in the last week:
i found part of a black cat's tail while walking the dog. i carried it with me in a plastic bag for awhile, thinking i would do something (?) with it, but then EVERY CAT we saw was black after that, so i threw it away.
school started. the viewing list for my american musicals class includes hedwig and the angry inch and the rocky horror picture show! it also means i have to watch singin' in the rain for yet another class.
we watched two movies on my list (from the new york times' 1000 best movies): sugarland express and straw dogs. i recommend them, but the latter not before bed.

like airplane! but not funny
1. please go to andrew sloan's listening party featuring the new of montreal album, skull lamping. it's at someday lounge, monday the 8th. i'm going to add a link to his blog today so you can read all about it. you! must! support!
2. i've seen two movies in the past week that i can't get out of my head and i think everyone should see them in this order: rent the sweet hereafter, and then go directly to the theater afterwards and watch vicky cristina barcelona. that way you have contrast. snow vs. sun, incestuous vs. polyamorous, etc. they will balance in your system like a good salad dressing on your tongue.
3. a guy died at my gym two days ago. he was thirty-five and had a heart attack while he was playing basketball. life is brutal and beautiful and i hope i don't die in a gymnasium.
4. k. and i are going to massachusetts for a week starting wednesday, so while the rest of portland is seeing del the funky homosapien and cool kids (!) i am going to be eating lobster rolls and watching the red sox play at fenway park. pray for sun.
