Watched The Good Night, last night. As hinted in a previous post, my main motivation for renting this DVD was that Meredith MacNeill was in it, and I’m crushing on her at the moment. I’d seen a screengrab of her from this flick, so I had a vague idea of where her character would first appear......

H&M’s jumping on the philanthropic celebrity apparel bandwagon, unveiling their new “Fashion Against AIDS” line of t-shirts for Spring. Wonderful idea, terrible name. Though, I’d much rather grab one of these shirts than the Gap “(RED)” products which all feature, wait for it… the word...
so today is valentine's day. i hate to admit that it actually really bothered me this year. i guess i thought i grew out of that feeling of neglect when i don't have a valentine, but i was more than wrong, i was dead wrong. around fourth period it started getting to me. the violin serenades being...
so today was multicultural day. it was a pretty good time. i was excited to represent peru, but didn't know if i'd really do it justice. to start, there are two parts to peru. they're the part i hate, and the part i love. the part i hate is the part that's like new york. the part that is this dirty,...
I watched the Brit Awards last night... well, not all the way through, obviously. I’m not quite that masochistic! No, I muted the sound and read a book, then turned the sound back up when someone I liked came on. Thus, my review of the show will be somewhat short and sweet... much like Kylie...

We're sitting in Starbucks. It's approximately one hundred and six million degrees (centigrade) outside. Kim is working on thank-you notes for her various baby showers (hopefully, before the baby comes, but it's not looking too good). I'm reflexively pressing "Refresh" on Dell's Order Status page....

Yeah, so, anyone who knows me knows that music is a HUGE part of my life. In fact, my life is divided up into music segments. From birth to around 5 years of age (1975-1980), my earliest music memories mostly consist of disco, ‘70s Top 40, and classic rock (especially Elton John, The Beatles, The...
Yes, it's true folks, he is! let him marinate in your being and soon you will also find that God has sent yet another child to earth. I recommend that you first listen to Poses, then you'll be ready for Want. Want II is not for the squeamish. If you're going threw something traumatic. Life change,...

Who or what do you really love? My religion James Dean films Andy Warhol men in suits Rufus Wainwright far Left politics my best friends (Scott, Susie, and Jason) being loved
I had a great, but nonstop weekend. After class on Friday, I went to see a performance by DJ Spooky. The performance was interesting - a [nearly] finished piece about Antarctica, Sound and Ice. Worthwhile and I am so happy to have gone. My friend scored us complimentary tickets and offered to make...
I am not a very musically-inclined person. I'd rather listen to NPR than a CD on my ride to work. I prefer to work in silence rather than with music in the background. I would rather watch something than simply listen to music, even if it is "Sunset Tan." Therefore I find it puzzling that I am so...
