Wilco: My Shot in the Arm

May 16, 2012

Six years ago this weekend, DadJovi and I got hitched in Key West. It was our perfect wedding. From start to finish, we personalized it to perfectly reflect who we are as a couple. To this day, one of my favorite parts of the ceremony is the song I chose to walk down the aisle [...]

One Last Birthday Blowout

February 26, 2012

The House Is Alive (With the Sound of Music)

June 29, 2011

One of the best wedding gifts we got five years ago was a record player. We love it and love to collect old and new records. We’re lucky to have two really great record stores near our house, but one of my favorite places to pick up records is yard sales. When my pal Missy [...]

The Airborne Toxic Event

May 28, 2011

By now, you already know that I LOVE music. One of the best things about Pandora is finding new bands, and I fight the urge to buy everything I like on iTunes. But I’ve still found the absolute best way to find new music is through friends. DadJovi’s friend introduced me to Wilco, my favorite [...]
