oh, for more on the show, you can check out some reviews here. i felt the same about them for the most part, and just feel sad that the crowd was how it was.

! clapped during 'tinfoil'!! Didn't you see me?

sigh.

it's a magical world

hey!
for all you dave berry fan's out there, look what i found!

it's been a eventful week to be sure. i've gotten fairly comfortable in this part of the world that i inhabit. trying not to stress out about much. it's pretty tough. my classes continue to go well. i've gotten to know a few folks. I've been really surprising myself with how social and fairly confident i've become. this is exactly where i need to be! so much fun. too much to relate in one post.

i'm half thinking about becoming a college professor. Now as much as that sounds specific, it's really not. I have no idea what that means when i say that's "what i want to be". But it's something. Though quite faceless and even formless. but it came to me so strongly, i could not ignore it.

the rainer maria show was fantastic. ran into one of luke good's friends who lives right by UPitt there. the show really was so much fun though, perhaps because i hadn't been to one in so long or perhaps because they were really so energetic! they looked really happy to be there, even though the crowd wasn't completely sold on them. They encored with "tinfoil". I was pumped.

friday night i went down to the waterfront with a bunch of folks. We went to the "improv" and saw mitch hedberg. i was unreal. there is no other way to put it. there's no way i've laughed so much in my entire life. time was non-existant. who knew that comedians could actually be funny. not i, not i. i really had no idea what it was gong to be like, so needless to say i was pleasently surprised.

the top 5 will be on hiatus for awhile, it may take on other forms.

you might sleep but you never dream,
onward progress or so it seems...

what a mess my apartment is in. i need to get up and clean it right now before the week starts up again. oh, but how about godspeed you! black emperor and Sigur Ros are coming to pittsburgh in march! ah! i should really stop to think before throwing down the money for them both. Though, i doubt i'd miss godspeed for much.

i don't know but i might get out and see a film tonight. i think it would be good. though maybe i'll just rent something... i'm so damn lazy these days! i don't understand. i guess really i just need to find someone with common interests. i think that would make it worth it. otherwise... i don't even know. 'no man is an island', right?

...and then she's blown,
from the face of the earth

thanks for being patient.

i'm having trouble living, again. and i don't really know how to explain it. i'm having the worst time dealing with people. not in a general sense, at all. i enjoy being quite friendly, when i can. but as far as friendship and what not... it just doesn't make sense to me. i'm sorry, i don't mean to so mopey. it's bothering me today though.

classes? they are still good, but i'm struggling to get the reading done. i'm a bit worried to about upcoming papers, too. bleh.

i did just make the best mixtape i've ever [made]. it really rocks. rob gordan would be very proud.

picked up the new zwan album, and also found the oh-so-fun ok go cd for $10. both are great. but am trying not to over-listen. there's rumors of zwan coming to pittsburgh, i think Sigur Ros, too. all i know is that i'm going to see rainer maria at the attic on monday. and it looks like owen (aka Mike Kinsella; aka the best Kinsella) will be playing too. could be potently dangerous from the money standpoint. we shall see. i will be getting rainer maria's new one. it'll be our two year anniversary, besides :) sadly, i doubt i'll be going with anyone. i don't mean to be selfish about it, but i just can't think of anyone that would really enjoy it like i would. plus it'll bring back memories of that first show i saw them (two year's ago) by myself and was too shy to even say to Cait, even she was standing two feet from me! i was such a dork.

anyway, i've got laundry to do and packages to send. if you want the comment section back up you'll have to help me. i can't figure out the blogger code placing for it. e-mail (jimmy_eat_croup@hotmail) me.

later.
