The Grammys, a journal, and a lot of library materials.

I meant to post about music on Monday for a 'Music Monday' feature, but I never got around to it. Sorry :p

The Grammys were on Sunday, but I only watched the last hour because Big Love was on (I've turned into a shameless HBO junkie since HBO Canada came on the air). I managed to catch the Best New Artist category - I was a little bummed out that Mumford & Sons didn't win, but then I've never listened to Esperanza Spalding. Her CD is on my to-listen list, though. And yay for Arcade Fire winning Album of the Year! I've only heard a little bit of their music, but I like what I've heard, and it's cool to see a Canadian band win that category.

I've been meaning to finish up my old journal and start my new one, but I can't bring myself to finish the old one. It's silly, I know, but that journal was kind of my buddy through some tough times, so it has some sentimental value to it. But at the same time, I want to start fresh with my newer journal - I got the journal for Christmas from my sister and her boyfriend two or three years ago, and I still haven't used it! It's a lot nicer than the exercise book I've been writing in, that's for sure.

I checked my library account online today, and I have eight items in. Two of them are DVDs, three are CDs, and three are crafting books. I'm pretty happy that I have all these items waiting for me to pick up, but at the same time I'm frightened by the number of items. I always feel guilty when I have a lot of items checked out :p I'm not sure why, but I do. Maybe I worry that I won't get through all of them?

I should probably eat soon, because my stomach is growling, so I'll bring this post to a close. Until next time...
