What peaches and what penumbras! Whole families shopping at night! Aisles full of husbands! Wives in the avocados, babies in the tomatoes!—and you, Garcia Lorca, what were you doing down by the watermelons? —Allen Ginsberg, “A Supermarket in California’

I’m watching the second epsiode of Dawson’s Creek where they go to a school dance, and the music being played at the function is fabulous. I refuse to be sucked into Dawson or Joey’s angst and instead opt to enjoy the happy-go-luckiness of Savage Garden’s “I Want You” and Gina G.’s “Just a Little Bit.”

I must get my haircut soon, and I do not know how to cut it. Asking people for their opinions didn’t prove to be too helpful, because different people want me to do to different things. It’s not like I’m going to get a lot cut off and my hair does grow fast, so I should just shut up and pick something.

daslava: I need good music recommendations.  I got a lot of iTunes gift cards for Christmas and I just don’t know what to download.  So far I’ve gotten the most recent Kings of Leon and MGMT albums.  Suggest something to me.  Anything.  I have a pretty wide range of musical tastes. I just helped out another person with this yesterday, so I’ll tell you what I told her: I recommend that since...

Zooey Deschanel Engaged To Death Cab For Cutie's... →
Not to AFI bassist Hunter Burgan like a bunch of outlets were reporting. I always loved her best with Jason Schwartzman, but I’ll get over it as long as he doesn’t go back to Kirsten Dunst.

I’m spending my Sunday night feeding Lucy chicken teriyaki for dinner and Tostitos for dessert. She’s in heat and doesn’t feel well, and all she wants to do is lay around and eat. It’s funny how much dogs are like humans.

Christ, what I wouldn’t give to live through an era where pop music, youth culture, social change and some intelligent ideals went arm in arm, tongue on tongue together. Did one ever exist? Can I create one? Do I need anything more than energy and a photocopier? Enough rambling. I want to create a band that people will be sorry to miss, and obliged to adore. The Smiths had a special power....

Anousha and my cousin Sara came up to Glendale to spend a couple days here, since Sara is on break from school. We are going to Orange County today to celebrate Christmas with some family, so that should be a pretty good time. I won’t be around the internet for the next few more days, because I will be busy with my cousins, playing the amazing Buzz! Quiz TV game I picked out Sara for...
