Joining in on the Crowded House love. I play "Something So Strong" when I feel in need of a pick-me-up.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Just back from the concert and it was FABULOUS. It was the last night of their tour and they were having such fun onstage with the whole band playing their hearts out. They played 5 or 6 new songs which are going to be on their next cd, and that was cool, plus lots form the back catalogue, including some songs they rarely sing. They also played a Split Enz song and had great fun with that. Neil Finn reminds me of Springsteen on concert in that he really is in control of the audience at all times but also in that it is clear that he loves singing these songs, and that he loves singing these songs with the audience to share the moment with him.

Thanks, beth. And you totally deserve a cookie AND a glass of wine. I hate it when things happen to my glasses.

My regular glasses disapparated on me last week, and they still haven't turned up, damn it. I may actually have to go out and buy new glasses, which I'm not looking forward to.
At least I have my old backup glasses, but the prescription isn't right any more, so it's a little off-putting.

not your mom's socks.
kiddie birthday party at a farm (hay + pollen + more hay) was very fun. The allergy attack after? Evil. WTF sinuses? I've never had this bad a reaction around a barn before.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
I should have been paying enough attention to know who Pete wentz is, shouldn't I? Still, I did know he was dating a Simpson, even if I don't know what he does for a living.
I've been thinking he was the guy who played Norm in Cheers. I'm not saying this has just become unsustainable, but really, marrying Jessica would've been more believable.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Fuck. It's light outside. I forgot to go to sleep. That book was really long.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
What book?
