today is the most random of ramblings

Dear Internets,

I love you more than ever today! I was finally able to find a good quantity of Stargunn songs, besides the two I had already. Stargunn was Shooter Jennings' rock band before he decided that he probably shouldn't be playing in a rock band. But OMG! I love the idea of him playing rock!!

Yes, geneli4 I see you over there glaring at me. I will post the songs! Some of them are in wma though, so I need to do some converting magic first. WMA?? The nerve of people!

Also, you all are SO fired! How come nobody told me about Cartel? I listened to their CD yesterday and LOVED it! More than the Cute is What We Aim For CD I listened to today. (Sorry, Sammi. I'm trying though!) seimaisin, maybe we won't be leaving the show early after all. =)

I have this new thing I'm trying. After I acquire some new music - all by entirely LEGAL means, of course - I put it on my iPod and actually listen to it. Normally new music just sits on my computer for ages until I maybe get around to listening to it someday which could be months away. I have tons of music I've never listened to! What's the point of having it then?? So, now I'm trying to listen to it right away and it's going okay. I've listened to 13 new CDs so far this week!

I AM GOING TO SEE CHUCK KLOSTERMAN IN TWO DAYS!!!

I've worked at Hallmark the past two nights and have managed to finish an entire 300 page book. It's an intense, busy-every-second job that's for sure. =/

I think my boss is going to try to steal Sam the Squid off my desk. She was eying him most appreciatively today. I'm not giving him up!!

I have this nagging feeling that I agreed to do something tomorrow night but I have no idea what it is. Also, I have a nagging feeling that I should take Friday off. But I just got this project that's due next week and I should probably be in the office to work on it. Still, I've only taken one day off so far this year and it's already almost two months over. I still have 30 days I have to take off. That's 6 weeks! I need to get cracking on it.

I have done nothing but drink water constantly for the past four days. I am Ultra-Hydrated Girl! Why am I so thirsty??

I think there was more I wanted to write about, but it's completely left my mind. I think you can tell I'm a little scatterbrained today. =/

Um ... well, it's entirely possible that you may have to find someone else for that ticket, anyway. :-/ Right now, it's looking like that's the week I'll be in St. Louis, if Dad's rehab goes as planned. I'll know more by the weekend, or early next week, I hope.

Okay. It's not a big deal to go by myself. Family comes before cute rock boys.

SQUID!

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

My squid is freaking adorable!

[bibliogrrl.livejournal.com]

jenni gives good squid. did you see my post?

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

You know, had I been thinking, i would have mailed you one of my CK books (I have all three he's put out so far) to have him sign. Pooper. Have you yet figured out what he's doing? Is he, like, pretending to be a geeky musician now?

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

It's some series of shows a local radio station is doing that brings together authors and music. It's not some tour that CK is doing or anything, as far as I can tell.

PS. He has four books out now. =)

[rockerlee.livejournal.com]

Duh, I knew that he had four out...the fourth one just came out.

[rockerlee.livejournal.com]

OH also...after you do your wma - mp3 magic, might you share the Stargunn?? :)

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

Yep! I'm bringing the songs to work with me so I can upload them there.

[geneli4.livejournal.com]

i'm not glaring, I SWEAR. shooter says he loved stargunn, the timing just wasn't right, and i love that he loved it!

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

*hee*

No, I meant that you would be glaring because I was talking about getting music and not posting it. Because that's just mean, really. =)

I really shouldn't make posts when I am loopy after spending too much time at Hallmark.

[geneli4.livejournal.com]

ahhh, but you've posted it now, so, woo! it's all good!

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

Ha ha. That's me. Always deliverin' the goods. =)

[geneli4.livejournal.com]

well, yeah, but i'd still totally dig you even if you weren't. ;)

We are on for tomorrow, right? I work until 6:30 - I had to switch because I was originally scheduled to close. Where/when shall we meet up?

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

YES! I'm very excited about it. It starts at 8pm, so you should be fine. Do you want me to just come over to your place? 7:15ish or so?

[duckduck.livejournal.com]

That could be doable. I'll need to talk to j, though. I'm confirm later tonight.

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

'k. Just let me know. I am open.

[duckduck.livejournal.com]

We'll meet up then at my house. Excellent.

[leighblack.livejournal.com]

Fabulous! See you !tonight
