Seven things -

I was tagged by Kristi the Frontier Psychiatrist to complete this meme. I'm short on words today, so this will have to suffice.

7 things I plan to do before I die:

1. Drink beer in Belgium.
2. Run another marathon (or more).
3. Move the hell out of Chicago.
4. Be the "World's Greatest Dad".
5. Graduate.
6. Feel comfortable in my own skin.
7. See the Cubs win a World Series.

7 things I can do:

1. Play guitar.
2. Cook up a mean pulled-pork sandwich.
3. Ace tests = kill the curve.
4. Ski/snowboard almost any terrain in front of me.
5. Always have an opinion that's different than yours.
6. Make lists filled with useless information.
7. Do whatever I put my mind to.

7 things I cannot do:

1. Tell a joke without butchering it.
2. Drink rum without vomiting.
3. Color within the lines.
4. Converse with animals Dr. Doolittle style.
5. Be patient.
6. Ride a unicycle without falling.
7. Hit the high notes (singing that is).

7 things that attract me to another person:

1. That person is my wife.
2. A good sense of humor (cliche, I know).
3. Sincerity.
4. Beautiful eyes.
5. Shyness.
6. Good taste in music.
7. Kindness and compassion.

7 things I say most often:

1. Isn't Hailey cute?
2. Did she poop?
3. Sure. I'll change her diaper.
4. What the fuck?
5. School sucks.
6. Let me play you a song from a band you've never heard of.
7. I need to exercise more.

7 people I want to do this:

1. Amy
2. Jacob
3. Sarah
4. Moka
5. JT
6. Andy
7. Kurteaux

Music today from the kings of noise in Wolf Eyes, whose latest album is out now on Sub Pop, and Chicago's own Milemarker. They have been making apocalyptic post-punk sin the mid 90's and their fantastic new release Ominosity is out on Eyeball Records.

Thanks for the feedback on our blog, it's appreciated :) Yours is great. Also, we think we might have seen Allister perform (in support of Rx Bandits perhaps?) a while back -- both of us have seen our fair share of Drive-thru Records shows. . .

I got your tag, brah. I'll get to that ASAP.

Later.

Oh, are you free this Saturday night? We were thinking of bringing the family over to visit Hailey.

if you want to move, you and your wife and can not be trusted & butterfly should move to ft. worth, tx, where we live. my husband & i need more friends that have babies and like good music. where do these people hide???

Blogger rollerskater  at 1:26 PM 

p.s. how do you put MP3s on your blog?!?!?!

Blogger Moka  at 1:31 PM 

You use the link option on the post menu, rollerskater.

Just finished my top albums list of the year eric, take a look and tell me if you love it/hate it.

Why would you move from Chicago? And where to?

Blogger Eric  at 4:40 PM 

Kelly/Jose - We have played with RXB a ton of times, so you may have seen me.

Jacob - Brah, Saturday is a no go. Company holiday Party. As Sarah would say, time to get "Schwilly."

Rollersk8r - People with babies and good taste in music is a hard combo to find it seems. Isn't it hot in Texas though?

Moka - Awesome list. I am feeling the pressure now. Although Chicago is the greatest city in the world, I want some scenery and outdoor goodness. Hiking, snowboarding, etc. Mountains. Yes. Peace and quiet.

Blogger rollerskater  at 5:00 PM 

yes, apparently it is an EXTREMELY hard combo to find. there is a group called 'punky moms', but i am worried i won't fit in with the punky moms either. we're more of the converse/jeans/t-shirt/black glasses variety. :(
hot in texas? no...(crossing my fingers behind my back).

rollerskater: eric & i want to move, someday.

everyone, any location suggestions for music loving, new parents??

iiiiilf - my word verification...holy "i's"

Blogger PAgirly  at 7:23 PM

MY LORD DOES HAILEY SMELL. i'll do this after i change her...

Blogger gone  at 11:44 AM

Blogger sweetviolet  at 5:21 PM
