I want a new blog.

Today had a little bit of epic fail and a little bit of epic win in it.

First, the epic fail:



Looks awesome, right? I thought so, too! So I went to the Obama headquarters nearest me to claim my free tickets, and received the devastating news that the tickets -- all 20,000+ of them -- were claimed in under 90 minutes yesterday afternoon when they were first made available.

Fuck.

Then, to pour salt into the wound, I asked if I could get an Obama/Biden sign for my front yard, and they didn't even have any! Slightly frustrating to say the least.

However, moving into the "epic win" category, I woke up this morning to find that Brian Warren fron Weatherbox has posted up another live acoustic video of a new song, this one titled "They're Ready For Us To Come Home And Chill On The Couch." It is, as expected, totally awesome. Check it out:



The Cosmic Drama is easily my most anticipated album of 2009. Soooooo excited to hear what this dude comes up with.

But if that weren't enough win for one day, I also paid a visit to my local supermarket and was greeted with a gigantic display stocked with apple cider. I love apple cider, to say the least, so this almost made up for my missing out on free Jay-Z tickets. (Almost.) Had they also been selling applesauce donuts (also a huge seasonal favorite of mine), I might've forgotten what epic hangs there could've been between me and Hova.

PS - Today's blog title is a shoutout to my friend Josh who always tells me how much he loves my blog titles. Josh is also the world's biggest Huey Lewis And The News fan, so that headline's for him. (He's also the world's biggest Crime In Stereo fan, but that's neither here nor there.)

Even I, a McCain supporter, would have taken free Jay-Z tix. It's EFFING JAY-Z!!!

ps. my word verification was too good to pass up so I have to let the world know that "agathwa" is a good new word that either you or Tim should make into a real word.
