Saturday night is "HOT DATE NIGHT"

every once in awhile. there comes a special day in the week. this special day is called "HOT DATE NIGHT". Let me explain for all of you, who don't know the certain lingo. "HOT" in Latin means, tubular to the max. "DATE" meaning a beautiful girl and a guy who is clueless. "NIGHT" means, well it means evening part of the day. Anyways.

i took Claire out for what i called "Hot date night". I had everything planned (it wasn't that spectacular of a plan) and I picked her up. I had two plans, "Plan A" and "Plan B" and she was not allowed to know any of the details of them evening except to enjoy it. So first off, i picked her up and head towards Anderson (as i call it, A-town). the first part of Plan A was to eat at Olive Garden for a nice Italian meal. However, kink in the plan because we had to wait for 70 minutes. So i figure screw that! So we went to a Japanese Steak house called Fiji. There we shared a table with some local southerners and engaged in some quite humorous banter. We laughed, discussed jobs and explored names.

After the great meal ( i enjoy fried rice). We drove around A-town and end up at a little restaurant called "Sullivan's". It is a neat little place, full of flair, black wooden ceilings and fancy candles on the table. We both got coffee and desert. Sullivan's is known for there sweet deserts. Claire got a nice Chocolate Godiva Cake and I got a Banana (something) cheesecake. It was freaking amazing.

After that, we drove back to house and watched a Elizabethtown. Funny part is, earlier that day Claire was wanting to watch that movie since she has never seen it (she told me this after I told her we were going to watch it, ah fate stepped in again). And that concludes the "hot date night".

Also upon returning to the home for the movie part of the plan. I discovered that my roommate had also planned a "HOT DATE NIGHT" for his lady friend. Weird. I think, HOT DATE NIGHT was a success. Both roommates got to take out some pretty ladies...

so one question remains. who is the big winner tonight?

goodbye myspace

I have made the choice to leave my blogging at myspace and try this. I doubt, I will post more blogs here but i figure I am connected to more people on here than anything else. I also want to use this space to talk to you about new music and spread the word on bands and albums that i feel are worth checking out. I was posting my thoughts about stuff on the DCF website. However, there seems to be a lack of attention there. So, I figure I will continue to write about albums and also my life.
So here are some music to check out:
1. Josh Rouse and Paz Suay- "She's Spanish, I'm American": It is a collaboration between the two lover birds who are currently living in Spain. You probably have heard of Josh Rouse as the Americana, singer/songwriter and Paz Suay is his fiance. They are little Europe pop songs but also have a flirty but distinctive sound. I say go listen to "Answers" or "Ocean Always Wins".

2. Peter Bradley Adams- "Chant (song title)": Go check out this song. If you have ever of a group called "EastmountainSouth", he is the male vocalist. This track has a very earthy sound along with spiritual context. Also this song contains the background vocals of Alexi Murdoch ( if you haven't checked him out, you should!)

So, there you go. I just gave you two things to go check out for the first post. Actual post!.
For myself, I have been busy with getting caught up with work since taking some time for from work. I also started dating a girl, which i may add has been quite nice. I have been enjoying going out and learning about someone. I recommend dating. I think it is something, that makes me







come back to who i am. It is fun.
Family is well, Work is there. And my movie has started the process.
until next time.
be patient.

b. lo

the history

i am leaving myspace and moving here. Mainly because I can post music here and also i like the format better. i want to feel less connected to the entire globe. so here we go.
the history of cooper:
for all of you who don't know cooper. He is one of my best friends. I found him, covered by old boxes, dusty history books and out of date news papers in our basement. Since the amazing rescue, Cooper the Cougar, lives in my living room. Cooper has always been there for a down the earth talk and also a great listener. He is the first one that I introduce when visitors, visit the house.
