running on empty...

i had every intention of writing a real time blog tonight. it was gonna be about the wilco concert at millennium park. but i'm freaking exhausted... as usual. i get up roughly at 5:45am every morning so that i can hit snooze for 30 minutes and then get ready for work. and i guess i have no room to complain, because that's what everyone else does. but i used to sleep at 5:00am, and my internal clock is taking its sweet ass time adjusting.

naps are good.

so when i get home every day, i just check the web to see if anna has written me something in german... and if she has, then i'm happy and i go to sleep. and if she hasn't, then i'm sad and i go to sleep. either way, i always forget to check my email, pay bills, and update my blog.

luckily, i was able to do one of those tasks tonight.

who sings that?

so i saw this jcpenny commercial today and i noticed two things... number one, jcpenny's marketing department or the ad agency that's helping them, has been doing a great job trying to improve their image. kudos to them. number two, they've been using some great background music in their commercials. i know that regina spektor sang one of the older ones, but in the one i saw, they used the song " all that i want ", by the weepies . and by the way, i don't know if you pronounce it weep-ies, like freebies or wee-pies, like levi's . anyways, i think that if you don't watch tv a lot, you pay more attention to the commercials, and in this particular case, the soundtrack was delicious.
