Finally had a moment to finish this one.
Really enjoyed the backstory to some of the songs of my youth. Learned a lot I didn’t know, some I did. Fast read. Would recommend for any fan of the band.
Most played last week.
That new Spiritbox album is excellent. Lots to enjoy on the new Lady Gaga as well.
Yes, we are giant nerds.
But this is still one of my favorite additions to the basement. A little representation of one of my favorite movies.
Lightsaber made by The Saber Factory and it came out amazing. Great detail. Love the customizations.
This week’s wall picks.
I was happy to add that Butch Walker album to the collection this week.
Another month has come to an end.
February brought the cold. We saw snow. We saw “feels like” temperatures that were just cruel for the Pacific Northwest. But the last few days have seen the return of the sun.
Cats, records, beer. Not a bad month.
February 2025
I’ve wanted to pick up one of these signed handwritten lyric sheets from Ryan of Yellowcard for a while. When the latest shop opened up, I finally went for it. I picked a song that’s meant a whole lot to me over the years, “Back Home.” It’s a song that started as an anthem for a young me off in college and thinking about what I’d left behind. It’s now a song that makes me think about all I have right now, and how far I’ve come from being that silly kid running off to California.
I’m super happy with how it turned out and can’t wait to frame it for the office wall.
Found a spot for the NFG drum head. The new office is coming together. I probably should do an updated full blog post once I finish a few more things.
I have some errands to run this morning (haircut!) and then we have Valentine’s Day dinner reservations this evening. So, I’m not sure if I’ll be able to get to writing a newsletter today or if it will have to wait.
Big Thursday kick this week.
