If you like your music filled with rock and puppets, you should go here and check out Uncle Monsterface's new album, This is an Adventure. They make wonderfully fun and catchy music, in addition to being good friends of ours.
Also, their live show is not to be missed. They play shows in New York quite often and they're going on a national tour this summer.

This was an incredible sight. Not quite what we expected to come across at 111th St. and Amsterdam Ave.


I know that Carissa has already posted most of these, but I wanted to recap, via photos, our all-night adventure. We decided to go out Saturday night and stay out until (at least) sunrise on Sunday morning. Special thanks to John and Robin for making it through the night with us and also seeing the sun come up, though sadly, on the platform waiting for the F train. ( Click for photos )
I'm going to write a post about our all night excursion in New York City. It will be here soon. First, we are going to take a walk and I'm going to call my Mommy. I'm also thinking of using this as a photoblog. We'll see how that goes.
As mandated by Carissa.
She is typing right now. Randolph never updates his journal. I asked him to update. He said he didn't want to. I told him I'd help him through it. I'll choose a bunch of topics. He types his opinion on each. Thirty words or less. Simple? I'd have to agree.
Here are the topics.
1/New year's resolutions
2/The possible extinction of the American buffalo
3/Snow
4/The three [modern] contributors of the English language (being French, German, and Dutch)
5/The latest issue of apt
6/Which is cuter? Welsh Corgis or Pomeranians?
7/The state of readership in the United States
8/This one is totally self-serving...talk about my book.
9/Excitement over 2008, wherefore?
That's it. We'll cap it at nine.
And...go.
Apparently, after attempting to hand the laptop to Randolph, he assumed I was taking dictation.
So, I'm the one who shall "go."
1/A very bad idea. They are akin to giving gifts to the one you love only on Valentine's Day.
2/This seems strange to me as David Mamet told me everything would be fine. But, I...you--my people...
3/I remember playing in feet of it as a child. I'm positive I would do that now if it would only snow.
4/Each are a very strange people in their own way (typist's note: As if Americans aren't strange...), but the Germans moreso than the others. Thanks for the words.
5/I am always amazed by the quality of writing we receive. I wish we had the money to make it a print magazine. An actual magazine, not a 'zine.
6/Oh Jesus. Jesus, honey. Stop it. This is like asking which is more important to human life: air or water? Next.
7/Can we move there?
8/I love how much it has grown and changed since I first read it. I still enjoy reading it and I hope you're happy with it.
9/Okay, list, GO!

( Booky stuff )
I just got back from a wonderful date with my bride. :)
After a long but rewarding day at work, I made my way to Davis Square to meet Carissa. We headed to Anna's where we had long-awaited burritos and then we were off to Somerville Theatre to see The Departed. It was a very good and very violent movie that neither of us ever really wants to watch again.
Oh, I'm also married now. I'll post more on that later. And, our Thanksgiving vacation begins in one week. Yay!
For now, bedtime.

The wedding is only nine days away. I'm so excited. I can't temper my excitement for anything: the wedding, Montréal, Thanksgiving, my birthday, etc. Things at work are also going very well. I'm finishing projects that have taken way too long and I'm getting other things done as I go.
My life? Not too shabby. :)

I almost forgot, we used our new ice cream maker for the first time last night. We made mint chocolate chip. It's delicious.
Today has been such a busy day at work.
