Jingle Bells

She's cute...'nuff said... :)

Message in a Bottle

Have you heard this song by The Police? The Police are one of my ALL-TIME favorite bands! I have probably listened to that song a bazillion times...

Last night, over at Tara's, we played Message in a Bottle..I didn't realize what we were playing, and picked "EXPERT" on drums.

I have to say, that I was impressed I didn't die at all...the problem I find with Rock Band and drums is that I can play a lot of those songs for reals...you know on a real drumset. But when I get in Rock Band and try to play, they just mess it all up...plus I don't have cymbals (What I wouldn't give for cymbals!).

I might be bragging a little bit...but it was fun! I might be a little more adventurous when it comes to drum parts on Rock Band now. I had a lot of fun with Tara, John, Charlie, Erin & Brea (sp?)...They are a RIOT!

Paramore and Torrie

So tonight, Laurie and I went to my parents house for some pre-thanksgiving Mexican food, and I think the idea was to help bake. Whatever... :) I decided to bring my guitar and amp with me. I've been trying to learn the 2 paramore songs from the Twilight soundtrack.

let me start a little further back...

A couple weekends ago, Laurie and I got to spend the day with our niece, Torrie. She'll be 4 in March. She's hysterical! On the way to Burlington to go shopping, we were listening to some Paramore. And, one of the songs from the Twilight soundtrack came on, and she was singing it in the back seat! It was awesome!

So, that's why I decided to try and learn the songs. So, tonight, I took my guitar and little amp to my parents house. Torrie asked all sorts of questions about why I had brought this stuff over. And, I told her I was gonna play her a song.

So, after dinner, I broke out my guitar, Drop D tuned it, and started to play "Decode" by Paramore. (My amp has audio outlets so that I can plug my ipod into it, and play along with a song...it's sweet!) She was singing to it, and it's a relatively easy song to play, so I was singing along. The looks she gave me as we played and sang together were absolutely priceless...hopefully tomorrow I can get a video of it...it was awesome!

Twilight Review

No, I'm not REALLY gonna do a review...just to say, I'm glad I saw it. Not the most AMAZING movie I ever saw...but still really liked it. There were some intense scenes...and I hope the next movie has a different director. But all in all...I had a great day with my Mom, Sister, and Sister in-law...glad we went to the 10am showing, the theatre wasn't nearly as full as another showing would have been. :) Yay Twilight!

I got Laurie the coolest thing...

So, I was cruisin' Ebay, which I do sometimes, and found the coolest "Twilight" shirts. And, Laurie took a real fancy to one. But, she wasn't sure about the "I run with Vampires" part on the shirt. So, I e-mailed the lady who makes the shirts, and she was so cool. Didn't even charge me for leaving it off the shirt. So, here's a pic of the shirt.

With Twilight looming around the corner; I brag a little...

In case you can't see it...that's 4 tickets for TWILIGHT on November 21st (opening day) @ 10am.

No you can't have my confirmation number...don't you wish. ;)

To all you who have been waiting for a new blog...here you go. :D hahahaha

On a side note...if anyone wants to go down to Lynnwood the same day, same time...buy your ticks and let me know. YAY!
