When I was a younger lad, I did a bit of consulting in IOWA. It ruled. I listened to the Run Lola Run soundtrack a bunch. I am listening to it now. wtf kind of entry is this.. seriously. gawd.. heh

Last night was really fun. I hung out with marcia again.. we just chilled. I forget how nice it is to chill out and not go out. I have gone out almost 20 nights/month for the past year. that is roughly 240 nights/year. heh. I think it might be about 65% of the nights.. whoa. I am a club kid. (this is where I would make the house/techno music noise.. um-tis um-tis um-tis.. and dance). anyhow..
