That’s Coleridge.  I like it because it’s gross and the rhythm is perfect.  The line break is between things and lived.  If you’re wondering.  Anyway.  Upward, not northward!  Here we go.
I have a vacation coming up.  This is wonderful, wonderful, wonderful.  There is sure to be a leisurely perusal of books I’ve already read, piping hot paper [...]

When I woke up this morning, two things were immediately clear:  My sinuses, one.  And two, it’s kinda chilly out.  I can’t even describe my joy.  I bounded out of bed.  I was  a happy, slobbery puppy.  I got coffee.  I did a little boogie.  I applied eye makeup with ferociousness and without fear.   I [...]

I’m reading a new book called Netherland, by Joseph O’Neill.  It’s been well reviewed, it’s popular, whatev.  Many people I know have already read it.  Well.  I guess I could just say Wayne’s already read it, but I think he told me someone else did too, possibly Bryan.  So far it’s about New York, cricket, [...]

Finally.

Finally, I bought five chapsticks.  It cost five dollars.  I put one on my nightstand, one on my dresser, one on my desk, one in my purse, one in my drawer at work.  So that’s the end of the Perpetually Lost Chapstick Chronicles.  Why I never thought of this before is beyond me.  It can’t be [...]

I’m feeling springy!!!!!!! Despite the real-world circumstances. Such as: it is like 35 degrees outside, and the rain is the slanty kind that hurts your face. At least, that was the state of things when I walked to the train this morning. Plus we’re still in that phase where Spring is a huge jerk (paraphrased [...]

Luckily, Gillian tagged me on this on her blog (Lint of Pocket, to your right) and since it’s Monday and I managed to lose like 3 hours of sleep in the time change somehow (magic) I can answer these handy questions instead of wondering if there’s anything good to write about. It’s an award with [...]

So yeah, I did get my nails done. But I communicated with the nail technician to not destroy my calluses as was her instinct, and when she was filing them I kept saying “shorter, shorter.” It worked well. I have guitar-proof nails in Suzi Says Da.
So what the heck about the weather huh? Not to [...]

Well first of all, I’d like to take this time to advocate the Meyers Briggs Personality test.  I took it on a whim yesterday and it was eerily correct.  I am a INFP.  Which means, basically, that if I am not careful I could end up being the crazy lady who lives in a dilapidated [...]

Well.  My nails look great, that’s one thing.  I painted them lilac last night… the perfect color for Fall, I say.  Because you’re putting on your coat for the first time, and there are your long sleeves and oh yeah it’s raining and the water is seeping into your shoes and what do you want [...]

Today is Wednesday that feels like Tuesday, one of my favorite kinds of day.  Generally my brain catches up later in the week, but it’s those first two days that every time you think, “What day is it?” you go, “Tuesday– no!– Wednesday.”  I like it.  It’s another thing that’s like standing on your bed and [...]
