Time Flies When You're Having Fun - NOT

Monday, March 8, 2010  at 10:21 PM

I think the phrase "time flies when you're having fun" should end with a laugh and a "NOT." When's the last time you were having a lot of fun and you looked at your watch and was like "wow time sure has flown, we must have been having boat-loads of fun." If you've answerednever to that question, you are an honest person.

So why did I start my first post in almost two weeks with that random little rant? Because it actually feels like I blogged last about two weeks ago, and I've actually been having fun these past two weeks. Granted I had exams which bogged me down a little bit, but on the whole my last two weeks have been pretty entertaining. But now I'm home for Spring Break. And I'm not having a whole lot of fun. And time is dragging... probably because I worked more in the past two days at the Gap in Syracuse than I have in the past month at the Gap in State College. But now I have the next two days off, and for the best reason in the world - and it's just two words: Ingrid. Michaelson.

That's right: Ingrid Michaelson. Tomorrow I'm going to hit the highway and travel to Lancaster, PA to go to my second Ingrid Michaelson concert with my friend Jess. And it's going to beamazing beyond words. Of course I'll take pictures and videos and post them on here once again. But don't expect anything for a few days. You should realize by now that I'm pretty inconsistent with posts, especially when I'm busy with work. Which I am - I have 38 hours this week, and I haven't worked that much in a few months.

What am I not excited for this week? The fact that I'm driving down to PA tomorrow, then back to NY Wednesday, and then back to PA on Sunday. Thank god I have CDs that I can listen to in the car, because I don't think I could make it the 10+ hours I'm going to be driving in total without my music.

And yes, that was the most random segue ever to what I want to post: my newest musical obsession is Allison Weiss. Obviously Ingrid is still #1, but I think Allison Weiss is amazing. If you've never heard of her, here's the music video for one of my favorite songs: "I'm Ready"


Her stuff is amazing, and she's hilarious. I have a live CD she recorded at Sidewalk NYC that she had available around Thanksgiving last year, and it's awesome. So if you haven't heard her stuff, go to YouTube right now and look her up. And then buy her music. Or download it illegally, whatever, I don't care. Just do whatever you choose to do so you can actually possess her songs. (Disclaimer: I actually bought a few of albums on iTunes, so don't try to get me in trouble!)
