Just voted… I had to vote provisionally though even though I registered. I am kind of annoyed but whatever it still felt so good to vote for Obama today, I have never felt this way about any other candidate.

Go out and vote!

***Edit***
I am so very happy that Obama won last night but a little upset that one of our Props didn’t get knocked down. The Gay Marriage prop here in the southland passed and I am very disappointed. Just when you think we are progressing something like this happens… I guess we will get there someday…
I would love to hear some of you experiences at the polls, it has been so quiet around here, no one has been commenting. :-(

It is quite a daunting task to re-install everything and try to get re-organized again… It sucks to be frank. I mean yeah my computer is running faster but my life is all over the place… To make matters worse I totally forgot about backing up my bookmarks! I just lost 6 years of my internet life… Devastating… Yes, I am being a tad over dramatic about the whole wiping of the computer thing but I had a ton of bookmarks and there were memories in those bookmarks… Most of all I miss the way everything was set up like the way Firefox, Songbird and Photoshop were nicely organized just the way I liked them… All of that is gone out the window and I have to try to get it back. Help me!

So I sit here tonight listening to the new teaser from Antony and the Johnsons entitled Another World. A five track sampler of the full length, The Crying Light, set to be released January 09. Another World is a beautiful EP that has totally sparked my interest in the new album. Relax and enjoy.

So I was really naughty this weekend and didn’t do any work to my computer. My plan was that I would work on it on Sunday but I was so tired from the night before (went to a fancy wedding and had too much champagne) that I totally vegged all day and did nothing of any substance.

Anyways I am backing up all the goods tonight and will be wiping the slate clean tomorrow. I will be back with new music either tomorrow night or Wednesday night. Antony and The Johnsons and much more soon to come. I do apologize for being such a lazy ass, but I do appreciate that you guys still love me!

I just hope I have everything backed up and nothing goes terribly wrong… Such a pain in the ass but this is long over due. My laptop keeps crashing every time I post and it is just ridiculous. Hopefully all of this will be solved. Good night

I didn’t think it could get any worse under this administration… And then this happened.

Hey folks, Pip here.

So Rachel has been sick all week, then better, then sick again with a really bad flu.  So sick that she had to miss the show in San Diego with Beck and many others.  A sad day indeed.

Of course this also meant total neglect of this place, but that will change this weekend at some point as soon as she gets back up on her feet.  Send your love and warm wishes her way.

I have not updated since forever but it is because I have not been feeling well the last few days. Hopefully I will start feeling better and I can post about the Radiohead concert… Till then I hope everyone had a lovely long weekend here in the states. New post soon to come…

Oh yes. I have been totally engrossed in the Olympic games this past week, which is why I have been M.I.A. I have been enjoying watching Michael Phelps swim his way to victory in every event and the women’s gymnastics as well.

Also, my grandma flew out so I was visiting with her for a bit before her, my mom and my Aunt flew to Cancun Mexico for my grandma’s 80th B-day. Three Jewish women in Cancun Mexico… WTF? I don’t know it wasn’t my idea. I will be back Sunday with a new post. Till then my sweets! :-)

Hey everyone I have a lot of stuff I want to post but I have just been beat when I get home lately… Work has been taking it out of me and plus for the last week I have had a headache everyday. I think the headaches are just stress headaches from work but I will be back tomorrow hopefully with a new post. Thanks for your patience. Juggling work and new music is not an easy thing, so I appreciate your support. :-)

Friday was my birthday… So yeah happy birthday to me! I kind of feel a bit old… Normally I embrace my birthday with open arms being an only child and all I kind of make it a big deal… But this year I have realized I am a bit scared of getting older. I still had a marvelous weekend though… Great food, great laughs and good times with friends and family… It was fabulous. ;-)

I thought it would be a perfect time to mention the ethereal Sigur Ros and their new album, Med Sud I EyrumVid Spilum Endalaust , which translates to “with a buzz in our ears we play endlessly”. Their new album seems to be much more relatable, a bit more down to earth and fundamental then their passed albums, which all seemed to be fueled by abstract post-rock. This album is colorful, uplifting, expressive and beautiful. Highly recommended. (That is two in a row I might add)

The week just disappears… One day it is Monday and then all of a sudden it is Friday. Sorry I didn’t post last week except for Coldplay. I will be on it this week and I will be back later on this evening with some new music. Hope you all have a lovely day!
