Prepping For Another

New Books

Spent some time in Strand this weekend. Always excited for new books!

Strand

NY Release

So Much Snow

Stuck

Pictured below: demonstration of the sheet of ice under the 5 inches of snow that filled the driveway I chose to turn around in after getting stuck on a hill. I spent the next 2 hours trying to get out. It was incredible.

New Book

As Authentic As The Show

Spices Expire

The result of a multi-cabinet/closet clean out. All of this and more had expired.

Discount Bin

Got this from my older sister post Holidays because it was on sale. How thoughtful.

A gift

I got this gift for Christmas from a co-worker. Pretty awesome

Some Favorites

Amazon comes through again.

Pick This Up

The Decemberists - The King Is Dead

Therapy Games

Saw this at work and wanted to check it out. It's pretty interesting, although to some extent it's upsetting to think that there are kids who need this stuff/therapy in general.

Decidedly Ungrateful

Flyer

Found this punched to a wall in Philly today.

Going but always looking back

Switching Companies

In the middle of a weird transition with vendors at work which is potentially leaving a chunk of my money in limbo. I have to file a form to claim it, but only if they figure out why it never came to me in the first place. Once again, I have manage to surprise most people involved in payroll or HR with my situation.

Consolers!

The Sky Was On Fire

Throwback

Found these at work today. So weird.

It's January?

What happened to 2010? What a strange year it has been.

Hypocrite

One year ago, my roommate told me this album had made not only best of the year, but one of the best of the decade. At the time I had never heard of the album or band and scoffed at the claim. He went on to play me a few segments and I wondered how an album so tedious and mediocre could be considered by anyone to be one of the best of the decade.

He persisted in listening to it over the next few weeks and finally I started listening a little closer. One year later, I have just picked it up on vinyl. Not only do I think this is a great album, but it has been on of my most listened to albums of 2010.

With the Avett Brothers, I definitely have no qualms in admitting how wrong I was. Do yourself a favor: listen to this album in full over and over. Then, pass it to a friend. They'll thank you.
