Frauniebarger Friday

Here is a little introduction video for Frauniebarger. You'll have to excuse the bad quality on their first vids, I didn't have a lot to work with. I thought I might start doing a Frauniebarger Friday series to show love to my fav. band that's trying to get their name out there a little more. Here is the first song on their album "Graverobbers."

Kate Bush

So I did get something done the other day. I cleaned. And I've been cleaning for the past couple of days and it still looks like a hobo lives here. However, I did find my camera (phew!). I should never have gone for the sleek and slim camera. I'm always setting it down somewhere and it disappears. What I really need to be doing right now is homework. I just can't make myself do it. This class I'm taking is bullshit. Every assignment feels like those busy work worksheets you got in the fourth grade because your teacher didn't know what to do with you. And the one that is due in two days is particularly tedious and annoying. Anyway, as you may have noticed from the last blog, I finally figured out how to post mp3's. I was pretty excited. So I think I will post another favorite of mine today. I have been listening to Kate Bush since I was born. I think not enough people know about her here in the States. As a friend once told me, "I imagine that soon the whole world will know what your mom and I already know...that Kate Bush is the virgin Mary..." Yes, she is that good. She was actually discovered by David Gilmour, yeah. Here is one of her earlier songs "Wuthering Heights." This song helped launch her career and it is a great song based on a great book. Enjoy.

Cat Nap Monday

I'm really, really bad at updating this thing. You know I used to be really good at this. I kept numerous journals from 4th grade till about 10th grade. You know, until boys were more important than writing. That's when I lost it. Since then I have not been able to keep a steady journal of any type. But I am really gonna give this one the old college try again. Because I really do love to write. And I think it's important to have an outlet like this. So today I am skipping school. I do this pretty much every Monday b/c I only have one class on campus on Mondays. And Chase's band practices on Monday nights right around the time I have class. So I just skip Monday's so they can practice at a decent hour. However, this gives me lots of free time to do as I please with the place to myself. Which I usually end up wasting on extended cat naps. So I'm gonna try and do something constructive today. Wish me luck.
