There Is Still an Open Network Near the Temporary Apartment

I cannot stop listening to this Jenny Lewis and the Watson Twins track (YouTube link). I can't put my finger on what it is tho.' Finals are all off on the MS project. I am waiting for changes which hopefully won't be too major. Also secret_hippie got her first Librarian Check™: OMG etc.!

Other than that not much. My chin is still up and all that. I start Aikido training again on Saturday (assuming we are not all buried under THE NW'S WORST SNOWSTORM EVER OMG WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE AIEEEEEEEE–*ahem* sorry, I keep having to visit the local tv station's websites to check school closures). SCC has been closed three days this week, Rona and secret_hippie have been out all week. Although Sar got tired of not doing Library stuff and went back yesterday and today. If things keep getting taken care of I may actually find time to go shoot pictures again: awesome.

I finally went out and bought the CD (Rabbit Fur Coat) because I couldn't stop watching her on YouTube. She's got an amazing voice and clever folk lyrics. The title track on the cd is about her mother basically pimping her as a child star, but it's not vindictive at all. She also does a good cover of the Traveling Wilbury's "handle with care", but it doesn't do anything new with the song. The album leans in a country direction, but in an old-fashioned, Loretta Lynn, not annoying sort of way.

I really like the whole album (my sister brought it out last Christmas) but I've recently come back to that one track. It is like crack to me... and a current close second to Ray LaMontagne:
