well folks, thats all she wrote! we are officially moving to new orleans at the end of the month. in all honesty, i am a wee bit nervous and really hoping that we are making the right decision. sadly, we havent got much in the way of support on this one, but i kind of understand their reluctancy to give their unwavering stamp of approval. its either going to be brilliant, or miserable. i can only hope for the former.

sup peoples? man my shit be all fucked up! in the ongoing drama that is my job hunt, the people that hired me for columbia, and now new orleans are apparently being asked by the prime contractor to re-interview for the position. actually, the prime contractor wants to interview yours truly, which never happens, or at very least rarely happens. so, who knows where that stands, but i do have an interview today for a position in charleston, sc.

hey chicago! how about them cubbies? yeah, luckily i am not a cubs fan. i will say this. being a chicagoan of 29 years, i love all chicago teams. although, and of course, not equally. go sox!
i love marnie stern, because not only is she hot, but, most importantly, her guitar virtuosity will burn your pubes off, or something like that. the girl freakin finger taps as if she were nuno bettencourt - yeah he was in extreme, but how many guitarists do you see hammerin down like that now-a-days? let alone a freakin woman? take the fact that she’s a chick out of the equation, even though i brought it up, this non gender specific person freakin rocks.
her new kill rock stars release, due out on tuesday, is painfully titled this is it and i am it and you are it and so is that and he is it and she is it and it is it and that is that.
