Hello, world. I’m still here. I’ve had a rather busy week, part of which included writing an article for the next issue of Wedding Dresses magazine. They’re a bridal magazine published in New York. The money is great and the content allows me to be rather creative. Thanks, WD.

Can someone tell me why Bush should see another four years? I look at the “W04” bumper stickers adorning Republican cars here in Nebraska and am really, really confused. I can understand allegiance to Your Political Party, but come on. I’m not saying Kerry is 100 percent qualified to “run” the country, but we’ve learned Bush certainly isn’t our man. I think, too, that the American people want a president they can be proud of. Bush, after three-plus years, still can’t disguise his physical pleasure of being president. You can see him get so excited when they announce his name at some function. Giddy as a school girl.

My dad said it best a few weeks ago: The presidential election is no longer about voting for who you want; it’s about voting for someone you feel lukewarm toward simply to oust the other guy. That’s why I’m an Independent. I hate picking sides and refuse to feel guilty if I exercise free thought.

Last night’s Cursive show at Sokol was pretty great. I enjoyed Criteria but could’ve easily done without Ladyfinger.

I also could’ve done without having a glass of water dumped on me.

Yeah, you read that right. Water. Dumped. On me.

Matthew and I were on the main floor, near the mirrors but below the balcony. Two young kids (I assume young, because they used water, not beer) dumped a bottle of water on my head. My hair and shirt got pretty soaked. And this all happened before the show started! I was pretty upset, but the two bottles of Miller High Life softened the blow.

UPDATE: As feared, my shirt is now stained. At the show, it looked like whatever those brats dumped on me contained some type of bleaching agent. When I pulled that shirt (which has become one of my favorites) from the dryer yesterday, the evidence was clear as day. Now, I’m pretty pissed.

P.S. Long live the cowbell.

Thanks, Matthew!

“don’t vote”


Ah, the antics of one W. brilliantly imitating another W. Hilarious, I say. Absolutely spot-on.

the streets


I gave The Streets a good listen today on my iPod while driving ’round Omaha. Good stuff. I like the way this guy says different words in his British accent.
