4-20 day, dude like WOAH!!!

So today was yet another day of sleeping in and waking up with not enough time to really enjoy my time at home without the wife. I hope that doesnt sound too terrible, but it's sometimes nice to have a break from people, and i mean all people, even the ones I love. I spent most of my time growing up entertaining myself. I spent a lot of time just being alone, in my room. So I was prety used to that. Well now that im married, and my wife is unemployed, i really dont bet time away from people anymore. So she's in Nashville, trying to get a job. I spend my days sleeping, which is not that cool, to be honest.

Now to follow up on what i wrote yesterday. I went directly to Target after work and bought the new Silversun Pickups record. Totally a good decision. That album is really, really good and i recomend it to anyone with a taste for good music. Now, what should I do about this Manchester Orchestra record??? I think I'll wait till Bethany gets back and buy it digitally, so i can put it on the iPod. This is because of two reasons. One, I doubt they'll have it at Target. Two, if i buy it with my laptop, Itll be harder for me to put onto the iPod eventually, because i rarely use that thing. And, also, I wont be able to listen to it in the car anyway untill Bethany gets back so whats the point of buying it now when i cant even really listen to it? Done.

Well, it snowed today. April 20th, and it snowed a wet heavy bullshit on our heads. Driving to work was an adventure to say the least. I felt like I was driving in sand. I was really hoping the car in front of me on 41 wouldnt stop because i felt if I came to a stop, I would be stuck on the highway. I was 3 minutes late for work but that was because of the weather basically. I doubt ill get nailed fot it. Though Seymour is a total dickhead, so ya never know!!!

One positive about Bethany being gone for these 4 days is I get to watch whatever I want on TV. This means nothing but SPORTS!!! I am also a big fan of the times when the scheduled Baseball game on ESPN gets rained out and they do the "live lookins" around the league. So I'm sitting on my couch watching the Pirates and the Marlins. A game I would otherwise NEVER see! Also they were showing the Astros and Reds. The same thing goes for that game, never would it be on TV. I really enjoy seeing teams other than the fucking Redsox and Tigers and Angels. I guess I'm basically sick to death of the American League. American League is zzzzzzzz.

Also, the Bulls were on TV tonight. Playoff Basketball is pretty good stuff actually. Regular season shit is just a bunch of overpaid player jogging and shooting easy buckets with little to no defense. That's why i perfer the Collage game over NBA most of the time. The only problem I have with collage basketball is I have no aligence to any of the teams. I have no aligence to any collage team in any sport as a matter of fact. I do root for the Irish in Football but not very hard. What a fucking tangent this has turned into eh? THE POINT: Bulls lost and i actualy got to listen to the 4th quarter in the car on the way to work. I listened to Basketball OVER this amazing new Silversun album.

I burned a copy of Swoon to run into Subway and give to Tim for an early birthday present, but he was'nt working, so I just pocketed it. I'm glad i did cuz i uploaded it to the work computer and now I can listen to it over and over!!! I might give the copy to someone else if I feel they might dig it. I can always burn a new copy for Tim later. In fact id be suprised if he doesnt go buy it himself. He was the one that gave me a copy of their first album anyway. I just figured, get one to him, if he dont need it, ill give it to someone else. No matter what, someone is getting a copy of Swoon!!!!!!

Thank you,
Brad

So, I sit here, blogging at work. I wish i could get paid to do this, lol. Technically I guess, I am.

OK, so I've had my mind set on buying the new Manchester Orchestra record that comes out tomorrow. Ive had my mind set on this for weeks now. Well, I also knew that the new Silversun Pickups record was coming out soon as well. From what I had read, I wasn't too sure if I was gonna bother with it immediately. I was gonna focus on getting that Man-O album. Well I realized today that it came out last Tuesday. Silversun record that is. So decided to go and check out a few of the tracks.

This is where it gets interesting. The Silversun album is fucking awesome. Now what do I do? I feel I must own this record! But the Manchester Orchestra comes out Tomorrow!

Two options are presented at this time. I go to Target in the morning and see if they have the Silversun record. What if they do? Do I buy it? Chances are high that i would, since I'm already there. But I've been raving to anyone in earshot for the last two weeks about this Manchester Orchestra album. If I buy the silversun album tomorrow, can I justify also purchasing the Man-O record too? Or does one have to wait? Additionally, what if Target doesn't have either album, or just one or the other? I was planning on buying the Manchester Orchestra album digitally anyway, but the more I think about it, the more i want it/both in physical form. I would probably get hung by my wife for buying 2 albums when we're pretty broke. But g'damnit I love music and I am very stoked about both of these records. So whats it gonna be?

I may have to go off of which one I am more confident i will be totally in love with. Which album will I be totally obsessed with for the next month or so? Which record will be the soundtrack of my spring?

Hopefully both.
