And she lived happily ever after…

Monday, October 23rd, 2006

I went away this weekend. (And I did not go to Philly). This was one of the best weekends I’ve had in a while… and Internets, I’m keeping it to myself. Hate me.

My brother’s in Phoenix and other random stuff…

Monday, October 16th, 2006

I didn’t intend to write (again) today, but for some reason I heard a dance remix of Bloc Party’s “Banquet” and said “Screw it, Let’s go!”
