Two hour shifts are hilariously awesome, 0mg! XD

Anywho....I work all weekend, but what is new? Heh.

Three things:
01.) I watched two S2 episodes of Brothers & Sisters. Yeah, I'm still in love with the hilariously crazy and drunk Walkers. ♥ I'm coming down from my hyper high so that is all I have to say about the show for now.

Hell, I don't know how I'm going to survive the concert tonight. I should nap, but I have to finish my to-do list. 0mgwtf, moving on...

02.) I've seen a photo meme floating about for awhile now. I only have a point and shoot camera, but why should that stop me from trying the meme out? It'll give me something to do besides sit around the house on my days off of work. Heh. I started taking photos today so I guess today, the 16th, is my start date. I'll post them in the wee hours of tomorrow, since I doubt I'll be getting home from the concert before Midnight.

The meme rules )

03.) So, in my Maccabees excitement, I totally bought an EP that I thought was theirs, but it turns out that it is a different band with the same name. LMAOOOO. Wow, I should have looked more closely at the release date. I usually do, but, like I mentioned, I was too excited. The EP belongs to an indie band, fronted by a woman, from the late 90's. It is not the Maccabees that Ryn turned me onto, but they're still good, imo. Different, but good.

Alright, I have to go get ready for the Teitur concert!!!! :D

It is Supernatural S3 Finale Day!!! :D I should probably watch last week's episode before tonight, though. Heh.

List of five )

I think I'm going to watch last week's Supernatural then get out to visit MissMil and see Iron Man for a second time!!!
dancingstella: (Ewan - A Quick Fuck?)
It is a blah Tuesday outside.

List of five )

I have to stop wasting time now. I work and get to watch The Flight of the Conchords concert tonight. Maybe, I'll feel better once I get going.
dancingstella: (Lorelai - *facepalm*)
I lied, I didn't go to bed.

I was totally on Cl flagging miscategorized ads. It gets addictive after awhile, wot? It was while I was flagging ads for The Swell Season in the ticket section that it registered that the show is on the same night that I'm seeing DeVotchKa with my family.

Fuck, I really want to work The Swell Season show. But, but, DeVotchKa. Live.

I don't know what I'm going to do now. *headdesk*

Total sidenote: While searching Last.FM's event page, I came across a band with the name of Tom Cruise Control. *fallsover* LMAO.

P.S. Google can stop being a bitch any time now, thanks.
dancingstella: (Listening to music)
I know Last.FM keeps track of the concerts you go to. When you actually log in and list them, that is. I'm on LJ more so I'm keeping a goal list of the number of concerts I attend here. I'm aiming for 50 because I doubt that I'll be able to afford more than that. But who knows, I've surprised myself in the past when it comes to what concerts I've been able to go to when I originally thought they were lost causes.

35 Concerts in 2008 )

I'm going to St. Vincent with family tonight so that will be #2 for the year. :)
dancingstella: (Default)
I went outside to fetch the garbage cans this morning. After getting inside I scratched out all my errand plans. I'm so not going out in this weather if I don't have to. Fuck, is it cold. I'm such a wimp. LOL.

3 Loves:
01.) My room!!!!! Rambling about my room )

02.) This dictionary site is 20,000x better than this dictionary site. The main reason being that I don't have to sign up or pay anything to hear the pronunciation of the words I am looking up. I'm loving it! Besides being a visual person, I also learn by sound. It's why I like to talk things out, so I can hear what it sounds like. If that makes sense. I also prefer talking to people because you can never clearly get your sense of humor or meaning across through writing, imo.

03.) October Road. I am almost done catching up with the show!!!! The torrent for the last aired eppy is almost done. This show is so much love!

October Road rambling, with pictures )

Dislikes:
I'm disliking a few things right now )

I can finally watch October Road's 8th second season eppy!!!! I would have watched it already if it weren't for my DVR deleting it before I had a chance. Damn DVR. Heh.

First random-filled entry of 2008, YAYES!

Heh.

List of :
I made this long )

Ok. Bed.
dancingstella: (Johnny - Just Lounging)
I did go to the concert by myself. I couldn't find anyone to sell the other ticket to, but I was also impatient to get inside, since I had already missed half of LCD Soundsystem. After the show ended, I told my father he missed out on a GREAT concert, so now he says he will pay me back for his ticket. LOL.

I don't really do reviews but I do like to try )

Alright, I've been dozing off typing this. I want my bed. Such a great night!

ETA: Now that I've uploaded them, the blurry photos )
dancingstella: (HP - Suffer And Like It)
I'm wiped out and I have no idea why. All I want to do is sleep.

The Wah:
The National/St. Vincent concert is sold out. :( I knew I should have gotten tickets yesterday when I was downtown for my second job. :((((((((( I missed out on St. Vincent at ACL, but I did get to see The National, and ACL was just this past weekend so maybe I shouldn't feel so bad about missing this concert. It just would have been nice to have seen them, both The National and St. Vincent, after listening to their music more closely, reading the lyrics. Oh well, there is always the next tour, I guess.

The Blah:
Rambling on about GG's series boxed set after I gave it a closer look )

I think, since I can't see The National and St. Vincent, I will finish catching up on Heroes and finish watching the new season pilots, a week before most of them premiere, hahaha.
dancingstella: (Lorelai - *facepalm*)
Rats, I totally forgot about the Guster concerts that are taking place tonight and tomorrow evening.

