I’m currently listening to: Headlights - Towers
Every time I open my web browser I click through my list of favorites, only so that I can see who has updated their blog/website. I frequently ponder how hypocritical it must seem that I rarely post on my own blog. Often I feel this is because nobody would care about what goes on in my daily life. Then I realize that I desperately seek out the reports others write about their mundane tasks. So here goes nothing.
This weekend I went home to get a bunch of stuff done. Here is a list of things I accomplished this weekend:
- Got my haircut
- Measured for tuxedo in Jen’s wedding
- Visited with parents
- Hung out with Patrick
- Saw Nina/David
- Bought a second pair of jeans
I got back to Champaign last night. This morning, when I woke up, I found that my package from Polyvinyl Records arrived. I ordered The Headlights’ new album, Some Racing, Some Stopping on vinyl. By the way, I absolutely love Polyvinyl Records and Saddle Creek Records (and not just because they included a valentine in my package). Each of these record labels has instituted a policy of including a digital download card with all of their records. This means that I can reap the benefits of vinyl (large artwork, better sound, feeling more legit), and still have the music in a readily accessible format. I consider this to be genius.

Do you even have a record player with you in Champaign?
Nope. Do I even own a record player? Nope. However, I don’t own a cd player outside of my car either. I do plan on buying a turntable once I get settled down though. Largely so that I can claim to be a musical elitist.
