My landlord allowed me one extra day at my old place so I'll be cleaning today (waste of a perfect day if you ask me) but then I'm done and can get back to living my real life.

Earlier this week I got a press release about Hot Water Music's new album, Exister.
Hot Water Music’s EXISTER debuted this week at number #33 on the Billboard Top Current Albums this week with over 10,400 records sold. This marks the band’s highest debut in its illustrious career. Exister, which was released on May 15, 2012 via Rise Records also logged in at #3 VinylRosemaryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12261917303245243538noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37241561.post-50562786314367704462012-05-24T07:00:00.000-07:002012-05-26T11:14:05.373-07:002012-05-26T11:14:05.373-07:00Things To Do In San Diego: May 24-25, 2012This week has been so hectic but hopefully you're all looking forward to a nice long holiday weekend and this city has so much to offer it is kinda ridiculous.

In case you missed it, there was a partial solar eclipse and I was so grateful that Chase bought a bunch of eclipse viewing glasses from the Reuben H Fleet Science Center.

Back in December, I had the first show ever and fell in love with the room. Since then, Soda Bar has had a couple shows there, but it was probably the sold out show with The Rapture that did the best to expose the venue to new eyes and ears.

Vacationer took the stage first and were very well received.
