| pet peeve | how many times does mike bloomberg need to be sworn in exactly? (is he afraid we are all having problems believing he's really mayor? i know i am but the multiple swearing in thing isn't helping any) |
| obsession du jour | voting for jason kidd on the nba all-star ballot cuz he's only 5th or something |
| to do | get a copy of the new richard hell thingie and re-read the waves |
| ponder | why i have a hard time relating to people who haven't been attacked by and then spit out by the existential void |
| sports team du jour | michael jordan--i have to give it to him 38 years old and 53 points or something and he killed the nets |
| sounds | carter family last radio telecast cd that i borrowed from anthony and never returned |
| film | i walked out on chocolat |
| tv | bowl games, bowl games, bowl games--why, why, why? are people who play football that much dumber than people who play basketball? there is a coherent way of determining the best college basketball team in the country yet with college football it is like the tostito bowl, the motor city bowl, the cotton bowl and yet none of them appear to matter as to who is the best team in the country. |
| book | i rolled over on the anthology of black humor in bed last nite and i had a back ache all day. the moral of the story: i have to read more and sleep less |

| food | i am fasting now that the holidays are over |
| beverage | diet coke |
| people | There
were many moments like that in the Vine...where you might
think today was yesterday, and yesterday was tomorrow,
and so on. Because we all believed we were tragic, and we
drank. We had that hopeless, destined feeling. | Denis
Johnson, "Out on Bail" |
| random additions or subtractions from any or all of the above | i'm so in navel gaze overdrive i'm almost ready to play hope sandoval cds |
many thanks to my friend at Nerdslut for allowing me to rip her off
