how is it...

that i could be so exhausted from walking around the mall yesterday? granted, K and i spent 7 hours there, with only about a 10-minute starbucks break... i'd love to know how many miles we walked, since we did the whole mall and then some. we were both wiped out by the time the place closed, i came home and checked e-mail and then crashed with "miami ink" on the tv. what DIDN'T get a workout, i'm proud to say, is my wallet... i just got a sweater and suit jacket for work (much needed), and a fun dressy sweater to wear out in the evening (i figure i should get something that makes me look non-schlumpy if i'm going to do this blind date thing).

i got some great news when i checked my e-mail this morning: mark erelli is coming to PA to play a gig in a couple of weeks! w00t! D got me into him when we were dating, and i know i've written at least one post about seeing him live (too lazy to find it tho)... and i can't believe he's coming down to PA from maine! yay! i seriously thought that once i moved here, i'd never see him play live again. he is just so wonderful to see in person, and his music is fantastic. (his song "snowed in", about rushing home in crappy weather so he can get snowed in with his wife, is just too romantic. *swoon*) so needless to say, the night of the 10th is blocked off on my calendar. it's going to be me, and mark, and a big freakin' cup of chai(and anyone who wants to join me)!

lastly, ( my big karaoke night at the house of blues in anaheim... )
