A big round of applause for cheaptoy week. This is about as metal as I ever got.

Enslaved – Thoughts Like Hammers

And now we've come to the end of my week. Thanks for letting me reflect, everyone. This is my most recent album purchase and I became addicted from the opening riff of this song, which opens the album Riitiir, they're most recent release. I really need to explore their back catalog. This is a pretty great mix of the stuff I like about heavy metal. There's the growl and the clean vocals, excellent guitar work, an obvious passion for what they're playing/singing about, and norse mythology related lyrics (always a good source for this kind of music.)

We also want to wish a very happy birthday to GreekHouse and to freealonzo’s mother.
October 20, 2013: Red Sox vs. Cardinals
Well, it feels like a World Series matchup - I'll give it that. It's also the #1 seeds in both leagues - that doesn't happen very often anymore.

Saturday, October 19, 2013, Fall Double
Got in a nice 5mi run with the gang at my running store this morning. Everyone is still a little sore from last week's Hartford Half Marathon. And since my club closes at 1 on Sat, I got in there in time to get in some laps as well.
