A Knock on the Door is Worth Two in Gin Rummy

Just got back from a work - soccer (we won) - couch moving marathon. Ready for bed. I have to get up real early on Wednesday and I thought that if I could make sleep early tonight, then I would be more apt to do it when the time comes. Naturally, my 2nd broken train-crossing barrier of the month set me back about 45 mins, so I guess it's business as usual. However, I'm glad the couch stayed in my truck and glad the chair stayed on the car...it could have been worse. Neighbors must have BBQed tonight because I had a window open and now it smells wicked smokey in here. Smoke: I haven't had a cigarette in a really, really long time. I started having a cigar with Justin this weekend but mine was too dry, so I switched to the pipe. I forgot how much I enjoyed the pipe.

Concert Review
Oh yeah, about Justin...Cool Ethan and Alex cruised up for the underwhelming (that word, along with "et al" were this weekend's themes) Killers show. The Killers get 5/10, Modest Mouse 7/10, Arcade Fire 8.5/10, Doves 8/10 and British Sea Power 6/10. The I would gladly pay to see the Doves and Arcade Fire again. British Sea Power had the coolest shirts but of course they were sold out, so ended up with an underwhelming (see!) substitute. The Arcade Fire shirts just plain out sucked. Beers were tasy but $8.25 per...needless to say Cool Ethan and I blew through all the cash we had in short order. What were we supposed to do? Not drink? I think he may have even hit the ATM once. Anyways, the head Killer was wearing eye shadow and a scarf. He probably had glitter on, too; luckily I was too far away to see it. Too pretty for me, I'm afraid. I'm not sure that Shane was really digging it but Erin must not have been too bummed because she came up to the apt afterwards even though it was late. Go Trojans.

This is my life.

PS If you were a Pimpernel, what color would you be?
