Tomorrow is going to be an interesting day.  There’s a possibility of afternoon thunderstorms and it’s going to be in the 80s all day.  I’m going to wind up bringing both sunscreen and an umbrella, taking no chances.  I’m excited for the lineup I’ve planned, though!  It’ll start out a little twee with Matt & Kim, but things are going to rachet up fast with the 29-member I’m From Barcelona Swedish music collective.  I hope they bring the whole band.  All in all, the music is going to kick my ass - I’m going to be jumping up and down for something like four straight hours bouncing from Clap Your Hands Say Yeah to The Hold Steady to Yeah Yeah Yeahs to Spoon.  I don’t know if I’ll have enough energy left at the end of that for Interpol or not.

I’m apparently just all about trying to die from exhaustion this week.  First my double-up bike ride, then a Lollapalooza weekend, then the Great Apartment Move-Out.
