Back popular demand.

So yes, I agree with you, a blog is meant to be updated, that's kind of the point isn't it? Well, again its been a while, but I will try to update you here.
I am currently away from home, spending the next two weeks working at an English language camp, on the campus of the Hertha BSC training grounds at Olympiastadion in Berlin. For all intents and purposes I am 'out of town,' as I am meant to be here on the camp for 24hr/day for the next 12 days. I am within mobile phone reception range, and was able to secure at WiFi network, so if you need me majors, hit me here.
So what's up lately?
Just got back from a big trip to the US. Originally planned to stay three days, but was swooned by New England and stayed on an extra week. It was lovely. Great wedding in Philly for my brother and Leslie, lots of time in NE with family, going to the Cape and beach with my good friend, can't ask for much more. Well, acutally you can. When in New Hampshire, I got a tattoo for the beagle.
Being in the US got me launched back on watching some crappy tv shows. Judge not, but I have been watching the Denise Richards show and Living Lohan among others. They are hilarious, and if have a sense of humor and a certain level of self-irony I would highly recommend them.
As far as current listening, I loaded up the new pod (thanks CJ and Les) with the new Frightened Rabbit, Coldplay, and Scarlett Johansson records. I have listened to FR so many times that I am fearful that I am wearing down the grooves in the digital files. The Coldplay is surpsingly bearable, thank you Mr Eno. And let me say, the Johansson is delightful and anyone who says otherwise has no idea about avantgarde and pop musical history (listen to Nico, David Bowie, Patti Smith and Jesus & Mary Chain, idiots!). I proudly say that I purchased the record, twice, as well as the follow-up live and rarities EP.
Like just about every other mac geek in the world I am bananas over the 3g iPhone. I ordered mine on the day after the announcement and am still waiting for its delivery. I don't blame apple for the delay (they can never do wrong in my eyes, it seems) but chalk it up to t-mobile being false promisers (my dad will back me up when it comes to t-mobile bashing). So still waiting. Maybe I will blog from it when it arrives and it will give that pretentious "sent from my iPhone" footer.
