The National

Well, I have squandered two days off, and now I'm faced with going back to work tomorrow. Oh well. Today I helped Korn and Kelly move into their new apartment, and then spent the rest of the afternoon playing around with the sampler and sequencer built into my keyboard.

I've been listening for 2 weeks or so to a band called The National. Their new CD, Boxer, is pretty damned good. Not life-changing or anything, but good. Good enough that it's been the only thing I've listened to for the last 2 weeks and I haven't gotten tired of it. I'm looking into getting their earlier CD, Alligator. Maybe I'll go sell some CD's at Record and Tape Traders tomorrow before work and pick it up.

Jeannie and I were going to walk up to Hopkins' campus tonight for an outdoor presentation of Young Frankenstein, but it's looking like rain so we might have to adjust our plans.
