Wednesday Round-Up:
+Now I have my own basil plant, and also my own thyme plant. I haven’t used either of them yet because I want them to come into their own as plants before I tear off their leaves to season my food, even though my mother tells me that the best thing you could do for a basil plant is to cut it, which sounds equally suspect and true to me, like the old saw about how children need structure.
+Sometimes I think blogs are dumb and then don’t write anything for like three months. Oops.
+Today a guy threw his sweatshirt at me, and when I gave it back with a WTF? look, he said, “I’m sorry, I was trying to get your attention. Have a nice day anyway.”
+Now I am a member of 24 Hour Fitness, which, in Austin anyway, has a big fake “Live Strong” bracelet hanging over the front counter.
+Apparently I am just as mean as I feared because I think regretsy.com is really funny.
+Discretion is the better part of aesthetics, fucking trust me.
+The soundtrack to Serpico sounds pretty hot, actually.
+I was just playing; children really do need structure.
+Today after much deliberation I came to the conclusion that I like Rihanna a lot, kind of mostly because she does this really low EHHHN EHHHN UHHHHN thing with her voice that I think is cool.
+Lately a lot people have been asking me for my business card as if it is a totally normal thing for a 26-year-old individual temporarily employed by an annual literary magazine to have a card. Am I missing something? Am I allowed to give out cards that just show a screen shot of google with my name entered into the dialogue box?
+My nails are so long and freaking immaculate now that I am often asked if they are fake. Which makes me proud, so proud. Although the nail on my right middle finger broke off partially when I was re-seasoning my cast iron pan last week.
+Hot tea and bourbon.
