This tumblr that asks people wearing headphones what they’re listening to addresses a question I often have while riding the bus in the morning. It would be even more interesting if they guessed first and then asked. I would love to find out that the outdoorsy-looking guy is listening to Josh Groban as he finagles his bike onto the bus rack and that the put-together woman at the front (who is definitely either law or business) is listening to Finnish black metal.

I totally used this piece on Rita Hayworth for procrastination purposes and then didn’t even feel bad because it seemed entirely worthwhile (the Paul Newman one is good too).

Dijon-braised brussel sprouts: could be good? But what about the lack of baaaaacon?

This time of year is always kind of oppressive; I feel like I’m on a zombie-march toward paper due-dates. My cousin Hannah wrote an excellent song, which makes me think there’s hope that a non-zombie-me can emerge on December 14th.

Non-zombie-me wants to be in the holiday spirit and make collage greetings cards from old National Geographic Magazines and Jcrew catalogs and remember how to socialize without resorting to a ceaseless stream of academic gripes. But she’ll have to wait two weeks.
