Ok, so I haven’t been doing every week, but this is better than I previously was doing. And pics should be up already also. So anyway.
Bought a couple albums/songs off of iTunes with some Christmas gift cards I got as well as a free 10 songs I received for filling out a survey.
Death Cab for Cutie – Plans
Jeff Buckley – Grace
Israel Kamakawiwo’ole – Over the Rainbow / Wonderful World (song only)
Howard Jones – No One is to Blame (song only; cool 80’s pop version)
Also Heidi bought me Coldplay – X&Y for my birthday and I finally got around to ripping my Rusted Root 20th Century Masters disc along with The Killers – Hot Fuss. Whew.
Beyond that I just celebrate my 31st birthday. What did I do to celebrate, one might ask? I became financially responsible. I finally took to the action to eliminate my annual tax return, invest the money throughout the year instead (between retirement accounts and soon short- and mid-term investments), and overall use my money much more efficiently than I have for the past 13 years. I have TurboTax Online to thank for this. After it finally laid out for me what a five year strategy could look like with my current level of income and spending, I decided I would be foolish not to pursue things. Yay me.
A new episode of The Office was on last night. The Dwight bobblehead was awesome. I am still laughing about it today.
TONIGHT!!! The last four episodes of Arrested Development are on. Any fan of comedy owes it to themselves to watch these. I guarantee they will be the best 4 episodes of television aired this month.
Belle had her second dance class. She is als conveniently in the recital this year. More info on that as it comes up, but the costumes are cute.
That’s all for now. Will try to get more in soon.
