A Good Day

Considering that the last few days have kind of sucked in many different ways, I'm quite happy to report that Monday was a great day. First of all, I had a wonderful weekend up in Seattle, which involved a very enjoyable concert, much drinking and good conversation, as well as no less than four bookstore visits and the purchasing of something like fifteen books, which is always good times. It doesn't get much better than buying book with near-wild abandon. I think I've mentioned before that I enjoy the written word.

What else is going on? Well, I must report that the new Hot Hot Heat album, which I finally picked up on Friday, is a fantastic CD. It's just fun as all hell, particularly the first couple songs and then a few more toward the middle, and I am greatly enjoying listening to it. Add in the fact that I've been having much love for Flogging Molly—a band I had been meaning to listen to for awhile now and finally got around to doing the last couple weeks—and, well, the music scene has been treating me just fine.

Finally, I topped off my stellar weekend with a great day that saw me picking up a ticket to a Hot Hot Heat show the first week in June for about $12.50, which is a very nice price, and then—oh, this is the topper—snagging myself tickets for an advance preview showing of Serenity on May 26th. Which is beyond fantastic, I'll tell you what.

What a great damn day.

Now if I could just get my computer working, all would be good. And perhaps I could get back into more consistent blogging.
