Chicago MMXII

Jenny, you will like them. I bet Nick and Sarah would too. Anyone who likes super catchy UK pop with girl singer and post-punk moments.

niiiiiiiiiiiick where did you put those tracks you recorded most recently with (i think?) sarah and ben that i liked a lot?
are they downloadable somewhere?

dan, strangely enough, S and I also went to the Globe for a drink on Saturday, and I was also reminiscing about pub quiz. Might also be pub for tomorrow night, though I have a 12.5 hour day on Wednesday, so perhaps I should just make it an early night.

i think i set it so you have to pay to download but i can email them to you once i'm at home if you remind me

yaaay
ok
i just remember liking them a lot and i want to put more fun stuff on my running ipod
trying to make myself want to do that again requires some planning...

i still need to rerecord the other song we tried to do that didn't come out due to 4-track problems.

Hey, we'll be able to sneak spiced gumdrops into the Century movies:

Good news! I like CVS.

Wait. Did we already talk about the fact that there will be a gigantor Walgreens competing with it? We talked about these matters separately, but it seems like there will be a face/off at some point.

Oh, guess what? The place where Dominick's burned down and will never rise again (3050 N. Broadway)? It's going to be home to a Mariano's!

yeeesh

i'm playing with advance base at the empty bottle next tuesday btw. free show if you rsvp in advance on their site. all our shows are on tuesdays for some reason.

I'll do it and cover the playwrights, if folks want to.

i'm thinking about it! i'll decide by the end of the day.

I'm not in for trivia.

so the people possibly in for quiz are me, john, eazy, and maybe amanda? i'm feeling kind of headachey right now so i'd be ok with waiting for a week with better topics but i'll go if everyone else does. i do want to go soon though, i miss pub quiz.

I would go next week. I'm broke today.

i could go next week too

those topics aren't really my cup of curly fries

I'll go either week. But Nick can't go next week b/c he's playing that show at the Bottle.

oh :(

not in for pub quiz this week as I have made the thoroughly adult decision that I must be in bed by 9:30 tonight. I will then use pharmaceuticals to get myself to sleep.

well let's just go some other time then. i think the ice hockey category would kill us this week, unless dan could come.

it is attractive but there is a mountain of laundry in my house that ain't getting any smaller and tonight it goes DOWN

i am thinking of going back to ddpp tomorrow anyway

after my LONG PAINFUL ABSENCE

man, sarah misses DDPP so much :(

:( i do too

go for all of us, amanda!!

i believe i will! i'm just gonna hold my nose and keep going if the music is terrible.

I should sell my playwright knowledge to the random trivia table that buys me dinner.

I'm disappointed about no pub quiz tonight. :(

But laundry is a pretty good idea.

crispin glover at the music box this weekend: http://www.musicboxtheatre.com/collections/crispin-hellion-glover-returns/

i saw that
when does the cave dude have his thing there? is that happening? i keep checking the website and it keeps saying the same thing.

I can't stop sneezing and one time my ex boyfriend had a friend who sneezed so much he sneezed a hole in his lung and is this going to happen to me???? I sneezed while writing this, btw.

Jenny I think of your username several times a day whilst calling denizens of the Raleigh-Durham area.

All credit due to Amanda, who encourages us all to replace "Cleveland Steamer" with "The Old Fuquay-Varina."

hahahahaaa

Oh no....the little crab! I was so scared that the doofus Dane was going to get his nose pinched!

hahahaa

I had no idea Great Danes were such doofuses. The one w/ the tub at the beginning is a fave. And the one freaked out by the DVD screensaver.

they are doofuses like you wouldn't believe, also droolers

after watching the video I have to say I hate seeing them with pinned ears, their normal big floppy ears are so great

Yeah. Pinned ears seem really awful all around.

I stopped sneezing! Now I can't stop coughing! I hate everything!

You need to bee dictated - ha auto correct - MEDICATED.

You should be medicated, and often, and by someone who knows how.

I just watched that video again and now I kinda want to start a great dane thread, but I'm afraid it'd just turn into me posting pictures of Vonn and I can do that on fb already

it's more fun to post pictures of one's dog here
trust me

dogs are great dogs dogs dogs moar threads about DOGS

that is a great thread of dogs in general doing hilarious things but I was thinking more dane-specific

although this dude is way awesome and much much bigger than Vonn

dogs are great dogs dogs dogs moar threads about DOGS

Sorry, I didn't mean to just toss that link in without saying anything.

I was just FYI'ing you.

This is more appropriate for the Skokie MMXII thread, but: in another thread, I recommended

to Jesse. Good food and the best people-watching anywhere.
