:: Song of the Week :: The Way Home - Boundary Blurring

I'm obsessed with this song!! It's one of those songs that just makes life feel like a movie or something.

Of course there's no video or audio available! GRR! But if you happen across this blog post, check out this site:

Um, EW.

My hand sanitizer makes me smell like an 80 yr old man. Like... that weird mix of too much bad cologne and just general old age smell. Gross.

::Song of the Week:: Alabama Shakes - Hold On

I want to see these guys!

::Song of the Week:: Dr. Dog - Lonesome

I have been slacking in the Song-of-the-Week department! Good thing no one actually reads my blog... because I never told anyone about it!

We ARE the walking dead...

It took me about 2 weeks to start and finish the entire printed Walking Dead book series... and now I'm so sad! When will the next one be out?!


At least Ian bought me "The Rise of the Governor"! This should hold me over for a bit.

High Hopes

I spend way too much time pinning wedding stuff for someone who's not engaged...

::Song of the Week:: Edward Sharpe & The Magentic Zeroes - Man on Fire

SOOOO they keep playing this awesome new song from ES&TMZ, but it's not available to purchase until like... sometime in MAY! LAME!

However, I did manage to find one YouTube "video" with it! =0)

::Song of the Week:: The Lumineers - Ho Hey

One of those songs that just warms your heart a tiny bit. 

::Retrospective Song of the Week:: Taylor Swift & The Civil Wars - Safe and Sound

OK so I've obviously been slacking with posting in general... but ignoring my song of the week is not acceptable. I won't let it happen again.

However, I at least need to squeeze in the song of the week from 3.18-3.24... which comes directly from The Hunger Games soundtrack and features a band I really like teaming up with a pop/country singer to make sweet, sweet music.

   


By the way, after waiting for months and months for The Hunger Games movie... I was ultimately pleased. They left out WAY too much information which really pissed me off.... but considering the movie was still 2.5 hours long, I get why they had to do it. But they better step it up for the next one, because Catching Fire is my favorite of the three books. I need to know who's gonna play Finnick!!

Flat Stanley's here!

Flat Stanley was created by my cousin's son, Tommy, in Scotch Plains, New Jersey. (Apparently kids all over the country have been doing this for years... I've never heard of it until now.)

FS has embarked on a kickass journey with the intention of visiting every one of Tommy's family members across America. He's already been with the Schmidts and Hoopers in California for quite some time and he had a blast! Just a few days ago, Flat Stanley arrived for his month in Pennsylvania with my parents and I. He'd been with my dad since his arrival, but I kidnapped him last night for a few days with me and Ian.

So far he's tagged along to work with me... but I plan on taking him out and about for some fun!

FS was so comfy in his guest room bed, he almost changed his mind about coming to work with me:


But when we got to the office, he was excited to hang out with graphic designers all day:


And then he made some new friends on my desk... who make him feel taller than usual:


Tonight we'll do something that's actually fun.

::Song of the Week:: Cold War Kids - Royal Blue

One of the best bands ever, I'm pretty sure. And even though Arcade Fire at the Mann Center was hands down the best concert I've ever been to... these guys at the TLA were definitely second best.

It's almost here!!!

The Hunger Games movie comes out this Friday! FINALLY!!

Can't wait!
