Game of Thrones, Texas, and James Vincent McMorrow
05-1-2011 
So after quite a bit of procrastination, quite a lot of life, and some moving around a bit, I have come back to attempting to keep my site up and running. Instead of amazing stores about meeting new people, seeing new places, or doing something worth mention, I make my comeback special about a friggan t.v. show. I am high brow, no?
Anyway, I can only hope that this past mother's day you were all doing the sensible thing and forcing your mom to watch HBO's Game of Thrones. I have never been one to fancy kings, castles, and sword fights, but hell if I don't find this show entertaining. So much so that I'm actually reading the book(s). I think that's some sort of narrative stereo, where you take in the same content in two different ways at the same time. I dunnno, just watch the show.
I should note that I am in Texas now. It was all a rather big surprise to me, too. I have to say that thus far my impressions have been pretty good. I have managed to have some of the best coffee I've ever had here, find the most comfortable apartment walking distance to work and a nightlife, and am in no need to worry about never having a burrito handy. They are everywhere here. Texas is 'merican for "all we eat is mexican food and damn if we ain't gonna like it!" Actually, the food is pretty good. I can't speak on Texas too much, really. The girls are pretty, the wind blows crazy hard, it get's damn hot (so I hear), and the people have thus far been pretty nice. Well done, TX.
I will do my best to drop music recomendations here from time to time as well. Here's my latest audible affliction, James Vincent McMorrow. I've been listening to him quite a bit as of late and have to say his album has been my favorite thus far for 2011. Good ear food. Here's a listen:
