but at least the war is over

So Teitur. Good concert. He played a really nice variety of old and new, and his and Helgi's accents and English were absolutely adorable. Jeneane's friend was there, and her comment was that they seemed "green behind the ears," and I think it's true. They didn't seem really rehearsed at all, but I think that made it even more lovely. As it was, there were only about a hundred people there, and we got to sit on this great couch, so I think the spontaneous quality of the show just added to it. I think what most surprised me, though, was that Teitur's voice sounded less soft than it does in "Poetry & Aeroplanes" and more like Colin Meloy. I wasn't expecting that. All in all I had a really good time, and Teitur, Helgi, and the rest of the band are really talented and can each play a ton of instruments.

Tomorrow is the beginning of my last week of work. Thursday morning I leave for Pittsburgh. Because I'm going to miss next weekend and a family celebration with my mother's family, we went to the Landscape Arboretum today so I could see my grandmother before I'm gone for the summer. It was a beautiful day and all the tulips were out, so it was nice.

I finally watched the Office finale, and I don't know what I think yet. I need to watch it again to process it. I also still haven't watched Doctor Who for a few weeks now, and I missed Friday's BSG because of the concert.

I'm trying to do themed mixes, and it's hard. I could always make it easier, but that's cheating. Oh well. It will get done (or not) when it gets done.

"My favorite place was Mexico. Because the money is cheap. Five dollars it ten dollars and one hundrend dollars is one thousand. And thats the reason i like Mexico."
