'you say i misread you, i say you led me on...'

driving through barabooish home from the cities. jonathan delehanty in the passenger seat; jen & jason in the backseat. jonathan took us on a countryesque tour of my cd collection, with a little preview of some original tunes in there. hadn’t had company on the mpls to madison ride since andy hopped in das auto june of last year for the same ride. it was nice to have someone other than the beatles or dylan or phone people to keep me company.

'starting a war by avoiding a fight...'

rocking the garden! watching colin meloy watch calexico from the side of the stage. it's like 'where's waldo' for hipsters. kara miller, ash, and i scored front row spots for the festival. spent the saturday watching solid gold, yeasayer, calexico, and the decemberists rock the shit out of minneapolis. and i only had one beer spilled on me, and only got in one verbal brawl with an awful drunk gal. all around, a success.

having a drink with my pa on the porch. ma is to the right. chocolate martini & wine kind of night as the scallops and asparagus cook. though, when is it not at a chocolate martini & wine kind of night at the hanson household? i certainly miss this porch and this moment when i return to madison. nothing beats the porch deck backyard my parents have built, and the times we have there.

driving home madison to minneapolis after a day of work. heading the wrong direction on the wrong road. the car defaulted to lax after all the epic weekends with the ladies spring semester. whoops. nice day for driving; i wasn’t too disappointed. obviously dangerously and illegally enjoying my drive. i spy no less than three things wrong with what’s going on in this picture. luckily the cop i passed a few moments in the future saw no more than zero things worth pulling me over for.

driving home from old chub happy hour from heaven. discovered montmartre served old chub scotch ale (!!!!) at the daredevil show last week. old chub was a group favorite at la crosse’s beer & cheese fest a few months back. i couldn’t believe my eyes when i saw montmartre served the classy canned beer! i thought my eyes, and the bartender, were deceiving me. kourt and i immediately set up a grand happy hour celebration of this find. hopefully to be repeated. repeatedly.

'i didn't know, i didn't know the weight of my tongue...'

hanging out at the colorectal cancer prevention initiative (CCPI – we loooove acronyms) steering committee meeting. the group gets served a dinner of some sort, then have lively discussion for 90-120 minutes about colorectal cancer in the uw system. hearing about the electronic health maintenance record for a bit and what it can do to help the project along. i high-tailed it out of the meeting asap following adjournment to pick up ryan perket, fresh off the highway from colorado, and head to the high noon for an early blind pilot show.

moisturizing post-shower. planning to bike to work tomorrow, and not really wanting to shower in the morning. takes time, and i have to deal with the wet hair + helmet... being proactive. the blue soap container next to the magazines has been sitting there for a while now. not really sure if it belongs to someone in the house? or someone who crashed on the couch? oh, the mysteries!
