Some guy projectile vomited watery chunks on a suit on the F train today; the suit didn’t even notice.
Taking my work iTunes for a spin. So much junk, it’s kinda like looking for precious gems at the Herkimer Diamond mine in CNY, all the good stuff is already gone (whisked away on a thumb drive) or picked over.
I can’t get enough of R.E.M. lately.
I’m so tired of the two dudes that unpack refrigerator boxes in between 2nd and 1st on Ave A. Every morning they ogle and irritate.
What was the power my lace tights had today? If only I could bottle it.
It’s a free world, baby.
Hypocrisy has been described alongside lack of sincerity, as a characteristic which attracts particular opprobrium in the modern age.
Village Halloween parade tomorrow.
Me, I’m tired of this candy.

Where are they getting the electricity for amps? Who cares, I love the bridge in “CrushCrushCrush,” Paramore’s new single.

I am the one-armed woman today, my limb is dead. Yesterday’s flu shot was to avoid a 500 clam health insurance deductible. It’s weird to intentionally inject yourself with a disease. I hope it wasn’t the superbug.
Needles around the office sent everyone in some sort of small emotional tizzy, it was really rather amusing. NYCish hijinks (both funny and disturbing) were in full effect. Battle wound to the right.
In other news, ever since I stopped reading Love is a Mix Tape 35 pages from the end (so it never would), I’ve been hollering about the greatness of Rob Sheffield. Most of you are already aware as I’ve been a one woman street team for months - just try not to connect to Rob’s impressionistic description of love, loss, honesty, Catholic guilt, and of course, music. But you don’t have to take MY word for it…
Hark! RS readers asked our boy questions, and now he responds - read Rob’s classic Metallica burn, sitcom analysis, Poughkeepsie burrito joint soundtrack, greatest live shows from this year, and the high point of each.

It’s like fall sweeps, except real life. Dance it out people!

This week Owen (with the hot new haircut) gifted me German indie band, The Notwist. Um, where the hell have I been? Hot pops, flush hook, great words. So good, so good. Try “One With The Freaks” -

The fires in SoCal are so horrible. I’ve spent the day helping to get our plan together to help victims. Can’t turn off the news, the images are incredible. As a former news reporter, I can see zillions of story angles. All I can say is a firenado is scarier than a tornado, and a tornado is freaking terrifying.
