Those rainy days they ain't so bad when you're the King.....

Have I told you how much I'm obsessed with Kings of Leon? It is becoming somewhat of a problem. It's all I've been listening to for the past 6 months, and it has been nonstop since I saw them last weekend in BC. Lovin' this song, "Fans" off the album Because of the Times. Caleb's hair looks soooo much better short. Back to the rhythm, back to the beat of the radio.....

I miss you lady......

I miss you too, Frizz! So Frank and I have outgrown our tiny little 750 square foot house in Ballard. The big news as of late is the move to our new house, in Ballard of course! We are in the process of moving in to the new place, and have been for the past few weeks.
This past weekend, the landlord at my soon to be former residence wanted to have an open house. Much to Franks chagrin, the cat carrier came out and he had to make the short journey to the new place. So he's been living at the new house, while I've been staying at the old house because my bed is still here. I feel naked without him! I'm so used to him following me around like a dog, I miss my little mostly black, but a little white, shadow:( I visited him three times yesterday though, despite the fact that I had to work. Crazy cat lady? Indeed. I woke up early and went over to the new place before work and took a nap with him on the floor, then stopped by to say hello on my lunch break, then swung by to give him some goodnight snuggles on my way home from work.

I'm having the cable and internet set up tomorrow, so I think I'll start sleeping there soon, even if I have to sleep on the floor. I miss waking up in the middle of the night to find my little guy snuggled up at my side. I'll post some pictures of the new place after I get all settled in and unpacked.

I'd be a savage if I didn't miss this fur ball. Look at those toes? How could anyone not miss those furry little feet?

You Are the Best Thing

Let me introduce you to Ray LaMontagne. I can't get enough of this song as of late. Here's a clip from his appearance on Conan, not the best quality recording, but you get the idea.


And another clip from a show in Amsterdam.


He's gritty, he's bearded, and he's got me wrapped around his little microphone. Lovin' those southern boys. Check out Ray's version of Gnarls Barkley's "Crazy".

You know who also does a great version of "Crazy"? Paolo Nutini. Also an awesome gritty voice. And quite a lovely face as well.



Soon to blog: my trip to Vancouver, BC to see Kings of Leon, some more hottie southern gents.

Rogers and Loggins

My iTunes downloading situation has reached ridiculous, but awesome, levels. This week I sprung for some interesting tracks. I went on a Kenny binge, if you will. As in Kenny Rogers and Kenny Loggins. Check out the following image I found on the internet. A compare and contrast image of Kenny Rogers pre-and-post face lift. He looks drastically different, no? I have to say, I prefer pre-surg KR, but what are you gonna do?
What Kenny Rogers songs did I download? "Islands in the Stream"...duet with Dolly Parton, and "Ruby, Don't Take Your Love To Town".

Kenny Loggins. When I think of Kenny Loggins, I think of three movies.....Footloose, Top Gun, and Caddyshack. A ganna nanna cut loose! I downloaded "I'm Alright (Theme from Caddyshack)", "This Is It", and "Whenever I Call You Friend"...duet with Stevie Nicks. I'm thinking I should also download "Danger Zone" just to be thorough.

Other downloads include:

"Never Forget You" by Noisettes (love, love, love this song)

"Fools" by The Dodos (song from the Miller Chill commercial, catchy)

"My Life" and "It's Still Rock and Roll To Me" by Billy Joel

"My Sweet Lord" and "Got My Mind Set On You" by George Harrison. George is my favorite Beatle, if you were wondering.

"You Make My Dreams" and "Out of Touch" by Daryl Hall & John Oates

I still have $8.76 left of my iTunes gift card from Kyle & Cynthia.....what should I download next?
