update my wardrobe

New Job = new clothes 3 years ago

Finally have a new job and some disposable income. So, though I am trying to eliminate debt as a primary goal, I have started to buy a couple items to supplement my wardrobe. I probably won’t really get moving on this until I pay off my small debts and bring others down quite a bit, but still, I got a new pair of jeans, a couple shirts, a couple pairs of shoes, and a new swimsuit, so that’s something!

Ozzfest 2006 3 years ago

For the second time, I’ve attended Ozzfest. It was a lot of fun, even though I don’t always like the hardest bands that attend the show… but my guy does so it is still fun because he has a good time. I really liked Walls of Jericho, Bleeding Through, & Atreyu, all of whom I saw for the first time at this concert. System seemed to have improved their stage presence greatly over the previous Ozzfest (2002) I saw them at.
