Vancouverite; music-lover; small-time foodie; some kind of news/politics junkie; new wife!! You will often find me at a computer or peering into my iPhone.
The name of the blog comes from the song "Reckoner" by Radiohead. I've seen them in concert eight times in five countries, which is really negligible by the standards of some of my friends.

Gobama, indeed.
Pitchfork reports that the Arcade Fire are busking for their chosen candidate on Sunday and Monday in Ohio. Yay, AF! (Although personally, I think he should be asking Interpol for permission to use All Fired Up as a theme song.)
And
Happy damn Leap Year Day. Werchter announcement aside, I definitely got out of bed on the wrong side this morning. No particular reason (aside from Choobie pawing me awake with his stupid-ass claws that he won’t let me clip, SCREW … Continue reading
Werchter’s up.
€75 per day (€165 for all but I won’t be going to all). Friday so far includes Neil Young (cool) Moby (decent show, seen him before), The Verve (not my thing), Babyshambles (NMT), Digitalism (noncommittal), and Duffy (no idea). Not … Continue reading
Shout out
to my number one fan. *waves* *blows kiss* *growls* Rock Werchter are supposed to be selling tickets on Saturday. And yet, they haven’t announced which bands are playing which days, or how much tickets will be. This is T minus … Continue reading

Circularity
William Gibson has blogged about Die Ärzte, the band my college bf Rodrigo is now in…and whom I’m seeing in Berlin this summer when he plays the same venue as Radiohead a few days later. Another Gibson boardie from Berlin … Continue reading

Patriotism?
I came across this in my surfing this morning. The interesting thing to me about that article is his quote: In October, Obama told Iowa television station KCRG that he decided to stop wearing a U.S. flag lapel pin during … Continue reading
Telecommunication
is blowing for me right now. (As Shanny would say, you’re a big girl now: suck, don’t blow. But that’s beside the point.) I’m hearing from people I don’t care to hear from (well, not so much), and then the … Continue reading
What a week.
Well, not really, I guess. I’m just tired and sleeping a lot. Weather’s been nice. Serbia and Kosovo situation is alarming to say the least. Obama won the “Democrats Abroad” primary which is pretty cool. Tonight, another debate. Oh, after … Continue reading
