if you think you’re having a bad day, i had to pick up my cat’s ashes this afternoon. going to hide now.
Various - Hitman Volume 1 (CD, Comp) at Discogs →
Completely random this popped up in a search query. I did at least a dozen (if not more) of these when I lived in Israel - there was no singles market, and so it was the only country in the world that still wanted to buy compliations (and if you didn’t put a popular song on one, the pirates would).
This one, of course, had the most hideous cover.
filming for “fringe” outside my window last night until well after 4am. including screechy car getaway scene. FAIL.

“ladies and gentleman, the fabulous stains” is on TCM this weekend!
movie production cars driving both ways up and down a 1-way street. going to be a long night. i wonder if they are filming a police chase?
i cannot tell you how much i regret having had a site built in expression engine. I cannot do ANYTHING myself. want to port it to WP.
if you know anyone who could AFFORDABLY port an expression engine site to Wordpress, DM me. thank you.
why is there no late night cupcake establishment?
i just learned that philly has a cupcake delivery establishment that is open until 3am.. but no such place in nyc. how is this possible?
“fringe” is shooting in the hood, boston police cruisers lined up in front of my house. going to take photos tonight!
today: am writing, oasis, artisinal, the strand. now home and settling on couch with cashmere throw and books and tea.

today = not good. tomorrow = will be better.

the springsteen super bowl press conference →
seriously, highest of high comedy.
my review of the new springsteen: http://tinyurl.com/aqccjl
another evening at AS THE SOUP KITCHEN TURNS. i still feel better the nights i go and work, even with the drama.
i hate my phone with a passion, but my contract is not up until june. grinning and bearing it.
i am quoted in Sports Illustrated today, about Springsteen playing the Super Bowl, by a writer I greatly admire: http://is.gd/hy2b
i love the days when a writer you completely admire writes to thank you for YOUR help. *glowing*
i [heart] @monsterattack. what a way to get cheered up.

RT @photojojo: Amazon.com’s got Lightroom2 (windows & mac) for over $100 off today! http://is.gd/hsdq
unfollowed @traderjoes because they didn’t RT my post which was questioning of their (lack of) twitter strategy. they can do better.
helping a friend out: bloggers, what is your #1 pet peeve when being pitched for a story? mine: pretending that you read me regularly.
RIP John Updike. and this, my friends, is why i use twitter. i’d never have found out until later tonight.
Buddy Holly: The tour from hell →
am seriously disappointed by @arethas_hat. sob
THE WORLD IS ENDING. BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN IS PLAYING GOD SAVE THE QUEEN. why didn’t this happen 20 years ago??
now he’s playing Tupac. 90% of E Street Nation are having heart attacks and falling over due to their perception of blasphemy. go bruce
OKAY. springsteen dj’ing playing f’ing RANK AND FILE on Sirius. holy CRAP, blast from my past. and then: oh, yeah. alejandro.
Dont believe me? Now listening to horrid cover of venus in furs.
On m train next to pierced-nose hipster chick with headphones whose lack of quality is forcing me to listen as well
you know, bruce, if you want ppl to come to your shows, try playing weekends. 40+ yr old ppl have to go to work the next day.
and for that matter, 20+ yr old ppl have to go to school the next day. and all of us are broke right now and queen of the supermarket sucks.
the day has, so far, been better than anticipated, but not as good as it could be. for that i am thankful. #gratitude
really wish @traderjoes was more than them just RT everyone who mentions them. not interesting.
bruce, you really didn’t just compare “outlaw pete” to “jungleland,” now did you? you should go post on BTX.
dammit i am not getting cupcakes delivered tonight because the boyfriend is coming home too late.
not leaving the house. need to give myself the much needed time to mourn my loss & process. need to not feel guilty about not working.
