Funeral Blues

Another weekend is over.

I know it's cliched, but they go by way too damn fast. I had a lot of wedding prep stuff to do with the fiance and that made it go by a bit faster. Oh, speaking of my fiance, here's our wedding website

I hope that link works, if not, I've +1'd it on google+ and like'd it on Facebook so yeah. There ya go.

I'm listening to the new Mark Lanegan album, Funeral Blues, and it's pretty much everything I was hoping it would be. I picked up the Bangarang EP from Skrillex this weekend and really love it, totally recommend it. Also got the new Underworld soundtrack and bought 300 on Blu-ray...but I haven't had a chance to check either of those out yet.

Not much else going on right at the moment...oh wait, I forgot to talk about the wedding stuff we did. On Saturday we met with our photographer. He was very amiable and reminded me of how I felt when I first started hearing stories about Lee's family :P His pictures also looked very nice and he's got quite a bit of experience, so I'm confident that he'll do the job well. Sunday evening we met with a DJ...I refuse to call him "our DJ" or "the DJ" because there's no way I would've picked this dude if I was paying for it. Is he incredibly cheap? Yes. Does he have a lick of experience? Notsomuch. Oh sure, he's played music for like, three weddings and will probably do a couple more before mine rolls around...but he didn't seem very professional either. We had to meet him at a restaurant as opposed to the photographer, who met us at the house. This DJ didn't really give us very many details about his work/setup and had absolutely no music or video to show us. I have a feeling the music at our reception is gonna be a little disappointing. There was a DJ group at an open-house we went to a couple weeks back and they were badass. Expensive? Yes, but totally worth the money. Oh well.

Halfway through the new Lanegan and I'm still digging it. I should probably drag myself to bed haha.

Welcome!

So, it's that time again.

I haven't had a blog in years. Used to run one over on myspace, but I quit using that site ages ago. The time feels right to start a new one (not to mention the fact that I just purchased this new laptop today). I'm a little rusty, so go easy on me at first, as I'll be making a lot of errors and whatnot.

My goal in writing this blog? Sharing my thoughts on all the things I enjoy (and some I hate) and giving far away friends more detailed updates on my boring little life haha. Also, ex.pect irregular updates...really doubt I'll get around to writing something every single night or even on a particular night each week.

This blog is linked to my bare Google+ account and will also be shared on my Facebook profile, so feel free to stop by those pages and say hi as well. I'll also be dropping links to some of my favorite web pages for your viewing pleasure.

Be back soon with something more substantial. I promise.
