Born Alone - Wilco

This is pretty close to the perfect catchy-songs-with-depressing-lyrics that made you fall in love with Wilco in the first place.

When I’m not writing things down on tumblr, I’m madly scribbling things down in one of these.  The reporter style is a little Harriet-the-Spy-esque.  It has a pocket in the back, which I reserve for notes from other people, like the ones written by old men in coffee shops recommending public radio programs.

A friend gave me this sweater today.  He wore it constantly last winter, but shrunk it in the wash and passed it on to me.  It’s best worn inside out and smells like coffee and unfiltered lucky strikes.

Who has two thumbs and likes to start her Friday mornings with marijuana, diet coke, and Brian Eno jams?

This girl.

Dear Internet, If we’re going to be friends again, I feel like I have to tell you something.   I love Gossip Girl. The first four seasons are on Netflix.  It’s purely entertaining and pretty, but it packs an insane amount of story into an hour of television.  New York Magazine ran this amazing article called The Genius of Gossip Girl which does a way better job of explaining why the show is brilliant.  I’m very specific about my requirements for 45 minutes of sitting in front of the television - I get antsy about commercials and generally if I’m by myself I’m usually reading a book or using my laptop - and this has just enough to keep me interested and invested without taking anything too seriously.
