Simon & Garfunkel were probably writing about this place

Sometimes, on Sunday afternoons, it gets so quiet in here the only thing that can be heard is the fizz and pop of the bubbles in the Diet Coke and the ceiling fan. That’s only until the Diet Coke goes flat, then it’s just the ceiling fan and the blood pulsing though my fingers.

It’s awfully quiet here on Sundays.

Personally, i LOVE that kind of silence. Rare and precious in a crazy world. I think i must’ve been a recluse in my last life.

Sometimes I like it, and sometimes it drives me nuts. It all depends on what side of the continental psychotic divide the silence falls.

Because I like a lot of people I haven't met yet including but not limited to: Largehearted Boy, UH, Michelle Obama, Mike Doughty, and everyone who ever appeared on Dawson's Creek. [+]

Can't stop listening to "Who Were You Were Thinking Of" by Jeff Tweedy. Sing it with me, "who were you thinking of when we were making love last night? Was it a good-looking stranger or a close friend of mine. . ." [+]

You would think that if they were getting straight As they'd know the damn difference between loose and lose. GAH! [+]
