Lolla is coming...Lolla is coming!!!!!

About Me

I'm a city girl. I have been so lucky to meet wonderful people through sort of random circumstances. I have the most amazing, wonderful, gorgeous man ever!! I met my friend Tammy and we instantly clicked because of our mutual forgetfulness amplified by a few cocktails. Jenn just showed up one day in the cube next to me at work and we have been friends ever since (after I knew she would be around longer than a week!!) I reconnected with a dear high school friend at our reunion (which i wasn't even gonna go to). My 2 randomly assigned roomies from UIUC are 2 of my bestest friends to this day. I love going to shows. Lolla was awesome this year..one of the highlights of my summer. Rilo Kiley was a great show...her voice is sooooo beautiful! Interpol at the Aragon was amazing...that venue is so incredible and the sound was awesome. I won tics to see Aimee Mann (one of my favorites!!) at park West from XRT AND I won tickets to see Robert Randolph and the Family Band at House of Blues...best things I have every won!!! I started a myspace page because my friend threatened to make one up for me if I didn't do it myself. I LOVE CHOCOLATE.

Books:

"No matter how corrupt, greedy, and heartless our government, our corporations, our media, and our religious and charitable institutions may become, the music will still be wonderful. If I should ever die, God forbid, let this be my epitaph:THE ONLY PROOF HE NEEDED FOR THE EXISTENCE OF GOD WAS MUSIC"Kurt Vonnegut(1922-2007)I am reading The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay right now...a book my amazing man picked out for me!!
