We put our glass to the sky and lift up
And live tonight ‘cause you can’t take it with ya
So raise a pint for the people that aren’t with us
And live tonight ‘cause you can’t take it with ya

Sláinte, David Donovan.

Best SNL opener in ages. Understated, shockingly sweet & sincere before laying the cynical smackdown.

I will have poetry in my life. And adventure. And love. Love above all. No…not the artful postures of love, not playful and poetical games of love for the amusement of an evening, but love that…overthrows life. Unbiddable, ungovernable - like a riot in the heart, and nothing to be done, come ruin or rapture. Love - like there has never been in a play.

There’s a Monkey in the fruit bowl. Roommie and I rescued two kittens found on an abandoned boat a few weeks ago. Now I’m a officially a crazy cat lady & we’ve raised the grand total of animals in our house to a whopping four. Expect invitations to our civil ceremony to follow.

I'm kind of a big deal...

And don’t worry, I’m still me, guys.

Vintage post, courtesy of 2009:

“left a good job in the city…”

this was:
-10 seconds before we realized we were the only assholes on the river still wearing our life vests.
-30 min before we realized we needed to swap places (apparently, I’m stronger in the rear).
-and about 4 hours before we realized we were going to flip over in front of hordes of people.

I think I saw Jesus last week. Okay, that might be a slight exaggeration, but I did see the most radical new band I’ve seen play live since Mumford & Sons, and let’s just say, they blew my Sputnik sized cranium wide open.

If there were a musical equivalent to the combination of a gentle, yet firm hug from your BFF, a hot and heavy (over the clothes, cause you’ve decided to have standards in 2012) make out session with Jordan Catalano in the back of his Mustang, AND experiencing the Aha! moment when you finally understand that everything really WILL be alright…well, then said magical incarnation, in my humble opinion, would be: The Lumineers.

Forget about the fact that I first discovered their infectious single, Ho Hey, while watching an episode of one of my, ahem, many secret TV shames (the CW’s Hart of Dixie). And don’t even bother asking about my other “indiscretions.” After all, it’s taboo to discuss one’s “number,” so let’s not get caught up with details and just get on with our lives. Mmmkay?

Let’s talk folk rock! My Peruvian homeboy, Mitch, and I hit up the Hotel Cafe in Hollywood, which is a totally underrated venue. It’s got a great, unpretentious vibe and even sold out it wasn’t uncomfortably crowded. The Lumineers are a Denver trio of proper musicians (we were treated to a melodic menagerie of guitars, cello, mandolin, piano, and even a multi-colored xylophone, just to name a few), and it’s beyond refreshing to witness a REAL performance in a world overrun by pre-recorded vocals and Auto-Tune.

The kicker was their one song encore, which they performed acoustically, after hopping off stage and into the motherflippin’ crowd. Mitch and I bum rushed the center of the room like a pair of proper tune nerds, and were treated to an electric explosion of sound three feet away from us.

Total geek out: achieved.
