I had the absolute joy of a last minute show in Anaheim on Saturday. There’s a band called The Pink Spiders and I picked put their album from a Best Buy weekly flyer and immediately fell in love. And then, the band never came to San Diego and then I read that they broke up. You can imagine I was super thrilled to see they were back and out on tour. It was super fun because they played all the songs I knew and lived and some that I didn’t know. It was a good night.

San Diego is drying out from the enormous (for us) amount of rain we had last week. I finished re-listening to the Harry Potter series for the umpteenth time (not sorry) and am back on the Casefile train. I’m also recovering from shaving my horse (you read that right) and it wouldn’t be such an ordeal if I wasn’t so anal retentive. I do get a break this week to see Sir Elton John up in LA on Wednesday! Otherwise, I’m looking towards next week and The Silent Comedy show.
