i have the regularity of a menstrual cycle...

that is to say that i noticed i've been posting about once a month and since i'm not the female reproductive system, that just doesn't work for me. so, yet another half-hearted commitment to update more often. life is going well, there is marathon training, working, and then more working and then the running. that's pretty much it, but that's ok. work is kinda like play at the moment, trolling the intertubes for information, ideas, and traffic. the wife and i also get plenty of quality time together while running for hours at a time. my latest dilemma goes as such: the new explosions in the sky album is officially out...but i don't own it yet. why? you may ask. well, my emusic subscription does not renew until the 11th of each month. this is the only downside to emusic that i have found so far, i really want this album but cannot justify purchasing the cd from a store when i can get it from emusic if i just can wait it out 10 more days, which will also be 2 days before they arrive at lenny's in atlanta to blow my mind. speaking of concerts that i am going to see, i have found a very cool little tool that may pique the interest of a few of you. iConcertCal is a free plug-in for iTunes that will scan your music library and then give you a calendar of when bands whose music you have will be coming to town. which, by the way, rules. there is a feature like this on last.fm that also does recommended concerts based on your musical taste. so, between the two i have put together a fairly decent calendar of concerts for this month. expand the post to see the shows that i will be attending: March: 13 - explosions in the sky - lenny's 16 - maserati - the earl 22 - aqueduct & youth group - the earl 22 - the appleseed cast - drunken unicorn 30 - the draft (ex-hot water music) - the masquerade as the more astute of you may have noticed, i have double-booked myself for the 22nd. i really can't decide which show to attend and am really very upset that this decision even has to be made. advice? .beans. songs that played: bright eyes - lover i don't have to love the postal service - this place is a prison the get up kids - impossible outcome m83 - unrecorded red animal war - the insanity
