened that summer night when I was 15 and I remember all of them. There was a large group of us hanging out, and we took a bunch of people home, then went back out again. I failed driver’s ed that summer (I hadn’t yet learned that there were times when it … Continue reading
