And now, just a little fun to get you through those Wednesday blues!

My adventures in the Pittsburgh International Airport during the worst snow storm of the century. After arriving late for a flight at 7:40 PM to LGA I decided to stick around my gate until my flight at 5:40 and had a BLAST!

I never meant to stay away for so long… We got in from Jersey late Monday night (pictures!), had piles of work to do on Tuesday, then later that night I got a touch of the food poisoning. Since then I’ve been trying to work and sleep as much as possible. During any of my conscious moments I’ve been listening, almost nonstop, to Mew’s “No More Stories…” and F**k Button’s “Tarot Sport.” I highly, highly recommend both (also Mew’s “And the Glass Handed Kites“).

Hopefully things will return to normal come Monday. Have a great weekend!

I won’t be able to check this out, since it’s Rei-Rei’s birthday celebration tonight, but if you’re in the NYC area I highly recommend you head out to The Highline Ballroom in Williamsburg tonight. Show starts at 8 (but you’re going to want to get there much earlier, as it is first come, first serve). Enjoy!

P.S. Anyone who creates an homage to Bat Dance, is an ace in my book!
