Wedding Spree

God bless Drieg. Seriously.

I never give him as much credit as he deserves, but in all honesty I've been blessed with a truly incredibly brother. He's totally come through on this wedding stuff and in so doing has made my life much easier. In all honesty, the only thing left do to other than make a dance mix is the bachelor party and Drieg is totally taking care of that.

Brilliant. I love this guy.

Aside from that, last night was part one of Nena and my wedding retail therapy. See, at some point Nena realized that the only way she was going to get through the stress of the wedding and still be able to look at the pictures of her from said wedding was to go in for some serious spa work. With that in mind, she's spending Thursday before the wedding getting the works, yo. Facial, 30 min salt scrub, hottubbing, full body massage- like I said, serious work.

This put me at a crossroads. I COULD have gotten the same thing and done some sort of his and hers spa experience and I very nearly booked myself for a facial. . .until I came up with a better idea. Retail therapy.

I decided to treat myself to a DAS ÜBERBÜY shopping spree.

What did I get? What didn't I get?

Soundtrack- Oklahoma (cuz we drive through there enough we figure we should sing along.
Celia Cruz- Siempre Vivire (cuz she rules)
The Blind Boys of Alabama- Spirit of the Century
Modest Mouse- Good News for People Who Love Bad News
Counting Crows- Films About Ghosts
Kanye West- The College Dropout (I had it on mp3 already but it's so good, I had to pay for it)
Maria Mena- White Turns Blue
My Morning Jacket- It Still Moves
Dashboard Confessional- A Mark.A Mission.A Brand.A Scar (Spec. Ed.)
Los Lobos- The Ride

Yeah, I went a bit crazy. And that's not even counting the movies I picked up.
X2
Batman
Victory (Stallone, Pele, Max Von Sydow AND Michael Caine, how can you resist?)
The Program
Major League
Michael Jordan: To the Max

Hee hee, I loves me some media, yo.

Seriously, this is more than enough new music and movies to get me through the wedding in fine style, yo. Let Nena get her massage, I'll be sitting in my hotel room watching movies. All wedding attendees are more than welcome to hang out in my suite and chill, yo. . .well. . .yknow. . .yeah.

;)

Review requests? Yes, I know I still have the new Ozo and Wilco to write about. . .I've just been busy.
