woe is me wednesday

i’ve decided that wednesdays are the day i can spend wallowing in self-pity. wednesdays generally kick my ass. on wednesdays i inevitably feel as though i cease to matter. that i am only valuable in so far as i give people what they need or want. wednesdays are not about me at all, in the least. wednesdays i am a robot dispensing advice, words, caring to those who need it, though on wednesdays is when i need it most. on wednesdays i need to be reminded that i do matter and i am important even when i’m not giving everyone what they want. on wednesdays it’d be nice to be reminded that i am more than the copywhore or the mirror with adoration colored eyes. on wednesdays i go to bed and wish desperately for thursday to come quickly.

I am celebrating my independence by sitting around in my pajamas until noon. [+]

The only thing the Slate piece on overused catchphrases is missing is how we really, really need to ditch douche. [+]

The best line I've read all damn day: "you can see from these photos that i was dressing like the secretary of the indigo girl's fan club, but not living the part." [+]

Joe Henry in the LA Times on Music's Literary Side. It's really good until he mentions Alice Munro (barf). [+]

You should go listen to this NPR interview with Liz Phair on the 15th Anniversary of Exile in Guyville. Go listen, now. Seriously. Go. She talks about the whole Exile on Mainstreet/Guyville thing. It's fascinating. [+]

Could The Deets be any cuter? No, no he couldn't be. [+]
