Madonna was added to the Coachella bill.
Madonna.
In the Dance Tent on Sunday.
WHAT?!?! Are you kidding me?!?!
Freaking out. So excited. Can’t believe it. This is going to be insane and awesome and I’m jumping out of my skin with anticipation.
I wasn’t that excited by the line up but was looking forward to a more relaxed go of things compared to last year and checking out a lot of new bands. Now with this addition… this is going to be crazy.

On the way to the Home Depot Center, a venue I’d never been to, on the crowded 405 on a fine Friday evening, blasting the Liberty album by Duran Duran, I hear an odd whacking noise. Turn down the music and realize it’s coming from my car. Eddie and I both think it’s one of my tires.

Can life get any sweeter? Not only are more friends now able to go to Coachella but now my boy is flying down for it too. We didn’t think it would be possible, but we managed to find a great flight for the cheapest price we’ve seen yet. I’m so giddy.
Plus, according to Peter Jackson, the extended edition of The Two Towers will have 43 minutes of additional material! (Ignore the part where he mentions they’ve already cut 25 minutes from Return of the King or my mood will turn sour.)
Clay was simply wonderful last night on AI. Gave me much giddiness and smiles.
There’s a new episode of That 70′s Show on tonight. (Don’t think about spoilers and it’s all good.) Plus more AI.
Ash are going to do a headlining tour starting next month. Not only will I see them in Los Angeles, but there’s a good chance I’ll see them in Seattle now too.
I just bought the new Harry Potter DVD. And the new Roger Rabbit DVD.
I finally ordered new glasses. And computer glasses too. So my eyes will feel much better soon I hope. (I’ve been getting massive headaches lately and my eyes have been seriously bugging out.)
I saw The Datsuns last Saturday night. They blew all the hype out of the water by rocking so hard. Amazing. Incredible. Definitely one of the top shows of the year so far. I had a smile on my face almost the entire time. (Minus the drunk leech trying to molest me for half the night.)
I’m going see Moulin Rouge Friday night with all kinds of buddies to sing along at the top of my lungs.
I’m sure there’s more goodness… but I’m already rambling on far too long.
Even though my DSL at home is crap and not working cause my phone lines apparently suck ass and there’s all the woes going on in the world (if I stop my selfishness for a second and reflect), the sun is shining. The sky is blue. And I’m breathing. I’m safe. I’m happy. I’m looking forward to things. Today is a good day.
