Heavy-hearted in the Midwest since 2011
Man, it’s been quite the holiday freakout. It’s been a haze of paint fumes and Sauder manuals since last Saturday but it all came to a head on Tuesday night when everyone had moved into their own little corner of the world. I don’t think my son even remembers what it’s like to have space […]
Read More HolidazeIt was two years ago today that I took the plunge and decided to start a blog. It was something I’d been considering for a long time, as I felt I needed some sort of outlet for all the thoughts and opinions in my head. So on December 8th, 2011 I did it. I created […]
Read More Two Years Here…This is my jam tonight. Lights down low, Christmas lights blazing in the corner of the room to give the proceedings a ethereal vibe. My wife and oldest daughter headed to the big city to do some clothes shopping while my younger two and myself stayed home. My 10 year old daughter has a head/chest […]
Read More TwoismYou know, for a Black Friday it’s pretty damn beautiful out. Brisk bordering on damn chilly, but the sun is shining like the blazing star it is. Skies are blue, with a hint of purplish hue near the horizon. Trees are bare and skeletal, showing their naked winter fashion with pride as they occasionally shake […]
Read More Thoughts for a (Black)FridayJust a quick note to say hello and I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving tomorrow. I’ll be dining right here on the Hubner compound with more Hubners. It should be a wonderful time. Lots of grub, pie, coffee, wine, insufferable waist lines, and a longing for stretchy pants. I’m sure we’ll play some board […]
Read More One more day to gluttony…So this post has nothing to do with live nude girls. In fact, it’s the complete opposite. It’s about live clothed guys. Pasty, Midwestern guys that for one year played a string of gigs in dive bars, basement pubs, rock clubs, and an Eagles Post. It’s also about how one of those guys, me, decided […]
Read More Live Nude Girls!!Man, all I can say is that I’m glad my ass is firmly planted in a chair at home. A vanilla porter is sitting next to my lap top and it’s Friday night at 5:27 pm. That means the work week is once again winding down. Groceries are purchased, vinyl is spinning, and I’m not […]
Read More J. Hubner, Being Thankful, and the Grizzly BearIt’s been well over a year since my wife and I have gone to a concert. In fact, it was March of 2012 when we went to see Dr. Dog in Indianapolis. It was a great show, and we paid the extra $20 for each of us to get a seat in the old folks […]
Read More My Bloody Valentine This Sunday!Finally, Friday is here. It’s been far too long. After groceries, running kids here and there, renting videos, and picking up pizzas, my ass is finally in my chair next to my records spinning BoC’s ‘Geodaddi’ that I just picked up. You know, they say home is where the heart is(who are they, and who […]
Read More Friday, I’ve missed thee….Holy s**t, what a weekend. It was such a crazy weekend that I’m just now writing about it on Tuesday. I haven’t posted since last Friday, and that’s really unusual for a guy like me that feels the need to blog everyday. I picked up some musical goodness in the form of Dr. Dog’s B-Room […]
