how i go to the library
- go through the new releases section. take out nearly every book about farming, but wonder why people are still writing new books about farming. wonder if you and valerie burchby are their target audience.
- search for the same ten books that have been on your list for the last year, but the westerly library ALWAYS HAS TAKEN OUT. literally every time. get really angry about this, then get over it when you realize you are getting these books for free.
- take out a cookbook. later, get mad when said cookbook only has recipes involving meat. don’t i deserve at least a few vegetarian recipes??? i’ll just look online.
- take out at least three books based on the cover alone, of which you will probably only read the first chapter.
- take out a book about some nineties rock star. if no new ones are available, take out the same biography about kurt cobain that i have read six billion times. alternatively, a chuck klosterman book. alternatively, a biography of a drug addict.
- go to the check-out. talk to the same librarian that has been working there since i was three. pay library fees.
- repeat.

I have faith in the fact that no matter what current happening I am intrigued by, Chuck Klosterman will have an articulate and fascinating take on it.
“We are comfortable with the idea that extra-bad people possess something intangible that helps them win football games. There is a long history of this, especially in places like Oakland. But it’s less comfortable to think that extra-good people possess such qualities, because that suggests they’re being helped by virtuous forces outside of corporeal reality. And that’s too much to handle/accept/consider, unless (of course) you already accept that premise unconditionally in every day of your life.”
This is adorable and I want to send it to everyone I know. Because it is cute, not because I’m tryna spoon with all ya’ll.

So many things are when we really take a look; don’t you think?

how to be late for work (part 1)
Spend way too long on the Ben Kweller website, figuring out which concerts you went to off of the extensive list of past shows. Oh, I saw him in Brooklyn on June 30, 2007? That literally has no effect on my life now whatsoever but I just DESPERATELY HAD TO KNOW.
Sometimes Molly Hannon posts things that make me think we are just meant to be. Also, that one time that The Band came on at Margaritas and we both were SO excited.
