I just couldn't find a particular album to blog about today, so I hope you will settle for some odds and ends, at least until I get fed up with my inability to focus on anything and quit in mid-sentence. I gave some thought to blogging about Neko Case's The Tigers Have Spoken, but decided that my knowledge of the material wasn't current enough to do it. Maybe another day.
I am fairly excited that both Neko Case and A.C. Newman are putting out solo albums in 2009! Newman is touring to support his album - hopefully Case will, too - so with any luck, I'll have at least one decent show to go to next year.
Christmas is coming up. I can't lie to a blog, even, I don't enjoy the holidays much. But it will be kind of nice to see family, and just be out of the office for a few days. Hopefully the weather is nice or at least not terribly seasonal.
Also I am going to see the Dandy Warhols for New Year's! More on this to come, but I'm already excited.

Well, not really.
About Me
- Bones of an Idol
- Professionally, I work in information technology for a school. I do a little of everything: support, training, database, website, purchasing, strategy. My job appeals to my love of challenges, solving problems, and helping people.
Outside of work, I enjoy exercise (I used to practice capoeira, but largely run and lift weights now), writing short fiction, and playing the guitar. I am a largely self-taught guitarist and generally do not rock very hard.
I am currently enrolled in the MBA program at Drake University. Focusing on my coursework has curtailed my 'hobbies' somewhat, but I plan to graduate in Fall of 2013.
I am partial to travel, cats, black licorice and peanut butter.
