workin' for the church while your family dies

i can't wait until march 6th. i have already pre-ordered neon bible, and with any luck it will actually show up the day it's supposed to. i'm totally obsessed with the new single, 'intervention' so i can't wait to hear what the rest of the album sounds like.

online shopping is going to be the death of me. first, it was the shoes. then a book. then a cd. and now, there is a hoodie i want. (mostly because i love dinosaurs. *sidenote - at work last week, a really cute boy was trying to fix the video conference set-up. he saw himself on camera and was like, "who's that? it must be that lawyer from jurassic park...jeff goldblum". and i was sitting there, both amused by the fact that he was inferring that he looked like jeff goldblum, but also amused that i wanted to be like, "actually, the lawyer from jurassic park is the dude that gets eaten by the t-rex off of the toilet pretty much right at the beginning of the show - it is clearly not jeff goldblum". but, like i said, the boy was cute - i have a soft spot in my heart for jeff goldblum look-alikes - so i let it slide*)

anyways, i'm never going to be able to save money if i keep buying crap online.

but when the only good shopping in your town is at wal-mart, you've gotta quench your need for retail therapy somehow. and i mean, i have nothing against wal-mart. i bought a shirt for $7 there yesterday. but sometimes, a girl needs more than a $7 dollar shirt.

and because i can, i'm going to give you a list of what music is making me salivate this weekend. go forth and acquire it for yourselves:

intervention - arcade fire
love will tear us apart - susanna and the magical orchestra
fidelity - regina spektor *also featured on last week grey's anatomy - it's awesome*
strict machine - goldfrapp
halleluja - jeff buckley
