Just got these two from Amazon’s mp3 store:

Patty Larkin - Watch the Sky

Carrie Newcomer - Geography of Light

This is exactly what I need right now.

Reasons why this week/weekend was/is awesome:

  • Mike and Sarah moving back to DC
  • Andy home for Spring Break on Friday
  • New humongous TV
  • Billy breaks my boredom streak and breaks in my TV with me
  • Lunch with the whole fam over the weekend
  • Sleeping in
  • Hookah with Zach during a
  • Full Lunar Eclipse
  • $1 Movie in Arlington
  • Wall hangers for small stringed instruments
  • Full security clearance

reasons

I got hit twice with illness - one was a terrible cold that I’m still coughing up, the other was a stomach bug that shrank my stomach so that I can’t even eat a Chipotle burrito all the way through.    Sad.

The weather has been getting better, and that’s a plus, but sad to know that it will all come crashing down again pretty soon.

Super Tuesday tommorrow.  Trying not to get too hopeful.

I find myself bored lately - might have to do with the fact that I’m a little stagnant at work due to waiting for my security clearance, and also not having written/recorded anything lately, even though I’ve got a lot of ideas.  Might come up with an Ruby on Rails app to manage the project hours - I wonder how well it would be received.

Our house is almost done, probably a few more days of work and then we’ll have a shiny new kitchen and two bathrooms.  Oh yeah, and the deck.  Speaking of which, summer is right around the corner.  Was thinking about what David Allen said - mark your calendar a month from now, and something life changing will happen in that month.  The two times I’ve tried it, something life changing did happen.  Nothing earth shattering, but enough to make me believe in this theory.

I really hate everything that Starbucks sells.  Why do I keep buying them?
