creepy crawly

Today is crawling by. I've been at work since a lovely 7:20 this morning, and my system is still down. Not that I really like to work, but I really don't like being at work and not being able to do anything. I've looked over the few things I can do without my system, played some tetris, read the TBT (god, that's a terribly edited paper), had breakfast and went downstairs for a break (from the monotony, as it was). I've now started on the crossword, which should keep me occupied for another 20 minutes. Blah.

I dug out a couple of wonderful old CDs of mine -- Eve 6 and For Squirrels. Marvelous. Nothing like mid-90s alt-rock. Back when it really was the alternative.

Now will someone give me some work to do, for the sake of the gods and my sanity?

I really hate that too. I have to do this support at work where the vendor logs into my machine to diagnose a problem on the server. I can't do anything while they're on my machine, sometimes for hours. I started reading because I was so bored.

Also, congrats on the tiny bean! We are thinking about one more...holy.

I have to comment on this, even if you don't see it... I just found for squirrels last year. Good stuff!

However, I wanted to let see if you saw the trend in "alternative" that I see these days. Truly alternative these days is blending a good deal of soul/blues in. See: cold war kids; amy winehouse; even fall out boy. do you agree?
