Just sent the dog off to a week at my dad's. It's very quiet around here. But also feels kinda good.
Jesus fuck was it cold yesterday. Today is much more bearable.
Went to a very strange concert last night - a U2 tribute band. I've seen cover bands before but this was the whole shebang - dressed (and looking very much) like the actual band, the guy doing Bono swanning around like he was the real deal. Musically they were excellent, but especially at first, kind of watch from the hall. The guy playing the Edge was an old HS friend of my sister.
Crap. It just occurred to me that I should get a present for a friend whose birthday is today, as she gave me a present for mine. I have no ideas. Ugh.
Yay for msbelle making it back!
Hey, Jesse or msbelle, does the Brooklyn Target deliver your purchases like Ikea/Bloodbath do? I have an urge to visit today.
no idea. The Queens one does not, but you can get a car service there totake you home with all the stuffage.
You mean they make it easy to order a car while you're there?
I'm thinking bamboo plant is a little morbid for a birthday.
I bet they don't deliver, bon. But honestly, unless you're buying furniture, you can really lug a ton of shit on the train if you don't have to go too far on either end, which you won't. Mmm....target.
Jars, I'd like to read that essay of yours. As an anthropologist interested in the development of agrarian societies.
Would this [link] be a tacky bereavement gift?
I think it is lovely. And would personally appreciate it if given at a time like that. It's simple and will continue to live, which I think it is a key message at a time like that.
Waiting to see if Robin gets steam cleaning advice since I should do that to the carpet here.
