Last night was pretty cool. I went to Mass after work, then hit three Barns & Nobles looking for some AllMusic guides. I ended up having to settle for 1001 Albums You Have to Hear Before You Die. Because sad as it may seem, this is often how I decide what music to listen to.

– HAPPY BIRTHDAY –
Josh.
– QUESTION OF THE DAY –
What is the creepiest book you’ve ever read. I don’t mean a book that just scared you as a child.
– Yesterday was realtively unmemorable. One significant development: I finally figured out how to burn MP3s to my player so that I can listen to them. Yay! Also (minor Deadwood spoiler): I am increasingly unimpressed with Mrs. Garrett.

Suppose you run a gas station, and you have to give customers a key to get into the bathroom. What do you attach to the end of the key?
– I’ve been deeply involved in my job search, and it’s superceded writing in demands on my time lately. Some good news is that my wife and I were able to lock down a car at a pretty good deal (her parents helped us), and we’ll drive it back to New York this weekend.

– QUESTION OF THE DAY –
Does your high school have a website?
If so, please share!
– Finished Tenebre. Watched Deadwood.
– QUESTION OF THE DAY –
How many tattoos do you have, and what are they of, and where?
