We went all Irish around here today. We don’t have the kids for St Patrick’s Day so we had a corned beef boiled dinner today. Jen’s mom and step father came over too. A good time was had by all. Youtube clips of the Tonight Show were viewed and enjoyed as well as the Lego Movie and a small mountain of corned beef.

Bruins Win
Nice comeback win for the Bruins. They won 3-2 in overtime.
…and all was right with the world.
Losers
The Bruins are losing to the Flyers.
2-1 with 2:30 left in the third.
We are not making the playoffs, are we.
I hate the Flyers.
Pay Attention, Dummy!
This is why I need to always be paying attention to music in Boston.
Big Dipper released a new album in 2012 and I didn’t hear about it until today.
Urgh, what an asshole I am.
Sure, Now it Works
One night last month I tried using the Logic Remote app to run GarageBand on my MacBook Pro. It connected after seemingly endless struggle and then worked so poorly that I shut it off.
Tonight, while not up against a deadline, I tried it with my iMac. It worked much better, though far from perfect. I give it a C overall.
Songs to Rerecord
Ive been thinking about which songs to rerecord, assuming I want to go through with that idea. I want to stick to songs that I don’t hate (there aren’t many) and maybe make some changes here and there.
I’m thinking of starting with this one from 2013’s RPM.
This is mostly okay, but I don’t like how it starts with the verse. It should also have a new ending.
Day Five – Solitude & the “Rule of Thirds”
Day Five – Love Your Theme
I knew it. The day after I change my theme blogging 101 tells em to try three new themes. Well, I tried at least three yesterday and actually kept one of them. I’ll call this day’s challenge completed.
Music Discovery New Years Resolution Continues
So if I can embed Spotify urls into wordpress, then I can share things I’ve been listening to as part of my New Years Resolution to find new bands to listen to.
From Boston, MA we have Mean Creek whose Local Losers record is a current favorite.
The big winner so far is a Scottish band called The Twilight Sad. They are a little bit… what’s the word… gothier? Maybe? A little bit gothier than I usually go for, but the album Nobody Wants to be Here and Nobody Wants to Leave has wormed its way into my brain and it absolutely will not go away.
More to come later.
Comfy?
Sure, fine, make yourself at home.
