tunage

This morning I danced around my bedroom listening to "Blister in the Sun" on the radio. If they had "China Boys" I would have lost my mind. But that is the joy of downloading, and now I can shake my ass despite the lack of payola putting the Payola$ on the radio right when I want it most. "Roll out red carpets..."

I loaded some new wallpaper on my computer, a print of a crow from pushmepullyou designs. Eleanor is extremely nice (we had a couple of lovely chats at Bumbershoot and passed emails back and forth) and I love her stuff. Seriously, go see her new designs for Keds. Raccoons! Black cats! And, despite my previous declarations that I fear crows, I really like this one. It's just the ones that dive-bomb me hoping to tap into my delicious occular juices that worry me.

The party shuffle lineup right now is freakishly appropriate. "Two Places at Once" by Kleenex Girl Wonder, "I Don't Want to Get Over You" by Magnetic Fields, "I Give Up Too" by Club 8, "Cut" by the Shapiros, and "Santaland Diaries - 02" by David Sedaris. How does it know?

The David Sedaris part is the part when he talks about applying to be an elf at Macy's, featuring one of my favourite lines ever: "I'm certain that I failed my drug test. My urine had roaches and stems floating in it, but still they hired me." Not that this pertains directly to my current state, but in two sleeps I will see David Sedaris LIVE! IN PERSON! If I had a Stadium Buddy I would use it right now. Gosh, I love that little OCD, chain-smoking gay man. It's the highlight of my week.

I think I should bring my bike inside. I don't want the weather to start eroding its sleek design and brilliant colour scheme.

Onward to see what the day brings.
