Today is Boomtime, day 52 in the season of Chaos, 3269.

Bigger than expected federal tax refund just got deposited, and I just mailed my very last car payment. So, on their way to me:

  • from cdstreet.com, Scissorkiss's "Where's My Silver Love?"
  • from CD Baby, Vienna Teng's "Waking Hour" (Thanks, Ecto; EWS strikes again.) and both volumes of the Songs Inspired by Literature Project. CD Baby still has the best shipping confirmation email ever:

    Your CDs have been gently taken from our CD Baby shelves with sterilized contamination-free gloves and placed onto a satin pillow.

    A team of 50 employees inspected your CDs and polished them to make sure they were in the best possible condition before mailing.

    Our packing specialist from Japan lit a candle and a hush fell over the crowd as he put your CDs into the finest gold-lined box that money can buy.

    We all had a wonderful celebration afterwards and the whole party marched down the street to the post office where the entire town of Portland waved 'Bon Voyage!' to your package, on its way to you, in
    our private CD Baby jet on this day, Friday, February 21st.

    I hope you had a wonderful time shopping at CD Baby. We sure did. Your picture is on our wall as "Customer of the Year". We're all exhausted but can't wait for you to come back to CDBABY.COM!!


  • a reversible down jacket from Land's End, on crazy sale (which means the weather will warm up real quick-like)
  • Not on their way yet, but I'm going to preorder the Red Dwarf DVDs that come out on the 25th and Jonah: a VeggieTales Movie that comes out March 4.


There's got to be a better way to deal with stress than shopping, I'm sure, but I'll look for it later. (No, not a request for suggestions. ;) )

I am so wanting that Vienna Teng CD. I have dropped about seven million hints for birthday-gifts in the husbandy direction.

Yay, Scissorkiss! Let me know what the CD's like, please! I've attempted to blag one for

I've seen Scissorkiss twice and neither was by choice (they open for the Cruxshadows and they also played at Arisia).
Both times I was very not impressed with the live show. Sounded really bad (probably due to bad work at the sound board).
Though I did get to hand out with the lead singer at Arisia (damn she is cute)
I want to hear some of their studio work, I'm sure it is 100x better.


and ya know what if you had asked I probably could have gotton you the CD(s)

"Jonah: a VeggieTales Movie" should be banned. I'll sue! Defamation of character I say!

I plead the fifth. While you're at it, give me a fifth.

If you preorder now, will you get them on the 26th? (in time to show them to me when I'm there... hopeful look)

For me, arranging a week ago to have money automatically deducted from my bank account (on payday) into retirement savings made me feel a lot less stressed. But that probably wouldn't destress many people.

*hugs* and *kisses*
