Quick updates in case you missed them in the other spots:
- Great weekend in DC. Met a new old friend. Walked. Ate. Pictures to follow.
- Quite wonderful show Monday night in Raleigh with Tokyo Police Club (been obsessed for a couple of years), Said the Whale (been amused for a couple of months), and Geographer (I didn’t dislike them but they were an odd addition to this lineup).
- Still pondering a major road trip in August.
- Next week’s exciting destination: a conference presentation in (hold on…) Columbia, South Carolina!
- Planning to buy a new desktop in the next few weeks. And a new bathroom.
- Major project winding down and hoping I’ll be maybe a little less overextended for the next year and I can focus a bit more on both the websites rather than just on the short attention span posts.
I have been a big fan of Tokyo Police Club’s music ever since I saw them open for Electric Six around the time of their debut EP (so, 2006-ish?) but if I can be a bit shallow for a moment, they are just *adorable,* especially Graham. My gosh he makes me feel like a 16 year old fangirl.
Yeah, and the way he does that geeky, bouncy thing while he’s playing is quite precious. My loyalty was originally to David but since he cut the shaggy hair all bets are off…
