Monday Update

As of today I have lost 15 pounds. :-D And it's only been three weeks! I rule.

I have been listening to "The Art of Breaking" by Thousand Foot Krutch at least once a day, often more.

I have been repeatedly listening to "Whatever they say I am, that's what I'm not" by Arctic Monkeys

I am thrilled that "Show Your Bones" by Yeah Yeah Yeahs finally came out. That has been in heavy rotation as well.

Right now, I am listening to the untitled debut album by the band "She Wants Revenge". I love this CD. This is my first full listen, and I am pleased. I have a bunch of candles lit, it's past Midnight, and this is perfect music for right now.

I have a CD I need to listen to soon -- I bought "Dying to say this to you" by The Sounds

I also have 4 CD's that D. burned for me. I listened to the Nick Cave compilation he made me, that was great. I have to hear it again. He also gave me "My Mother's Hymn Book" by Johnny Cash, I know I will like that, because I like any & all Man in Black. The CD I had a tough time getting into was The Mars Volta, it's a bit jarring, but I'll give it another try. The last CD in the bunch is a cool mix CD of odd cover tunes, like Tori Amos doing "Smells Like Teen Spirit" that sort of thing.

Speaking of D., he will be here in 8 days! Hard to believe. I am sure things will go well between us, but still it makes me a tad nervous meeting him in person. I have known him since November, and it will be an adjustment to be together in person, but it is time for it to happen. I don't want either of us dwelling in the land of imagination about each other. We need to meet the real person, not hold an image of each other in our minds. That can lead to a lot of trouble. We are friends with potential, but we are both hoping that maybe it will become more. We shall see. Either way, we are good friends, and I'm sure we'll have fun.

& That's my news for today.
