Tape Worms

So Erin, a lovely lady that I work with sent me a bunch of old advertisements today...enjoy:

Thursdays

Who knew so much was happening on Thursdays...it's like the new Friday!

Check this out! - varsity always makes for a good time
And This... - Fashion! and pools.
or THIS! - not so fashionable, but rad.
St. Paul has it too - particularly The Haves Have It

OMG...it's Lohan

Ok - so I've never posted about any celebrity before...and hopefully this is a one-time deal. But this is just TOO RIDICULOUS for me to not mention!

This girl has got to get her act together...out of control right now, and not in the good way! Damn girl.

Insomnia

So I've been having strange bouts of insomnia lately - and let me tell you - it sucks. That's right. Not getting sleep sucks. Apparently I'm somewhere between Transient and Acute Insomnia. Lame. Good thing google exists and I was able to find some awesome advice. Right.

I don't have really anything to rant or rave about...so that's it for now I guess.

Can't handle it!

This past weekend was so fun my head almost exploded. I kid you not. Let me give you the play-by-play.

So it has kind of been a goal of mine lately to make it to more shows...I need a good dose of creativity in my life. Friday night started with me meeting up w/ friends at the Terminal Bar in St. Anthony to check out Drinking with the Reverend. Don't be a fool and not go see these guys...they're a riot. Any band with a stand up bass and a bingo lottery between songs gets my seal of approval. If you have any reverence for religion, Jesus, or God - these guys might not be for you; but if you have a sense of humor you'll probably be ok.

After DWTR I made a pit-stop at the 331 Club. Thank you Oulman's for creating life in NE. Speaking of NE - it's blowing up - have you heard? Not only do the Gerricks, EC, Alicia, and their friend Shey live in NE - Mike & I will be residing there sooner rather than later as well. Due to power outages I made my way over to St. Paul for a good nights rest...like I was going to stay at home w/o power...I'm too big of a wimp!

Saturday was Chuck's birthday & Dance Party USA or DPUSA if you like acronyms (which I do). Not that I don't love Chuck, but DPUSA killed it. My brother and some of his friends made it out to another epic evening of too much love at 1st ave. If anyone has photos of Shawn killing it in the dance off please send them to me! Yeah to Evil Pat, Benji, Nate, Tuck & Stace, Tyler, EC, Lee, Shawn, Neal, Beth, Sarah & Mike for the killer moves.

Sunday was low key compared to Saturday night...but still a lot of fun. Mike & I went to the Red Sea (conveniently located near MPLS's finest crack stacks) to check out Sam 2 (or Mexico Sam) or to some people - just plain Sam - 's band play. They go by the moniker Shoreline and they will rock you to the core. Listen to their demo - but understand you have to see them live to fully appreciate how rad they are. There's something awesome about feeling powerless and full of power when listening to live music - and these guys give you that feeling...and I'm not just saying that because I know Sam is going to read this.

So anyway - I missed Pirates of the Caribbean at Solera last night to check out Shoreline, but I will be hitting it up tonight for POTC II if all goes well. Remember - mojitos are on special!

Too much hating...or love

Get ready! Too much love is back...it was only gone for 1 day...regardless...it's back! After I stuff my face with pad thai and cranberry puffs at than do for chuck's birthday extravaganza I'm getting my dance on!

I think I'm going to drag the little brother out to the dance party...show him another side of good ol mpls...he can handle it...can you?

DON'T FORGET! Pirates of the Caribbean & mojitos this Sunday night at Solera...if I can't go to the carib this year I can at least watch movies about it and drink.

Hey One on One - I want my bike!

Us Weekly

Oh NO you didn't. Don't you try & call me out on blogslacking...I at least post about more than articles in US Weekly. That's right. I said it.

July 28th - 8:00pm

If you're looking for something fun to do on a Saturday night (and I know you are) you should check out the new show at Umber Gallery by Andy Ducett and Ben Garthus. Hosted at the lovely Umber space - you're sure to have a good time!
