I have the most amazing job in life.  I work at a video store.  Not just A video store.  THE video store in Charlotte.  Mind you, I could be doing hair and making more money than I would know what to do with, I am working for nothing.  However, I am in the most stress-free and healthy job of my life.  I'm overly thankful.

I don't think I would ( Read more... )

The St. Vincent album may very well be my pick of the '07.  Seeing as how it's quickly coming to a close ( Read more... )

I'm going to see Joanna Newsom on Wednesday. I bought some of the last tickets available for this. It was meant to be. I'm extatic. I haven't been able to take Ys out of my stereo. I also got to see Short Bus. I was in shock. I haven't been hit that hard by a movie since I saw Tarnation. I was getting all misty-eyed at the end. I couldn't ( Read more... )

"until the night is over, hold on hold on: hold your horses back from the fickle dawn. I have got some business out at the edge of town, candy weighing both of my pockets down till I can hardly stay afloat, from the weight of them (and knowing how the commonfolk condemn what it is I do, to you, to keep you warm: Being a woman. Being a woman ( Read more... )

It's raining like Spring here. I'm almost positive that it's global warming. Goddamn Polar Ice Caps. They need to stop threatening and do something already ( Read more... )
