befuddle:

in this cold weather, the windows of my apartment fog up each time i take a shower or wash my dishes.

listening to the new josé gonzález, in our nature. procrastinating to the max.

connections:

this
reminds me of this
which reminds me that i must get away from here soon.

very soon.

lazy monday:

feeling sleepy and bored and lazy. nothing to do, really, until next week, when i will work myself to near-death, writing papers (three!) and studying for final exams. i guess that i could get started now... but that's so unlike me.

this morning i watched amélie (inspired by lauren's feel-better suggestion). now i'm listening to the soundtrack.

and speaking of beautiful things: 3191.

one reason why i shouldn't live alone:

BUGS (or, crawly things in general).

wasp-y things, crickets, silverfish, lizards, especially cockroaches. i'm terrified of them. and just the thought of suffering the presence of any of the above by myself, all alone, is terrible.

luckily, maribelle, being the ferocious little kitten that she is, just saved my life by detecting an enormous cockroach that was crawling on the ceiling next to my bed. the knowledge of its hardiness and dirtiness makes my skin crawl. i'll probably never get back to sleep from the fear of this bully's cockroach friends lurking around somewhere, unseen.

FUCK.

from othello:

"there are many events in the womb of time which will be delivered."

jazz:

lounging and listening to jazz while drinking wine and reading makes me feel better about being nerdy/living alone.

i need to do something creative or outrageous soon, or i might go crazy.

the marfa/west texas road trip was incredible. see pictures here or here, or watch a video here.

any suggestions for the next destination?
