Last night Richie and I got a much needed break from the day to day stresses of our jobs.  Back in November we purchased tickets to see Sigur Ros in Houston.  This is our second time seeing the band and as someone who’s seen LOTS of bands live I can honestly say they are at the top of my list.

Sometimes it seems that nothing exciting is happening in your life.  Know what I mean?  It’s a series of days and weeks that consist of work, dinner, laundry, grocery shopping, house cleaning, bathing, sleep… and starting all over.   Good God I’m sick of it!   And yes, you guessed it, no TIME for any renovation projects.   (more on that in an upcoming post!)

I was getting so pumped up about the approaching Morrissey concert in December only to get an email that his mother had taken ill and he would be postponing the tour.  Ahhh DAMN!  I can’t say ….
