Welcome!

Hello and welcome to the best year of the decade... We are now living the 21st century teens, but in all reality, the decade has not matured yet, and I would say it is still a "pre-teen." 2010 marks the start of a decade we can almost call by a normal name, as there is confusion mentioned in the previous sentence. However, at least we do not have to call it the "zero's" or the "naught's" or any of the other ridiculous names that were used to describe the first 10 years of this millenium.

So, my new year started in my homestate of New York, and as I am completely sick of the cold, M.N. wanted to send me off with a little something to remember her by. I think I have been sick (however minor it might be) with a head cold since I came home just before Thanksgiving. Oh well, I arrived in South Carolina last night after a long day of driving. I also went to Philadelphia on the way down to see my sister. She took me out in downtown Wilmington, Delaware, which was surprisingly fun! The bar we went to was hosting Kristin and the (mother f'in) Noise, a great cover band that played in my sister's college town a lot when she was enrolled undergrad. I had a really nice night filled with dancing and keeping my sister and her friends entertained. Yesterday, I drove down the eastern "oceanboard" (instead of seaboard, because its an ocean). I did have company for a change though, as my last few drives up and down to school, Florida, and other cross-country ventures have been by myself. My friend from Jersey drove with me and we were a good driving team, details do not to be explained, but there were no fights in the car for 11 hours. Watched Pineapple Express with Teeb's last night and there were some parts where I couldn't stop laughing... It actually started to hurt! Anyways,... I have a lot of unpacking to do today and getting settled. Exciting stuff today: grocery shopping, textbook shopping, parking permit shopping, etc. I don't know if you can consider all that "shopping" but it needed a common bond.

Brief album note ---> I started my album listening experience and haven't gotten very far, but I did listen to the Abbey Road album and truly felt enchanted by this work of art. With songs like "Oh, Darling," "I Want You (She's so heavy)," and "Here Comes the Sun," this Beatles work is one of the greatest in all of music. So ahead of their time and so freakin' timeless...
*Side note*** I recently watched the "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" movie and was very pleased with it.. The plot and cinematics were slightly lacking, but the music is great and the cameos are unforgettable. Steve Martin singing "Maxwell's Silver Hammer" was quite creepy, but very memorable. And Steven Tyler fighting with Peter Frampton, now that was a great scene!

Thanks for Reading! ;) Until next time...
