the end (of break) is nigh

hello loyal reader(s)...i think this may be a recycled joke, but i'll let it stay because it's still funny the second time.

First things first, Contra, the new Vampire Weekend record came in the mail today. I pre-ordered it on vinyl. To my delight, when I opened the package that the mailman brought me, the first thing that pops out is a folded piece of paper. This paper turned out to be a poster. Not just any poster. A poster signed by the guys from Vampire Weekend. I think that's pretty great that they include freebies when you buy vinyls. That will definitely get me to keep buying records, especially when they come with a digital copy. As I type to you, though, side A of Contra has just finished, therein lying the problem with vinyl for this generation. I now have to get up and flip the record to side B, or sit here in silence.

Tonight I watched Watchmen. It was too long. It looked good, but there was something about it that kept me from loving it. It was definitely decent, but not great, like the parts of the graphic novel that I have actually read.

I can't believe break is almost over. It really flew by.

Go JETS!

peace, love, & autographs,
m.w.w.
