i had lots of news, but lack of time and internet connecivity have made me realize that my news is boring and so is this blog. you would be better off reading this.

i still want to post here because it keeps me thinking in different ways, so i guess i’ll be thinking of different ways to post here. i suppose that proves my point.

suggestions welcomed.

the holiday party: was fun

the hors d’oeuvres: were silly

a day won’t change a thing

it’s like finding home

in an old folk song

that you’ve never ever heard

still you know every word

and for sure you can sing along

–

five papers to write

four holiday parties to attend

three pages left in my journal

two coasts to say goodbye and hello to in

one week’s time.

–

it snowed last night <3

–

i finished ulysses.

–

on a bit of a devendra banhart kick.

particularly bad girl from the

smokey rolls down thunder canyon album.

listen to it?

reasons why i love my apartment/steph/colin:

you’re never gonna be on time.

things from the week i would have babbled to you about, had you been there when i got home to my cold, cold apartment. instead i’m just going to save them up at accost you with it all at once. bring a tissue.

:in the vein of day+theme+alliteration, i think i’m bringing fridayflash back. not that i was ever very good with it to begin with.

:thanks to the awesome people I intern for at fsg, and to the bookbench at the NY’er (not the blog, but a literal bench in the editorial section at the magazine in which books sent to the various editors are up for grabs), i am amassing a small library of free books, art magazines, and graphic novels… now if only i had the time to read them.

:proofreading machine–between the managing ed. department at fsg and freelancing for avalon, i’ve never felt so powerful with a freshly-sharpened color pencil.

:obama is giving weekly addresses via youtube.

:there are about 15 interns at fsg, and we like each other. our lively conference-room chats, however, prompted one of our editors to make a (joking) remark on our “four hour lunches.” we have thus been inspired to plan a “Four Hour Dinner Party,” and are considering making flyers for it to put up around the office. interns only.

:for some unknown reason, i can’t stop thinking about this fiction piece from the NY’er.

:”Every time Obama opens his mouth, his subjects and verbs are in agreement,” says Mr. Logsdon. “If he keeps it up, he is running the risk of sounding like an elitist.” more here.

:Japan Winter Light show (here)

:fffound. (here)

: COOL! especially when it shines… oh, directly into our windows at work. did i say shines? i meant goes berserk. in red and white.

: i’m a little in love with her

: amalia’s 90′s-tastic, girls-only, 22nd birthday: never been kissed, empire records, funfetti cake, and conversation centered around jtt, bath and body works lotion sets, dr. pepper lip smackers, glitter roll-on eye makeup, fan-fiction, etc.

: cold no more! i have a space-heater! her name is cleo.

:fffound (here)

make yourself happy. for less than $8.
