Last show I went to, I saw tons of young guys alone with their phones. I was the woman alone, looking around, thinking, geez, if you looked up from your phone (and weren't such a dingus for taking pictures with your iPad) I might strike up a conversation. I do know the guys you are talking about, though.

I finally watched my first Jeeves and Wooster last weekend and it is nothing but entertaining and pleasing. Nothing demanding or dark about it.

Like html tags, Pasta. open angle bracket b close angle bracket etc

Wait, is that what old people do? Anyone in SF want to see shows?

Earthquake!! That was exciting! 6.0! Woke me up out of a beautiful dream about fireflies—grabbed the kiddo and hit the floor.
Taylor Swift Must play new song multiple times a day. Totally catchy. Or crafty alien plot.
Colorless Tsukuru Strange experience of such flat narration and then beautifully striking similes.…

I'm not sure if I agree. However, I've been meaning to learn more about the Situationists. Recommendations?

Sorry about the lady friend. And did you go to the Yanni concert unironically? Details, please.

I have the day off and if I get all my chores done, I will do my part for Boyhood tonight. And for local cinemas.

I'm sure they gave all your CDs to Goodwill years ago. You're not getting them back.

I LOVE SLEEPYHEAD!!!!!!

Is Tyson coming to anyone else's town next year? I got tickets (pricey tickets) because my kid and I enjoyed the show so much. And now I see he is offering special meet-and-greet time for even more money. Does this seem weird or am I holding a scientist to an unfair standard?

Without knowing the specifics, it sounds nice that your dad's side will socialize with your mom. I know it means a lot to me that my ex-in laws still enjoy my company. We've all been reading you go through all this and I think you are handling it with a lot of kindness and patience.

Christmas is Alan Rickman Day at my house: Die Hard and Love, Actually.

Will someone write a song about dollars in grassy swales, please?

I discovered that I like at least two Arcade Fire songs, thanks to Pandora, when I thought I really didn't care for any.

Thanks for saying the new Murakami is at least worth the time. When I read that it is similar to Norwegian Wood, I didn't get too ambitious about requesting it from the library. I like the weirder ones more too.

Do you watch Murdoch Mysteries?

My first record! I bought it with a gift certificate I won with my amazing mime routine in a talent show. There's my childhood in a nutshell, right there.

Yep, I am liking all over the place in solidarity and affection.

Ha! I hadn't thought about it not melting. I like the cheese on the crispy potato taco because it is kind of all cold after they put all that sauce on. This talk couldn't overcome my craving for a samosa chaat and I finally gave in tonight. How about a taco with apple coleslaw?
