Confusing
Whats up with people who only button the top button of their cardigan?
So um, this is my life. Right now. A glimpse we'll call it, at the every day mishaps and adventures in my life. In short order. A picture here, an update there.
Let's give it a go.

Blahhh…working on a paper all day today and then class. But after tomorrow I’m home free for the weekend.
Note: THIS IS NOT INTERESTING INFORMATION. I just hadn’t been on here in a while and thought I’d say hi. Sooo, shalom.
It’s been a while… from the new Fleet Foxes album.
A short photo tour of Venice. Just because.
Also, I miss my brother.
Just good.
If you don’t have it already, get the full Body Talk album by Robyn. I’ll post more songs by her, but right now this one is rocking my world. Also, although the full Body Talk album encompasses some of the best songs from Body Talk Part I and II, there are some additional songs from those you don’t want to miss!
Come on, Saturday, let’s dance.
Got up this morning and ran part of the half marathon with my roommate who was running it by himself! Congrats, Stefan, YDM.
And on to a productive Saturday…
My new favorite word describing the act of consuming a lot of alcohol is obliterated. As in, why did we feel the need to get obliterated last night? Or whoa, I was absolutely obliterated last weekend.
(Psstt, Mom and Dad, don’t take it literally)
I do believe some jazz was promised to you a long time ago. First featured artist: Miles Davis.
One of the central figures of jazz in the 20th century, Miles Davis was at the forefront of multiple musical developments and the emergence of a plenitude of styles. He spearheaded the emergence of be-bop, hard bop, cool jazz, free jazz, fusion, funk and techno music. Keeping ahead of the game and consistently reinventing his musical style, the various lineups of his band, all of which were very successful, were always full of young brilliant players. Because of his success, many other artists were propelled to high levels of fame. Some of the famous jazz artists who owe their success to Miles include John Coltrane, Herbie Hancock, J.J. Johnson, Cannonball Adderley, Keith Jarrett, Bill Evans, Wayne Shorter and Chick Corea. Davis received various rewards in his lifetime, including eight Grammy Awards and a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction. Miles Davis was one of the best, most innovative, popular and influential musicians of the 20th Century.
Since this has no label looks like it’s a surprise song!
So I had to house/dog sit this week and I realized one major thing. Well two. Observation #1: I have no patience. Shocker, I know. I already knew I sort of failed in that department, but what can you do. Observation #2: Having a dog is a lot like having a child. Whining? Not amused. Barking? infuriating. Begging? Good luck.
But then again maybe it’s just because it’s not MY dog. Plus said dog does a lot of the above, so suck it dog.
Moving on. Tonight I’m going to dance to some live country/funk/blues music at a local venue called the Black Cat. But first I have class and a lot of work to do. Not sure why you’d want to know that, but nonetheless there it is.
Lastly, I think I’m going to start using the acronym “RCT” a lot. As in, whoa gettin the RCT I see. Or, it’s the RCT, NBD. Or, just simply, ohhh, the RCT. At which point you’d get a nod of approval. Oh by the way, RCT = red carpet treatment. Think of the possibilities.
The MFRCT.
Hear ye hear ye! I’m kicking off the weeks of solemn silence with a shout out to MEGHAN STEUER who is one of the lovers of my life for the following reasons:
1) She reads my blog every day.
2) She still reads my blog every day even though I haven’t posted something in, oh two weeks or so.
3) Butler is going to the Sweet 16666666!!
3) She’s one of the classiest ladies I know.
4) She always wears really cute headbands and I get really JEALOUS.
…and finally, BECAUSE HER AND I PERFORM THE BEST RENDITION OF MAN IN THE MIRROR SINCE MICHAEL JACKSON HIMSELF.
God love ya.
Newseum. Old newspaper articles. Looking at these was one of my favorite parts of the museum.
National Gallery. A few favorites.
