DEATHCAB!
So yo yo yo. Guess what I did Tuesday?
That's right - we went and saw death cab for cutie. And they rocked. Like awesomeness. I really enjoyed it, even if it meant driving 5 hours Tuesday night to get there and 5 hours back on Wednesday to get home. I'm all confused what day it is now though, since that kind of road trip is usually during the weekend. Doh. But here's the low down on our "weekend trip".
The concert - was rocking. Talk about stereotype dysfunction though. Two stories.
1. Big (BIG) dude comes and sits in front of us with his little girlfriend. I'm thinking aww poor guy got dragged to the emo kid show. (We're talking this guy was like football player meets american gladiators.) Boy was I wrong. Dude knew every word to every song. Even the really old ones that they played. Whoa crazy. Girl looked like she could care less. Ha.
2. Two guys sitting behind us. Mid-twenties. Talking about weddings like they were girls. "Dude you going to have a wedding planner? What about the day of?" Flowers this, colors that. I was dying. Seriously? Then they started talking about rings.
Guy1: "Well we have to get her something simple because she doesn't want to wear her engagement band to work".
Me thinking: "aww poor guy, why doesn't his girl want to wear her ring? That's not cool."
Guy2: "Well doesn't she work with monkeys?! I'll be they are like ohh-shiny!"
You can't make that up. Seriously, that's what was said. I'm not that good.
The show was yay! They played some old ones - We Laugh Indoors, Transatlanticism, Photo booth, the new year, movie script ending, etc. They played lots of the album and the last album, plans. Crooked teeth was awesome, into the dark, blah blah blah.
Know what I was happy about? Title and registration. That's right. erin's favorite song.
What else?
1. I got a new iphone because mine was broken. The guy was also nice enough to replace my busted up head phones. Sweet.
2. Bath and body works was having a sale. Nuff said.
3. Half price books was around the corner. I bought a BOX of books. Literally.
House of leaves for cory. (i can't spell mark danielenwski's name right sorry).
middlesex - jeffrey eugenides
kafka on the shore - murakami
seeing - jose saragamo
all families are psychotic - coupland
jpod - also coupland
speaking with the angel - hornby
being good - hornby
Ive almost got all the hornby/coupland books. Geez. There weren't any palanuik's though. DOH. Blah.
Also got another 25 gift card to amazon from using my chase card so much. Time for some Pratchett lovin'.
4. Got to eat taco cabana. :):) Too bad the tomato problem right now meant no pico de gallo. BLAH. That means my cheese quesadilla was just CHEESE and tortilla. Double doh. Oh wells.
Then today of all things, the exact dog cory wants is sitting in our yard. Talk about fate. Pictures soon. I have to bath my purple head.
