div class="losingIt"> need to write something other than code.
my head is officially about to explode. i can't handle any more CSS or XHTML. i was coding in my sleep--and not coding CODE, but coding weird things like my alarm clock and blankets and other stuff that didn't make any sense whatsoever.
apparently my ipod loves coldplay and hates trent reznor. after the NIN concert she just sat there and gave me the sad ipod face for about 5 hours--to the point where i thought i would have to return her to apple. then during the coldplay concert last night i felt compelled to check her status, and wouldn't you know she turned right on. i'm just waiting for her to suddenly delete my whole NIN collection sometime. i probably shouldn't tell her that i personally enjoyed the NIN concert more than coldplay. i mean both were great performances, but trent and the gang rocked my world.
i've also dedided that i really don't like big arena concerts. i think that's mostly what ruined my coldplay experience. first of all, i like to stand on a general admission floor. i like the freedom to come and go as i please. it sucks walking through the crowded, tight aisles of an arena where you feel like an ass every time you have to make people move. i like being able to wander around and get different views of the show, and the comfort of knowing that if i really tried, i could stand right by the stage. i like to drink my $3.25 rolling rock as opposed to the $5.50 butt light. i like not having to pay to park. i like not having to wait in line for hours trying to leave a show. i like not paying $25 dollars in taxes and "convenience charges" on top of my over-priced admission. i like having the realistic opportunity of being able to meet the artist.
so i vow not to waste any more money, patience and time on those big concerts--unless one of the following artists comes through town: radiohead, bruce springstein or boston (yes, boston). this also means that my favorite musicians are not allowed to get any more popular, so if you don't already listen to the following artists, please don't start: ryan adams, tegan & sara, rilo kiley, the decemberists, the shins, halloween alaska, guster, death cab, modest mouse, built to spill... (there's more but these are the main ones).
that's enough of that. back to programming. ugh.
