this has to be a new record…this is the third day in a row where i've been in a really good mood. things have been going much better the past few days, and i keep looking over my shoulder waiting for something bad to happen. but i guess looking over my shoulder isn't going to help if someone drops a safe on my head…

for paul: yet more proof that there are cute girls with webpages.

about a week ago i put new speakers in my car. these weren't really "new" speakers…they were just the nice speakers from my old car. they were much better than the ones that were in there, so i decided to finally go ahead and do some installin'. well about 3 or 4 days after i had my new "bumpin' system", one of the speakers developed a nasty rattle. it was seriously driving me apeshit. how can i drive if i can't enjoy music? ride around in silence? i think not… regarless, i ended up getting fed up to the point of heading out to the store and getting yet another set of speakers (my car must be totally fucking confused by this point), and i even got a set for the front of the car. new speakers all around! i sat out back installing speakers for about an hour and a half, and now…now…i have aural happiness. yes indeed.

side note: after taking the old speakers out, i discovered that i blew out the mid-range on one of them. oops. that's where that nasty rattle was coming from…

after posting my link to isgay.com the other day, i soon found out that the webmaster has taken the site down. that's a shame, because the site has given me hours of worthless enjoyment… a moment of silence, if you please.

thanks to brad, i may be considering a trip to memphis this may. it certainly sounds like a good idea to finally see sonic youth. now i just have to convince matt and paul…
