less than 20 days to go
well, i don't know what rock i've been living under, but i just learned that death cab for cutie will be releasing a new CD on august 30. "squealy goofyhead" would be a kind description of how i acted when this news revealed itself.
i also recently learned that august 31 is the day i've been waiting for for what seems like an eternity. a crate & barrel is opening in my town! i have been in love with crate & barrel ever since i first visited one in chicago, which was probably in about 1987 or something. i have lived in three different places, and have never had one in my town. i read the catalogues and feel tempted to buy everything. i go to stores in other cities and wonder how much merchandise i could stuff in my suitcase. when this one finally opens (and trust me, i will probably be there on august 31, busting in right at 10am), i'm a little afraid of what i might do. i'm guessing i will either go hog-wild and buy new furniture and accessories for every room in our house, or i will be so overcome with love and greed that i will completely shut down and merely buy a dishtowel.
I love Crate and Barrel! :)

the big day is tomorrow! i drove past the bee-yoo-ti-ful building yesterday and said, "i love you, crate & barrel."
