Oh, Mr. Carter

Last night Meg and I watched Tha Carter, the new documentary out about Lil Wayne.  I’m always a bit apprehensive about watching documentaries or reading books about musicians I like, ever since I read a bio about Led Zeppelin, because I’m afraid that learning about them will ruin their music for me.  When I read [...]

I don’t cry like a little bitch when I can’t open my milk.

Matt and I went to see Louis CK perform at the Walker Theatre this past Friday and there’s no other way to say it: Best Standup Ever.  We got tickets months ago (using the same gift card we used to buy tickets to the aurally-disastrous Timber Timbre/Final Fantasy show a few weeks ago).  We’ve been [...]

Do the Bus a Bus

I can’t do hangovers like I could ten years ago.  Despite the fact that this admission makes me feel incredibly, boringly old, it is the harsh reality that I was faced with this morning at 8:30 a.m. as I awoke to a wave of pain and anguish after drinking my face off on a Monday [...]

Chillin’ with Raekwon

On Friday night I invited a few friends over for drinks and apps before we all headed down to Blush to see Raekwon perform.  Mine and Meghan’s goal of getting our photo taken with every member of Wu Tang is slowly on its way to fruition.
After a few drinks (or, you know, a bottle of [...]

What a Nerd

I’m not usually inclined to post stuff like this, but I found this speech so charming and funny that I had to share.  It’s 14 minutes long, but worth it.

Obsessing

On Sunday night I made sure Matt and I were home in time to watch the hour and a half documentary on MTV, Britney: For the Record.  I am (shamefully) fascinated by her, the obsession with her, and the whole enterprise of “Britney.” I may even have a few of her songs on my gym [...]

Red Flag.

Last night I had a dream that I was telling someone about a celebrity trash story I had read online.
This is definitely a sign that I need to chill the fuck out with the celeb-goss.  Dreaming about relaying stories about borderline celebrities that I’ve read online is a sad, sad sign of my messed up [...]

Oh my fuck.

What in the sweet name of everything that is holy is this thing right here?

I think if I stare at that for too long, I’m going to turn to stone.
I’m not one to continually and maliciously insult and denigrate people, celebrities or not, (well, sometimes), but honestly…what happened here? Was he part of [...]

Save the Spiders

Today is Wednesday, which means that I only work a half-day at my new job (at Fernwood Publishing), and the rest of the day is reserved for thesis/course work. I’ve yet to finish my final paper for my directed study, so I worked on that for a bit. I have 10 pages of [...]
