Pick up/Christmas 2012



Tigers Jaw- "Two Worlds"- Run For Cover Records- Light Blue/400 (1st press)
Polar Bear Club- "Clash Battle Guilt Pride"- Bridge 9- Marbled Gray/Red/1000 (1st press)
Rocky Votolato- "Self-Titled"- Second Nature Recordings- Opaque Yellow/Solid Orange w/ Solid Red Splatter/270 (1st press)
Saves The Day- "In Reverie"- Dreamworks- Blacky vinyl/??? (SEALED, which I opened, DUH)
Quarters Volume Two Comp. 7" w/ The Casket Lottery, etc- Atarms Mechanics- Clear Blue/???

So heres what I got recently. Felt like getting some Polar Bear Club so I have picked up the two recently LPs for a solid price.

I am a very large fan of Rocky Votolato. For some reason I had completely neglected his very first self titled release. Don't even have it in Mp3 format, which I also could not find up for Download anywhere to preview! Saw this up and grabbed it for instore price. How cool the vinyl is was worth the gamble. Have to give it a few more spins.

The Quarters Volume 2 Comp 7" not only gives me the "collection" of having both 1 and 2 BUT IT COMPLETES MY CASKET LOTTERY COLLECTION! This is a HUGE deal! A perk is it also being on clear blue which was not in the auction title at all.

Lastly, this Christmas was a great one. My loving girl friend with the help of a friend resulted in my current possession of the largely saught after "In Reverie". I was taken back as I opened it not believing my own eyes as I read the spine before completely unwrapping it. A true shock and surprise that was not expected. It feels strange to own it. After chalking it up(with many others) to something you've already excepted you will probably just never own. What hurts most is i'm sure she paid a lot for it and for it to come in with a price sticker from Hot Topic on it which read "10.99" stings!

Nutmeg.

Christmas time is coming yet again. Every year this song comes to mind. As if you already didn't have enough reasons to like John Legend.

Oh, Christmas Tree



This is my Christmas tree! Its my first Christmas tree in my first apartment! I think she looks pretty darn good. I wish I could take credit for how good it looks but sadly, I only put about, 20 balls on it. My room mate Kendrah did ALL the hard work. I just couldn't find a minute to strap down and say "alright, lets do this!". So thanks Kendrah for the good looking tree! I'll try to not suck next year!

Merry Christmas



There is certain things in life. They're different for everyone. The thing(s) that bring you back to feeling like a child. It comforts you. Takes you away from the harshness of the world. The harshness of...age. It brings you to a place of innocence, away from all your worries, burdens and pains. It fills you with life. Maybe with the only glimpse of true happiness that any of us will ever feel in our lifetimes and your heart smiles.

Tonight I'll sleep with this light.

Tonight I'll pretend that magic is real.

Merry Christmas.

"Dear night lights, protect my sleeping babes, burn clear and steadfast tonight"

Christmas!

Like every christmas, I dont get much. Mainly because I always get money. Which is more than fine since I can then go out and get whatever it is that I want whenever I find it.

This year my sister got me a theme present, consisting of three parts. Of all Bukowski stuff.



FINALLY GOT A FRAME FOR MY PRINT!

AND I GOT THESE!



AND I bought these for myself earlyer this afternoon!


Now all I gotta do is find more things to buy with the other crap load of Dolla$ I have. Which shouldnt be too hard! Even though it usually takes me a year to spend holiday cash. I just got rid of my birthday money like...2 months ago, haha.

So yeah, thats Christmas! I hope yours went well and you got things that you wanted!
