I’m currently listening to: Explosions in the Sky - First Breath After Coma
I am a busy individual this semester. In between my frequent trips for job interviews, I feel as if I am constantly engulfed in meetings for various projects. As a result, I have done a rather terrible job of blogging lately. I hope you’ll forgive me.
A lot has happened since I last posted. In case you don’t ever talk to me, I must inform you that the Boston Red Sox did in fact conquer all of baseball and bring home the World Series for the second time in four years. It was a wild conclusion to the Cleveland series, and another lackluster World Series in which the NL counterpart did not come out ready to play. I think the eight day layover really hurt Colorado. Still, it was a great for them to even be in the playoffs, let alone the World Series. Nevertheless, one should never have to turn off a playoff game because they feel embarrassed to watch the other team perform.
In other news, I spend nearly all of my limited spare time these days practicing my guitar skills. I promise you that my ability is still mediocre, but you might notice a slight change for the better… at least I do. Lately I have been working on “Wonderwall” by Oasis, “Slide” by the Goo Goo Dolls, “Wonderwall” covered by Ryan Adams, “Come Pick Me Up” by Ryan Adams, “The Quiet Things that No One Ever Knows” by Brand New, and “She Sends Kisses” by The Wrens. Also, I would like to say that I rediscovered (Whats the Story) Morning Glory? by Oasis, and I really think it is one of my top three or four albums of the nineties.
This weekend I finally made it out to the Champaign Family Video for the first time this semester, so I am going to go watch a few episodes of Friday Night Lights before I get back to studying for my finance exam tomorrow. I’ll let you know whether I enjoy the show or not, I’m kind of excited after the things I’ve heard about it. At least maybe it will keep me occupied while all of my favorite shows start switching to reruns after the WGA strike.

Friday Night Lights–good or not?
#1. The Sox won the world series both in your high school graduation year and my high school graduation year… weird.
#2. I’m excited to watch Friday Night Lights with you.
#3. I approve of your music selection for guitar playing. Especially Ryan Adams.
