The weather in Houston, TX is:

vindicated.

9:47 a.m.

On Monday night, I heard a song on the radio during that late night hour when they play random new stuff. This is rare for me, because I'm not exactly the music buff of the century, I just listen to whatever gets played a lot. Anyway, I totally missed the name of the band and the song. I did here "The bands next scheduled performance is in their hometown of Boca Raton at the University Center." Bizarre. Boca is not exactly the live music capital of the century. And FAU isn't exactly my idea of the venue of the century. And, Boca Raton is known more for its "qtips" (old, bad drivers) than it is for having a young, hip population (with the exception of the brats who got boats for their birthday gifts and didn't go to public school with me). I mean, I was hip for Boca. What does that say? (This is the signal to cue up e-mails from Georgy and Maayan telling me that I was, in fact, never hip.)

To make an already long story shorter, I found the band. (The Internet is a beautiful thing). Its Dashboard Confessional, and the song is "Vindicated." The lead singer is VERY hot (from his full page magazine spread in some teen magazine I found when I googled him) and he is in fact from Boca Raton. The band's last performance was in Austin (which is the live music capital...) Then, I went to get it on trusty iTunes, and it turns out to be on the Spider-Man 2 soundtrack. This means that I couldn't purchase just the song, I had to purchase the entire soundtrack. Sigh. But I'm listening to it now, and it was totally worth it.

As Sarah points out: For the record, Dashboard Confessional and "Vindicated" isn't random or new. It's actually been a popular song all summer, it was on the Spiderman 2 soundtrack, which you discovered. I could have given you just that song. Hee hee. Again, I repeat, I don't exactly pay attention to these things unless I get hit over the head with the song playing over and over again.

Tonight, swimming and mad studying for a test tomorrow and cleaning for Grandma's and Caroline's visit.
