I feel better!

I worked so hard today that I think my cold germs got bored and decided to skip town. As of right this moment, having just arrived home from work, I officially feel better. I plan on celebrating with Macaroni and Cheese and some Mary Gaitskill. Yee! Don’t ever let it be said that I don’t know how to party.

Things I Want to Tell You

Bob Longmore from How Was The Show, proves my theory that The Hold Steady/Drive-by Truckers show was fucking magic. [+]

Google suggesting the correct spelling of your name has got to be a sign of some sort of success, right? [+]

"I want to stand as close to the edge as I can without going over. Out on the edge you see all the kinds of things you can't see from the center."

"What should young people do with their lives today? Many things, obviously. But the most daring thing is to create stable communities in which the terrible disease of loneliness can be cured."
-- Kurt Vonnegut, Jr., November 11, 1922 – April 11, 2007 [+]

50 years of popular songs condensed into single sentences. My favorite: Frank Sinatra, "Strangers in the Night" -- I'm drunk and I want to do it with you. {via} [+]
