I got the 1st off of work!

Yay! I finally got the courage to say no to the scheduling lady when she asked me if I wanted more hours. Sorry for the few and far between posts. The scheduling lady has this pouty face that makes me feel like I'm killing kittens if I don't work, therefore, no time for posting as there can never EVER be enough kittens in the world. So, the first. I have it off. My little buggy is finally fixed and I'm taking her and the boyfriend down to phoenix to see the Go Reflex together for the last time. ::sniffle::
If you have somehow stumbled across my blog and have not heard of The Go Reflex, here is what people have said:
"The Go Reflex is a pretty kick-ass band despite having a name that falls into my category of "most annoying band names ever" (you know: throw "The" in front of two grammatically incompatible words, a la The Get Hustle, The On Seduction, et al)." --Jim Bodden
"The Go Reflex is the brainchild of Bob Hoag, former songwriter of the Tempe, AZ indie-rock/power pop band Pollen (Wind-Up Entertainment/Fueled By Ramen Records) with fellow Pollen-er Kevin Scanlon. This four piece is what you would get if Jimmy Eat World, Radiohead, and Ben Folds all got in a car crash…intricate pop songs on a piano through a Marshall half-stack along with blaring guitars played at incredibly loud volume." --Sunset Alliance Bands
"A light came on to trigger the robot's 'GO' reflex, and pretty much without the assistance of their human creators, two teams robots went about the task of collecting black or white ping-pong balls and dragging them back to their teams side."--Botball 2001
"Lyrics are recalled to the best of my ability and are subject to a .009% margin of error." - Bob
"The Go Reflex steals the show with the stunning "Rincon Life", a slice of piano and vocal harmony-layered pure pop beauty in the Beach Boys' "Pet Sounds" mold." -Chris Hansen, Get Out
"Bob is one of the greatest drummers I've ever heard, as well as being a gent and a fine songwriter, to boot--he does literate, post-Descendents girl angst better than almost anyone in the business." --Rob Conroy

"The GO reflex must also be inhibited during GDV - either as a primary event or secondary result - as is the normal ‘emergency’ opening of the pylorus - otherwise gastric dilation would not be possible." --Stephen Baines, Department of Clinical Veternary Medicine, University

I stumbled upon this blog while, as might be expected, trying to find Bob Hoag. I was looking for him in the way of finding his lyrics for "Fortune Cookie Heaven," which is, of course, a brilliant song. And while I had no luck finding lyrics anywhere on the entire internet, I did meet with the good fortune of being able to read some of your witty writing on a subject very near to my sentimentalities.
Give my regards to Mr. Hoag, if you see him.
Also, I'll translate that Japanese for you...

”Drummer/songwriter Bob Hoag's new concept and the thing he's doing with Kevin Scanlon is The Go Reflex. What might be called piano-power-pop bursts (i.e. explodes--in good, exciting way)."
