I’m sitting here watching Rockstar: Supernova, the elimination episode. I’m desperately hoping Patrice doesn’t get kicked off, both because Barker is in love with her and because I dislike Jill so much. In the meantime, Josh is performing and though I’m mostly nonplussed by his chops, I’m still moved by his performance. Despite his crappy […]

A few weeks ago, GTB told me we had to check out the new show Rockstar: Supernova. I’m not a reality TV fan (though I have made completely understandable exceptions for shows like Temptation Island 1, the Biggest Loser, and the occasional Girls Next Door). So I wasn’t all that excited at the prospect of […]

For the drive to Hometown on Saturday morning, I asked GTB to play me something buttrock-esque. I don’t have anything like that on my iPod and he left his at home. So he grabbed his CDs and improvised. I saw him slip something into the player that said, “70s Mix.” I figured that was OK. […]

The Conductor has a new song up on their myspace page. I think I was even there when they recorded some of it. I’m such a groupie.
Go. Listen. Thank me later.

One of the greatest things about GTB is how confident I am in the knowledge that he’d have a hard time finding someone as amazingly awesome as me to spend time with. He reconfirms this belief for me in words and longing glances pretty regularly. So it’s rare that I feel threatened by other women. […]

I love the Decemberists. I love the Mariners. And I love GTB for directing me toward USS Mariner this morning to see those two wonderful worlds collide.
The Mariners’ Revenge Song

I know I should heed this warning, hypocritical though it may be, because I can already tell that I’ve done damage to my poor little ears by listening to loud music. Mine has mostly been in my car, but I have to admit that some mornings, when I get back from the gym and take […]

I just made the SAH-WEETEST playlist on my iPod to jog to:
Fancy Claps, Wolf Parade
Baby I’m a Star, Prince
Everyday I Love You Less and Less, Kaiser Chiefs
Almost Crimes, Broken Social Scene
Red Morning Light, Kings of Leon
Is This Love?, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah
Munich, The Editors
Michael, Franz Ferdinand
Full Disclosure, Fugazi
Cocaine Blues, Johnny Cash
Won’t Be Home, Old […]

Last Thursday, I got to see GTB’s band play for the first time. Not THEIR first time, MY first time. I was a little nervous about it because, as one of my friends at work asked me, what if they sucked? I was pretty sure they didn’t because I have their EP. And even though […]

As you can CLEARLY see from the above photo, I saw Arcade Fire at the Paramount last night. This picture was taken a few moments after the tall guy sitting in the section below us finally sat down. I wasn’t sure how much time I had between his bouts of standing, so I snapped […]
