Hi there, I’m Brian McKinney

Developer, designer, musician, recording engineer. In other words, I like to make things

Taking the weekend off after working a bunch the last several days. No idea what to do with my time when I'm not working on something.

Bluegrass! — at The Gaslight [1]

At the Gaslight listening to a Blue Grass band. Reminds me of Winfieid and how much I miss that place.

@codysoyland Lala. Half of the songs I try to play have blips, gaps, or just plain stop half way through. Also the sound quality sucks.

Grooveshark is interesting, but the shaky sound quality and unreliable meta data make it annoying enough for me not to use it.

Hrm. What should I do this weekend?

Man, I saw @thisphrase at the Pig, and she didn't even stop to say hi. Burn.

"So I don't know how to ask this, but why was everything in...working order?" Man! I just had a double cheeseburger!

If you get a tattoo, get it somewhere where a judge can't see it.

Tonight I'm taking the night off. Huge celebration is in order. It's going to be a good night.

Ohhhhhhhhhhh yeahhhhhhhhh! Celebration time!

When I go to get an afternoon drink at Starbucks, I order the "Glenstansberry". It's quite refreshing, highly recommended.

After this week, I can honestly say — I need a holiday. A very long holiday. And I don't expect I shall return...In fact I mean not to.

@DScottFritchen Deploying a bunch of web application code for the World Company in Lawrence.

Anna — I'll write, I'll sing, telegraph, telephone, telling you I'll be back soon. Dienu.

Playing some guitar for the first time in the last few days reminds me how boring everything else is.

A cucumber gin and tonic? That is quite refreshing.

Well, this afternoon was once again made for a patio and I'm not wasting it inside an office.

I've got to get back to my city by the bay. This simply won't do — listening to Kram, Powderfinger, Pete Murray..et al today.

Thanks to @slimfender for the assist. Listening to Under the Blacklight at the moment, forgot what a good album this was.

"Wake up late and honey put on your clothes and take your credit card to the liquor store. That's one for you, two for me." GnR is awesome.

Epic design/dev session tonight. Still a couple of hours to go. There's no rest for the wicked. Definitely not this week anyway.

@slimfender Do you think this will help with my cooking skillz? [1]

Man, thought I found the perfect house to rent for next year, then found out I was a day too late. Bummer.

Also in the trailer for said documentary, she mentions a scene from Night of the Hunter as part of her inspiration. No wonder it's so good.

So the newest Bat For Lashes album is kind of ridiculously good, but I'm pissed that I bought the album without the documentary.

Why am I listening to the Darkness today? Because "My heart's on overdrive and you're behind the steering wheel."
