I can't listen to Black Mountain enough. Every moment that I can be listening to them I do. It hits me like an unexplainable combination of my favorite bands. I'm thinking along the lines of Zeppelin with a dash of Wolfmother with a side of Pink Floyd for dipping. I really think a lot of today's music is missing what Black Mountain has. Fucking talent. A lot of the new music coming out doesn't have substance. There are only a few bands that I look forward to releasing albums. They are Red Hot Chili Peppers, Incubus, Wolfmother (if they are still in fact together), Foo Fighters, Spoon, Tool, and probably Ben Kweller. The rest of the music out there is shit. Yeah, Weezer has yet another album out. But it's never going to be what the Blue album was. You have Modest Mouse and I'd be modest in saying that their last album was as good as the last. Snow Patrol fucking blows now. As do The Killers. They're trash now. Death Cab isn't cool anymore. Beck has done too many psychedelics, even for me. Coldplay has been gay for a long time. Dave Matthews was never ever good. Especially after he wrote a song about molesting little kids and whats worse is he admitted that is what the song was about. And the others that I didn't mention don't even deserve mention. So if I haven't talked about it and mentioned it enough, you need to get one or both of Black Mountain's major releases. That is all there is to it.

I can't believe some of the locations where you visitors originate. I knew I had visitors in Australia. I didn't expect Mexico. I didn't expect Columbia or Pakistan. And I sure as shit didn't expect to have visits from the Turks and Caicos Islands. And India, why?

I attempted to move into my new place tonight. Instead I found my bedroom cannot sustain a large bed like I have. Too many doors that open into the room. So tonight, I find myself sleeping on my couch at my old apartment. I'll be in NYC in two days. I'll be there around this time Wednesday. A friend of mine is letting me borrow her gps. I like road trips with gps.

Ohh god am I starting to feel old. I feel as if I have found a job that I'm going to be at for a while. They were talking about something that isn't going to happen until next year, but they were still telling me about it. That really is a crazy feeling. I haven't worked anywhere that we talked about that far ahead. Different feeling that is for sure. It is all cool beans… I'm don't mind working there. The job definitely has its perks to say the least. It's crazy to be able to write down my 2 year plan on a piece of paper. Car, house, save money, pay back loans, and be ready to start my own business. The funny thing about it all is I want to keep my job and get other people to run my business while I work where I am now. It's a pretty good idea too. I know there will be some good money in it. Business plan is already on its way. I have a document consisting of a few pages already. And best part about it all is I will have a sailboat in the meantime.

I'm so excited to be able to go out on Lake Erie on a fucking sailboat. Holy shit is that going to be a whole lot of fun. The fucking even has a room to sleep in. Can't beat that shit. I'm definitely going to put a wine cooler in it so I can keep wine chilled while out on the boat.

If you should read on, there is a picture of the boat we are getting.
