I don’t think it’s a huge secret I have a crush on this woman. Her new triple album comes out in like three weeks. The first two songs I’ve heard off of it are wonderful so far.

This one is alright, not as epic as Only Skin, and not as [...]

Today’s book is Blankets by Craig Thompson. I’ll probably spoil a lot (EDIT: I ended up not spoiling much, sacrificing the ability to write a lot about it though) , but I’ll try not to, but I’m going to talk freely about this book. It’s a biographical graphic novel about Craig Thompson’s early life and [...]

First off, before I post anything, I got linked by this place: largehearted boy So I must oblige and link back. It seems like the nice thing to do. They’re my first link, it seems. So yay, I didn’t know anyone wandered on to this blog who wasn’t Nick and Amee.
I want to start a [...]

Long before I read The Road I constantly wondered what I would do if I survived long enough to live after the demise of human society. Now I think about it all the time because of the book and Patton Oswalt. So here is my thoughts on how I will survive the world after The [...]

I love lists. I love them so much. So over the next couple of weeks, I’ll probably be making my own best of 2009 and best of the decade lists. Because I love them.
I feel like this list may not be all that well constructed. Since I have heard a lot of music this year, [...]

This is going to be hard to talk about, but I’m going to try to. This book has basically become all I have thought about since I started reading it, which is something I can’t say about Liars and Saints. The book is brilliantly written, the characters are so easy to connect to, and the [...]

Merry Christmas!
For the most part my family doesn’t do much. Yesterday my Mom, sister, and I went to Target to use gift cards my Aunt gave us all. Then we tried playing Axis and Allies, and my Mom and sister got bored so we gave up and opened our presents (because I didn’t want to [...]

I never post here, I know, but I’m going to try. I know I also say that a lot, but I mean it this time!
I have decided this break I’m going to try and read a lot of the books I have stockpiled here, and the first book I chose to read was Liars and [...]

Things I am liking and disliking lately.
Dislikes:

I have no car for the next few days. This is due to my mom mainly. SIGH.
I have a Calculus test on Monday.
School in general is owning my life.
30 Rock, The Office, and How I Met Your Mother. Clearly none of these shows are bad, or unfunny, it’s just [...]

Okay, I suck, I never update this blog ever. I am sorry for all none of you who read this. Whenever I do update this, it’s a review of something I would normally review as a topic on MP or as a note on Facebook, but whatever.  So I will try and get through everything [...]

So, I feel like, I need to do this post before I can get to actual blog posts. Or whatever. I feel like this blog isn’t very well written. Which is odd all things considered. Most of my posts on Monkey Productions or /orate seem to have more insight than anything on this blog. Although, [...]

So about three weeks ago I went to Street-Scene 2009 in San Diego. I never blogged about it…but I have time now, so here we go.
Day 1

Trombone Shorty:
This wasn’t a person I came to see. It was a really great performance though. I don’t know much about what happened, but Trombone Shorty did play American [...]
