Only two more days...

Its taken almost 6 weeks, but I'm down to two days of our trip left to post. Perhaps it will get done this week, now that I'm in Atlanta for a few days. When I'm done I will post a wrap-up of the trip and all of the links, in order. Soon...

Corn Party?

On Friday, Steph and I were out at our local supermarket picking up groceries for Alli & Todd's baby shower the following night. When I approached the cashier, the following exchange occurred:

Me: "I have 24 ears of corn here."
Cashier (in a very Southern accent): "What do you need 24 ears of corn for?"
Me: "I'm having a party."
Cashier: "What kind of party? A corn party?!"

I didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

NIN at the Tabernacle

Damon and I went to see NIN last night at the Tabernacle. The show got me thinking about how my musical tastes reflect what's going on in my life.

NIN was OK, it reminded me a lot of what I was like when I was listening to NIN regularly in the mid-90's — angst ridden and trying to figure out where I fit in the world. From NIN my tastes evolved toward the Grateful Dead and Phish, I started listening to a lot of Americana and Bluegrass when Steph and I started dating. My musical tastes, like my personality, has evolved over the years into something much more mellow and happier. Trust me, this is a good thing.

Just a random thought on a slightly hung-over post concert morning.

Uninspired...

I'm feeling very uninspired today. I am working on a few projects for work, including a presentation on Regular Expressions at ACFUG on June 1, 2005.

I've also been lagging on posting the remaining days of our travelogue. I had no idea each post would consume 1 - 2 hours of my at night . I'm halfway through writing and editing pictures from one of the most interesting days of our trip, perhaps it will be posted later tonight.
