Matt and I were super productive today. It’s when two metal types hang out together. I was on a mission to find an guest chair for my office and a shelf. So first we hit up some thrift stores (actually, a lot of thrift, antique, and vintage stores). We scored these wooden chairs for an…

How did they find me?
First, here’s the blog post about the presentation I helped Dave with at Lone Tree Elementary. Hmmm, there is a pile of letters from student loan providers piling up on my desk. Hmm! Anyway, besides my surprise at banks being able to find me here in Colorado, today was a good day. Although it felt…
Stand by me
So today I helped my boss present a speech for a group of elementary students here in Denver about two foundations he is on the board of directors for. It was a lot of fun, the kids were adorable, and it went very smoothly for how last minute it was. One of the foundations is…
Metal has never been so un-metal
Feeling a bit re-energized after a mixed Saturday followed by a super Sunday morning of finding Bob’s blog about his amazing adventures in Spain. My friends are such great writers, I’m thankful to those of you who struggle through each one of my illiterate posts. So Saturday: I wasn’t going to post a picture, but…
You deserve better
That list yesterday was horrible. I’m sorry. As I was filling it out I realized they weren’t remotely interesting random questions. Thanks for nothing, MySpace. I’m going to look at a car today and I’m pretty hopeful. Send good vibes my way.
More than 5: random questions

Best by 1991
Last Sunday I was making homemade pancakes for Susan and myself and I needed some baking powder. Standing on a chair and reaching all the way back into the cabinet above the microwave, I found this can of Calumet baking powder. Calument? I’ve never heard of this brand. I figured it was some weird hyper-organic-supa-fresh…
Two Door Cinema Club
I came across this guy’s (band’s, I’m not even sure) music videos on DesignPorn and think they are just super interesting. This is the most PG one. This also makes it the least weird one, but maybe it’ll pique your interest enough to see he’s other films. TWO DOOR CINEMA CLUB | What you know…
Little Mama, you got the time?
Ok, so public transportation. Pretty great, right? Pretty basic? I’ve used them in Chicago and I’ve conquered the tubes in London (hyperbole), but these Denver ones: they’re a bit tricky. Probably because I find them incredibly slow and limited. Also, cardinal directions are not the most easy thing to just know. Especially at noon. So…
Ich bin traurig
I do not feel happy and I probably shouldn’t be blogging because you know how I feel about only posting happy, optimistic things (that I should). Hmm. I can’t even think of anything to say that would be entertaining. I’ll tell it like a story: So I have been in Colorado now for 6 weeks…
