Seriously, how adorable is William Beckett?
I went to the tour last night at the TLA for only like twenty bucks and it was a really great time.

I went from all the way back to three heads back to dropping back after getting kicked in the head, to just chilling upstairs.

You Me At Six- Very cute, lead singer had t-shirt on that said "Make Cupcakes, Not War." And from the UK.

Secret Handshake- Very bouncy, they really got the crowd going with Saturday and that song about TGIF (Maybe it's just called TGIF?) Some technical difficulties but it didn't really phase the crowd at all. Good deal.

Set Your Goals- I kind of didn't understand why these guys were there? I mean, they were good but while the other bands were rock or rock/pop, these guys were definitely punk and a lot of kids there were actual kids and got caught up in moshing. I got kicked in the head. Ouch.

The Academy Is...- Amazing. So much energy. They really know how to work together and just energize the crowd. So awesome. Towards the third or second last song, I headed upstairs but still whoa. I'm impressed. And Beckett said "Go Phils!"

Mayday Parade- Apparently sucks at bowling but they did a really great job and I wish I had knew their music before I went, The leader singer and the drummer played a gorgeous piano ballad towards the end that I'm trying to find out about.

Anyone want to be buddies on NaNoWriMo?
Hit me up

-Phils are in LA. Beat the Dodgers!! Go Phillies!!
-My NaNoWriMo outline is almost complete
-And I have introduced the new Driving Mix into the car with the help of my roommates. Granted, some songs are just on there for general silliness. That new Panic! at the Disco song is really just so we can go "Hah! This song is about blow jobs!" And 'Girls' By Beastie Boys cause, you know, it's totally the 80s.

A few baseball games and then
Wed- Arctic Monkeys & The Like
Friday- Relient K, Copeland,& Barcelona
Nov 3rd - The Academy Is..., Mayday Parade, Set Your Goals, Secret Handshake, You Me At Six
Nov 21st- Trans-Siberian Orchestra

Guess how many of those bands I actually recognize. Go ahead. Try it.
But I really can't resist cheap tickets.

Three years running?
Insanity. I've been playing 'animal, vegetable, mineral' on facebook walls with people from the lab. I think most people call it twenty questions but we're nerds maybe. And it takes for-ev-er (Sandlot <3). But it's better than Marathon Truth or Dare. Which has been officially outlawed by everyone we work with

My cell phone died in the waters of the Dirty Jerz a few weeks back and I kind of enjoyed not having a cell phone. I have a replacement one now but I keep forgetting to bring it with me. It's a hard habit to get back into. I'm kinda annoyed that I keep ending sentences in prepositions but I don't have the motivation to change them at the moment.

-Did you know...that a year ago, I was in Penzance, not getting fed because my homestay woman never gave Molly & I any lunch. Weird.
