More things to think about
Tired- I was a huge pro wrestling fan when I was younger. Every now and then I go through phases where I watch it again, semi-seriously, and now is one of those times. I don't want WWE, but I've watched a lot of Chikara. A really great company that doesn't focus on steroids and fake tits, but humor, fun, and excitement. I wish I was that athletic.
- I am looking at becoming either a media librarian or a media archivist. I'm looking at various schools. Anyone know any schools with good graduate Information Sciences programs? The problem is that UT has one of the best in the nation, but none of my close friends live here anymore. I'm willing to apply to just about any school in the US, Canada, or Europe.
- I'm close to being able to say that I've seen every single Seinfeld episode.
- I bought all of Arrested Development this week. Super cheap deals on Amazon sometimes.
- I cooked scones tonight so I could take them into work for breakfast (not sharing them, of course). I already ate half of them.
- Iran has an election this weekend. People are excited.
- Paul Krugman is very smart and I like him very much.
- Brad Pitt's Chad is the best part of the Coens' Burn After Reading. It is a lesser Coen movie, but still quite funny.
- My cats are curled up together, alternating licking each other and biting each other.
- Reading is for chumps.
- I sort of want a tattoo, but I need to get into better shape before getting one.
- I don't like shaving.
- I bought a signed copy of Kurt Vonnegut's Timequake for $2.50 at a Half-Price Books. Apparently no one bothered to see that he had signed it.
- Rick Perry is running for re-election. His hair will be his Lt. Governor if he wins again.
- People were outraged, outraged, that a report warning about right-wing extremism was published.

PassengerShe wrote me:Passenger
This is the time of all things read; the time of books, clean hands, straw dogs, shared looks. This is the time that finds the time to settle down; to open that smile with enormous plans; to pound on metal rolled with rust; to lie when lovers lie, alone, quiet, in kitsch and style.
She wrote me:
Death for some is a careless cat, one that lacks a voice—and love— and never plays chess. But that is not my choice. You see, I prefer the quieter sort; the kind of death that stalks one

Ginger Ale “Can we open it yet?”Ginger Ale
“Not yet, Lizzy. We're not done.”
Lizzy pouted, her small features twisting in on themselves until she resembled a statue. The two girls were walking alongside a narrow, lonely country road. Old industrial debris was scattered along the trail: the rusting wheels of semi-truck, bales of copper wire slowly unfurling from wind and feet, and more remnants of a better time. A successful time.

Modes of Travel“Modes of Travel”Modes of Travel
You avoid traffic at all costs, refusing to leave the house at certain times of day. Rush hour is treated like a wild dog or an impending hurricane. We should board up the windows and doors, ration the water and food until six o’ clock.
Maybe you just hate the stop-and-go, your stomach jumping into your throat each time your car inches forward,
hits the brakes. Maybe it’s the time you could have spent elsewhere, writing

magnificent.magnificent
Today, dead people are two feet farther from the sun. All this white and the sterile icebox cold has contracted my lungs and pupils and replaced the cluttered punctuation in my head with the sanctuary of winter.
The snow has me using words like magnificent again, things I never thought would cover the landscape again.
Today, I woke up with the feeling back in my arms and my hands were damn near frozen. I was in need of your hearth and homemade bread served on a table made of wood, whose grain is swelling with the heat. &nbs

Two guys are driving to work when one asks the other if he talks to his wife after sex.
"Yes," replies the guy. "If I can find the phone."
