VACATION ALL I EVER WANTED

Today I had my last physical in pediatrics. I will miss the fish tank, blocks, and teddy bear all over print smocks.

I haven't grown at all since junior year of high school, thanks coffee. THIS IS HOW IT FEELS:

Last night I saw Alkaline Trio and Saves the Day. Here comes the h@t!ng!

Saves the Day- By far the worst set I've ever seen them play. I have seen them at least six times over the course of eight years; I feel like I am qualified to criticize . Songs were played from old to new. Mostly new though and everyone knows what a flop In Reverie was. The problem was that even the old hits that most people love were sung slowly and in a much different tone than usual. This town and this pace can be heard when listening to just about any song on "In Reverie." Yes somehow they even managed to ruin the hits. I must say Chris Connely has cleaned up much more than the last time I saw him and at least his hair is no longer pink. I still would pay to see them again in hopes of a comeback.

Alkaline Trio made me tap my foot and sing along. So that's something. Radio was ill live. I have never seen them before so I have nothing to compare last night to. What I can say is they are definitely a band that sounds just like they do on their album. Unlike Fall Out Boy both singers of ALK 3 can actually sing their parts live without sounding similar to a dying ferret.
Would pay to see them again. OH AND new songs were played and sounded catchy. So that's a plus (in my eyes).
