So it's been a while since my last post. I'm terribly sorry. I know you check this every time you get online just waiting in sweet anticipation for the day I will add another ridiculous post of nothingness to my ever so intriguing blog. Well wait no more my dear, the day is here. (uh gross that totally rhymed)

Since my last post mostly this has happened:

• work
• Europe (kallory.blogspot.com - good times)
• Utah
• Janie, Quinston, Jack, and others visiting for
• Bumbershoot 09 in Seattle center : Modest Mouse, Franz Ferdinand and others
• Brand New in Puyallup
• hiking with Mirinda in Issaquah

Now to the main topic of my post. I know what you are wondering and don't worry I'm about to supply the answer. It's easy to see from knowing me or even just reading my blogs that mostly all I care to discuss is music, therefore you clearly are wondering what I am currently listening to. (shut up, that's totally all you're wondering) I feel like the last few months have been just filled with so many amazing new albums that I really can't focus in on one like I usually do. Seriously, by the end of September Mariah Carey, Third Eye Blind, Muse, Brand New, Colbie Caillat, Arctic Monkeys, Placebo, Incubus, Pheonix and Taking Back Sunday have all released new albums this summer. Plus the remastered version of every Beatles album. Just add Nirvana, Interpol, Kings of Leon and The Cure and that's basically a list of my favorite bands. OK my favorite bands list is pretty long and even all those bands doesn't really begin to cover it, but whatever it doesn't matter. Mariah and Brand New haven't been released yet and I cannot wait. Every time Mariah has a new CD coming out the anticipation and excitement that I feel is even more so than if I was counting down to my own wedding day. No offense future husband. You're no Mariah. Hey, in my defense, you knew what you were getting into. Anyway, I still haven't fully answered the question of what I am currently listening to. So, it is as follows:

• Third Eye Blind Ursa Major and Third Eye Blind
• Lovedrug Everything Starts Where It Ends
• Colbie Caillat Breakthrough
• Muse The Resistance
• Arctic Monkeys Humbug and Favourite Worst Nightmare
• Phoenix Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix

Basketball starts in 38 days. Add that excitement to the week and a half I have left til the new Mariah record and I'm pretty sure I should be passed out.
