When is Spring getting here, again?
We are now in the doldrums of winter. Blah. I'm so sick of winter and so ready for spring. Living through winter in Chicagoland makes moving to Vegas even more appealing, I'll tell you. If only UNLV or some other area university would get my damned Masters of Library Sciences program.
So, I was pretty sick last weekend. It was the kind of sick where, you feel so lousy, you don't even want to feel better, you just want to die. Yeah, it was pretty fun times... only, not so much. The thing that sucked most about it was that I got my hair cut (finally) on Saturday morning and I was feeling so super excited about how awesome I looked. Then, I get home from shopping that afternoon and, bam, sick. Being sick really sucks, as if you didn't already know that.
Let's see, what else is going on in my life? Not a whole hell of a lot, I'll tell you, and that's kind of sad. I work, sleep, and play around on the internet. Throw in some more working and sleeping, and you've pretty much summed up my life at this point. Damned exciting, isn't it?
I must say that I do love my internet friends, though. When I feel lousy, they make me feel better. When I need a good laugh, they're always willing to provide one. I don't know what I'd do without them, that's for sure. I'd probably be even more of a self-imposed outcast than I already am.
Okay, here we go with recommendations:
DVD recommendations:
Shark Tale: This was such a fantastic, funny, beautiful movie, I am sorry I didn't go see it in the theater. In my opinion, it's really geared toward a more mature audience, but that makes it fantastic viewing for adults. And the mobster jokes cracked me up!
Music recommendations:
Nellie McKay, Get Away from Me: John Mayer recommended her in his Esquire column a few months back, but I was a bit skeptical. After hearing some negative comments about her album, I was even more skeptical. All my skepticism was laid to rest, however, when I finally got my hands on a copy of this and listened to it. FANTASTIC! Nellie has this beautiful, very feminine voice, and combines that with abrasive, funny, and sometimes harsh lyrics. Not everyone will like her, but I now count myself to be a fan.
