So, as promised, here are the books that kept Chris and I busy during last night’s concert at the Ravinia Festival:

So, today I stopped by my mom’s house to drop off the license plate sticker for the RAV4. Then, we went to the Cheesecake Factory for lunch. I had the fried shrimp scatter and a slice of the chocolate peanut butter cookie dough cheesecake. My leftover shrimp and fries went home with my mom so that Mel could have them. She would have come, but I guess the Warped Tour was in town today. After dropping off my mom at home, Chris and I went to Dominick’s and got some last minute items for tonight’s trip to Ravinia Festival to see the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and celibrate our one year anniversary of the engagement.

Kent Salas built this Pyramac. It’s got a transparent pyramid case, including a transparent hard drive window and phosphorescent painted components for black light fun. Thanks to one of my favorite geek blogs, /., for the link.

I got this forwarded to me from my cousin in California, and I don’t have anything better to do. So, here’s a list of things to do in an elevator.

So, I just spent an hour and a half cleaning my car: vaccuuming, cleaning the windows, wiping the dash and all plastic cladding inside, and protecting the dash. It was just past 7pm when I came back in and I turned on the TV trying to remember what the hell it was I wanted to watch tonight on FOX. I brought up the Guide on the digital cable box, and quickly found FOX’s Test the Nation. I’m taking the test now on paper following the questions on the screen. I’ll try to post my results later, as I was too late to have them included with the rest of the online test-takers.

Well, I’m just running out of stuff about which to write now. I mean, I’m sure there are things about which I can write, but I can’t remember them. Anyways, I discovered MusicPundit today. It’s a blog by Aimee Deep, cover girl for Madster, formerly Aimster. I found her rather strong viewpoints on 1st Amendment rights, copyright law, and intellectualy property law quite interesting. And her site is quite well done, too. So, check out her site; read an interview of her by Mikael Pawlo, editor of Greplaw; and have a nice day. Thanks goes to /. for the posting where I found all this information.
