I've been slacking on my blogging, so I'll try to make this one long and comprehensive, covering many topics that are important to me.
1. brief synopses of recent shows I've been to... Sunset Rubdown at Middleast - played too many new songs. Broken Social Scene at the Wilbur Theatre- we left after they played for 2 hours. some of the company I was with was getting antsy and annoyed by the dude-guys behind us. I enjoyed them a lot. we drank jager in the stairwell. Pants Yell! at Tufts- always a pleasure to see them. Casiotone at Tufts - left after 3 songs because my sister was tired. but I like him, he's good people.
2. I have the best boss ever. today we went to the spa at the Charles Hotel and had massages and pedicures then went out for cheeseburgers.
(first pedicure ever)
this picture reflects how I prefer my feet to be noticed... in other words I prefer you not really notice them.
3. I recently read Little Children by Tom Perrotta. as soon as I finished, I watched the movie for the first time. whenever I'm reading a book that I know is also a movie, I imagine the characters as the actors that portray them (I'm sure this is a common thing). well the whole time I'm reading LC I'm under the impression that David Duchovny is the lead male, 'the prom king'. and I'm thinking - David Duchovny is not the chiseled quarterback dreamboat the author is describing.

then I realized he's not even in the movie... don't know where I got the idea that he was.
Anyways, I really loved this book and think you should read it so I won't divulge the blatant or subtle differences between the book and the movie. I will say that I enjoyed both.
4. what a crappy way to end the baseball season. I didn't even realize they were resuming game 5 tonight. I just happened to see a commercial for a 2008 World Series Champs Phillies commemorative coin or plate or something. I don't really remember the product, I was too busy wondering what I had been doing during the deciding game. then I remembered said game had dragged on since Monday. I was cheering for them to beat the Rays. and the crowd that was there for this victory really deserved to see the Phillies win it all...
recap: Monday - game 5 of the WS. played 5.5 innings then the game got stopped due to rain. tied 2-2. Tuesday - the fans from Monday night's game come back to see them finish game 5.
no bozos. Wednesday - fans come back to see game 5 resumed 46 hours later
the Thrilla in Philla ends with a Philly victory 4-3. Brad Lidge records his 48th save out of 48 save opportunities. that's pretty amazing.
5. I bought these frames at Savers for $1.99. my dad thinks I overpaid. I just had my prescription lenses put in.
I really like them.