So, to Tickebastard's site I went to, to see if I could get tickets for tomorrow, since I know they stop selling them online on the day of the show, in hopes of going with my sister and BIL, who were smart and bought their tickets weeks in advance. When that failed to produce any positive results, I drove to the venue to just double check if they had any tickets available.

No such luck. They're all sold out for both nights. Woe.

While I was getting my car refueled, I noticed that I forgot to put my ID and cash card back in my wallet from when I took them out for the wedding I went to yesterday. Oy.

That is life. I've seen Guster before so I'm not terribly disappointed, only because I know I'll see them again sometime in the future.

Instead, I should probably (finally) crack open a certain book that is giving me the stink eye. Figuratively speaking of course.
dancingstella: (Gomez)
I'm still dead tired. And I've had coffee. What the shit?

Best Weekend EVAH! )

Alright, I think....it's job hunting time. Joygasm.
dancingstella: (Dork!Ewan)
It started out so innocent, walking into Target yesterday afternoon.

Then it went downhill from there )

On a side, more TV talk )
__________________________________________

Lately, as in just yesterday, I've been watching movies. Not my original three remaining two BTA movies (yet), but I've been watching movies on the movie channels. That's something. It's a step in the right direction at least.

Movies I watched yesterday )

Now, I just need to start watching movies at theatres on a regular basis again and I'll feel normal once more.

And speaking of movie theatres, I've been watching trailers for upcoming movies again. )
__________________________________________

In the music and concert side of my interests, I haven't been to a concert since, well, since...Damien Rice? Wow, May 15th really was the last concert I went to. Damn, I'm slacking. I missed on a few early June concerts, but it couldn't be helped, work had to come first. However, there are some awesome gigs coming up in the next few weeks. I have to attend at least a few.

Concert talk )

With my client leaving for a month and a half, I will have to find another job. Hopefully a job with regular day hours so I can actually go to concerts without having to take time off work.
__________________________________________

I think I need to sleep.

I just found out that Ray LaMontagne is performing here tomorrow night.

So.

I just bought 3 tickets through Ticketbastard. I thought I would take my dad and stepmom to the concert. My stepmom's mom past away last week (the funeral was yesterday) so I thought I could do something for her. In my own special, dorky way.

Who the hell knows if they can even go. Eeep, I'll find out tomorrow. *crosses fingers*

*headdesk* I need to go hide my wallet. Again. *shakes fist at Ticketbastard charges*

ETA: - 0mg, Iron & Wine will be performing at the Pabst Theatre (Milwaukee) in Februray! *sits on hands* Must.Not.Buy.Ticket....I LOVE HIM!

ETA2: - And Damien Rice is here next month!?!! :( I have been wanting to see him perform live IN FOREVER!!!
dancingstella: (Lorelai - *facepalm*)
I haven't been this compulsive with shopping. Ever.

Without thinking, I just went ahead and bought pre-sale Snow Patrol concert tickets. Through Ticketbastard.

*falls over* Ahaha, I need to go hide my wallet now.

I have a date with my lovely bed that I do not want to be late for.
dancingstella: (Lorelai - MMM...Coffee)
1.) Paragliding: I want to do it!
WOULDN'T THIS BE SO MUCH FUN?!?!?! )

2.) Work/Life:
I had a badbadbad workday yesterday. No, seriously, it was beyond all of the other bad days I've had. So much so that I'm contemplating running away now and never returning. *is not looking at plane ticket and hostel prices* *shifty*

3.) TV:
TV rambling, probably spoilers involved )

4.) Shopping:
The women of my family are going to the outlet malls tomorrow. I don't know if I should go. I've spent a bit too much money already. And if I go shopping with my family, I'll buy stuff. I can't help it, when I see others buy stuff, I want to buy stuff as well. Hee. It is a sickness.

5.) Movies:
I don't understand why my local IMAX is not showing the 3D version of Nightmare Before Christmas. DAMN YOU, MY LOCAL IMAX! I fucking love that movie like you don't understand!!!

Also...I'm pretty sure the last movie I saw in the theatre was stupid Miami Vice. )

6.) Concerts:
Another reason I don't want to go to the outlet malls tomorrow is because it is going to be a full day event. Indigo Girls are performing in the cities tomorrow night. :( Decisions, decisions.

Coffee and toast are calling my name. :)
dancingstella: (Default)
DAMMIT!

The one time Joe Purdy actually plays a show here, I'll be in Texas.

No Fair. :(

dancingstella: (Default)
1) I got a Caramel Macchiato at Starbucks today. The cup couldn't handle the hot temperature of the drink (or something) because when I picked up the cup, it folded in on itself. I wasn't fast enough to grip it differently/better and I ended up spilling all of my FREE coffee. *pouts* I wanted to cry.

2) Rain, rain, HAIL, rain and, oh yeah, more rain. It's fun.

3) Only not, because I want to go to an outside concert tonight at the State Fair. I'm *this close* to saying "screw it" and going by myself but...that's sad, even for me. Haha. The concert is at 7:30. I don't know. I could possibly wear a hoodie tonight! *is a hoodie geek lover*

It is a BLAH Thursday.
