Work Sucks

Heard Wish Upon a Dog Star (Satellite Party) last night on my way home on Ethel. Glad they've picked it up, still waiting for the cd release, May 15th.

My mom comes into town tonight. We're sewing tomorrow, hoping to get a bunch of cool ties done and ready to mail. I've done 242 so far, with another 40 in the closet I'd forgotten about that need to be filled and stitched, and probably another almost 200 that are in the midst of being serged now. The Russian says he'll shopvac-flip them tonight, so tomorrow maybe I can get someone else to press them for me :)

Work sucks.

Lolla lineup is announced in 6 days. Ozzfest is going to be Freefest this year, Carl says to see if I can get tickets. The problem here is that it's in STL on August, which means either we get up early the day after Lolla and drive from Chicago, or we go back to Chicago on the 10th for theirs. It will probably just depend on which one I can get tickets for, and more probably, whether I can get tickets at all. I can't figure out how this is going to work...the announcement is being made June 12th on what we're supposed to do, but I don't have much faith in their servers to handle the kind of traffic, and if it's anything like the Lolla souvenir ticket sale it'll be bad.

Still leaning towards the Congress for Lolla unless I get a compelling reason for staying elsewhere. It's close and not too pricey for what it is. House of Blues is another possibility, but I think it's further away and I'd really like to be as close as possible. I keep hoping that JP will have an apartment close by we could stay at. :) Right, Carl? :) :) :)

Did I mention work sucks?

Listening to: Ruby, the Kaiser Chiefs (btw, how is everyone liking Yours Truly, Angry Mob so far? I'm digging it with 2 shovels...even better than Employment)
