Adam’s Essentials: 3/02/12

2 Mar

1.)Tennessee

I’ve currently been here a week and it’s awesome. I’ve gone hiking twice, explored an abandoned house, gone to a fancy wine party, went to a few good bars, and learned that my lack of an accent totally gives away that I’m not from around here. If I ever needed to relocate I’d probably make my way south.

 

2.) McKay Books, CD’s, Movies and More

If you’re ever in the Knoxville, TN area this place should be high on your list of places to visit (chances are if you’re visiting this area your list is short enough to accompany this addition). This place is awesome. I could easily spend an entire day there looking through their huge selection of used CD’s and I could easily spend another full day looking at DVD’s. Their prices are awesome and their standards for CD’s are insane. They have “scratched” and “very scratched” CD’s that are anywhere from nineteen cents to a dollar. I’ve bought CD’s in both conditions and have yet to find an actual scratch. This last time through I found Converge’s Axe to Fall and The Walkmen’s Everyone Who Pretended to Like Me is Gone. I wish there were more places like this all over the world.

 

3.) Erik Fox

I got to see this dude for the first time in 9 months and I get to see him again tonight. We’re gonna drink some beers and watch a movie or ten. I’m glad he’ll be living here in Tennessee, not only because he’ll be closer but it gives me one more excuse to come down here often. I suggest that if you don’t have an Erik Fox that you should go find one. If you can’t find one I’m sure his parents wouldn’t mind making another one.
