i'll fight

i'm momentarily suspending my title tribute to william joel in honor of the release of "wilco the album" tomorrow. i'm actually listening to "you never know" right now. tuesday at 9a.m. the best buy on richmond opens and i'm going to be here, cash in hand. i think it will make the perfect soundtrack to my fourth of july extravaganza, which consists of diet soda, my wife and a movie and lots of boxes. and the cat. by the way, pitchfork gave it a 7.3. i'm shocked.

this weekend was a pretty good one. we drank wine and watched austrailia, which was about three hours of ridiculousness and predictableness, but still pretty good. what is hugh jackman eating? that dude is ripped. i think he could beat the crap out of carrot top, which is saying alot because carrot top has turned into a muscular monster.

saturday we got to packing a lot. but it got so hot, we couldn't really concentrate anymore and we were getting really agitated, so we went to the movies. we saw "away we go," which if you're married, that's a good movie to watch. if you're not married, it's a good movie to watch because the relationship between the two characters is something you hardly see in movies. they actually love each other. and care about each other. it was refreshing to see that for a change. plus it's pretty funny. we saw it at the river oaks theater. i love that place. it's old-style movie watching.

sunday we got back to packing and ran some errands. made it to the gym. that's about it.
