last night my mom and i went to outback steak house to celebrate her new job.
i like outback steakhouse.
then we went to rasputin, where i bought vinyl.
i figure that if i want to buy albums i really like, that i already have on the computer, i should buy them on vinyl. the chances of me listening to a record are much greater than the chances of me listening to a cd.
i bought the Arcade Fire's Funeral and Elf Power's Walking With The Beggar Boys. The latter came with a bonus CD with 2 exclusive songs. that's pretty cool.
i am looking for Neutral Milk Hotel's In The Aeroplane Over The Sea, but Rasputin didnt have it.
colin meloy is a good song writer. even his high school-era songs were good. his college ones were better, though. and the more recent ones are my favorite.
basically the Decemberists>Tarkio>Happy Cactus. but some of tarkio is better than some of the D-ists.

she will be going to orange county once a month, and seattle once every 2 months for business stuff.
some time, i am going to seattle with her. i've always wanted to go there, although i dont know why. i've heard it's a nice place.

what makes it so nice?

one good point that immediately comes to mind is the nice weather. It is never hot or humid, albeit it rains very often and gets very cold in the winter.

my dad, who went to the u-dub (over berkeley and yale), jokes about how you get a handful of days when it doesn't rain each year ... those are the days when it snows.
