I cleaned out my car & found my Neutral Milk Hotel cd.

Billboard April 8 2006.

• New Built To Spill today.
  
• I'm planning on buying it on my way to Indianapolis this afternoon.
  
• Everyone wish me luck on my panel thing!
  
• Is there an Ulta or Sephora in Indy?
  
• I totally need some new perfume.
  
• I also believe I will tell the story of the Last Time I Was In Indianapolis when I come back.
  
• Hey, no double cover action this week. That's nice.
  
• Jenny Lewis is not looking cute here.
  
• Wide stripes on a mini-dress with a giant sash is not a good choice.
  
• Wait, the Get Up Kids broke up?
  
• I'm so behind the not-relevant-anymore times.
  
• Hee--Little Steven is making up band names in his column.
  
• OK, until I can get a full-on iPod/phone and not just "Download 4 songs to your cell!", I don't care about the shit you can put on your phone.
  
• Plus, I'm not worrying about iPod-type stuff until I move back to the Land of Commuting By Public Transportation and Walking.
  
• You know, some asshole in the small town I work in cut me off yesterday while I was trying to cross the street and totally had the right of way.
  
• No one remembers pedestrian around here. It's weird.
  
• And then the maintenance man for the library I guess honked at me from his truck.
  
• I realize there's a lot of things about GirlWorld that boys/men don't know about, but you have to realize if I'm walking down the street and someone just honks, I'm going to ignore it.
  
• Much like, if you see me on the street, you must call out my actual name, because no girl worth her salt responds to "Hey, girl!"
  
• Where'd the expression "worth her salt" come from anyway?
  
• You'd think I'd know that; I did read the damn history of salt book after all.
  
• Oh, god, Chryssie "I'm not a Feminazi" Hynde is doing 6 questions.
  
• Why do I feel this is somehow related to all the Davies-solo-album press?
  
• Oh, Pretenders have a box set coming out.
  
• "I never had [another] girl in the band, because I never wanted it to get too emotional."
  
• There's only one Pretenders song I really like anyway: "Back on the Chain Gang"
  
• I guess I'm just too much of an emotional girl for them.
  
• Maybe it's because it's that time of the month.
  
• Queensryche have a new album coming out.
  
• There's this adorable little white-with-green-trim fairy tale looking bungalow in the real estate section.
  
• It looks like the house Dirk and Weetzie inherit from his grandmother.
  
• Wait--Alice in Chains are still a band?
  
• Did they pull an INXS?
  
• Or do they have a Bernie who moved into singer mode?
  
• And Dave Navarro's in a band called Panic Channel now?
  
• John Varvatos served mini-corndogs at the launch of his new (cheaper) collection? That's awesome.
  
• AND the New York Dolls performed!
  
• Without Johnny Thunders, presumably.
