A Little Bit of Everything


  • I think my coffee grinder just broke.  I put coffee beans in it and they didn’t really “grind”, they just sort of spun around and got angry, and a few of them chipped a bit.  There is no way this is going to produce anything that resembles coffee….that means I have to run across the street to CVS and get crappy coffee for the morning because there is no way I’m going to the grocery store.  Bummer.
  • Daylight savings was today, and although I LOVED having an extra hour yesterday, as well as how light it was this morning, I loathe that it was getting dark on my way home from the gym and to make matters worse it’s COLD.
  • I FINALLY got to see one of my favorite musicians Saturday night in Louisville: Conor Oberst.  Also M. Ward played with him (And Jim James & Mike Mogis) as part of a Folk Supergroup.  It was PHENOMINAL.  I desperately wish they would book a show in Indianapolis but I know that is just simply too much to ask.
  • I also saw the Avett Brothers Friday night (both shows in Louisville) - went on a mini-vacation of music and friends for the weekend.  The Avett Brothers put on an AMAZING show.  They will be here in town in February - I will definitely be checking that out.  I love it when performers have such a presence on stage.
  • Saw another Coen Brothers movie last night - I’m working my way through their collection.  Barton Fink - definitely weird, I did like it but it was a little slow in parts.  Loved the characters and the burning hotel at the end.
  • Movie season is starting to pick up.  Hopefully I will be going to see Men Who Stare at Goats this weekend.  It looks interesting and funny.

  1. I hear you about the coffee! I keep apologizing to Lindsay about the generic decaf I bought for work. It tastes like bark.

  3. What a fun weekend. I’ll have to check out that music … Also maybe you should get the Cuisinart coffee pot that grinds beans also - it does make really good coffee.
