i am going to sleep all day tomorrow/today. sleep the clock around even. gah. i am such a nerd. this was really really really a grand weekend. i spent the weekend with owenm + ceasetoexist + lazyspark and other old faves! i had such a great time and got so little sleep and bought so many cds and a few records. my head is throbbing.

i had been trying to complete my volume magazine collection for about 6 years or so. at the wfmu record fair i found volume 1-6 and bought them all. stupid, yes. i just found them on half.com for cheapola, but they are in my hot little hands now, so i really don't mind at all. this weekend was the perfect way to spend my tax refund and i passed that test with flying colours and then some!

b + s report later. or maybe i'll just link to all those lovely ljers who already posted about it. go read nogoodnik's journal for the philly setlist and whanot.

ps why didn't i buy this super xx man album sooner? it's really good. i have so much new music my eyes are going to fall out! OOH OOH and tonight's damien jurado + pedro the lion! i am super duper excited about seeing damien! it will be my first time seeing him! sigh. i wonder if jeremiah got the package i sent him. speaking of packages, for my bday on friday, here are some things i would like. you're not obligated or nuffin, but if you're feeling sinister[ly] charitable, go ahead. make my 23rd!
