Lykke Li - Tonight
I don’t usually want to watch music videos, but I pressed play and couldn’t take my eyes off of this one. It’s an acoustic version of the song, too.

Coffee Shop Observations
I watch a postman smile at a passerby as he enters the coffee shop, takes off his blue coat and gloves, and places his cap on the table adjacent mine, revealing his gray hair and a face that looks eerily like my late grandfather’s who was a florist and used to walk to work every day with lunch pail in hand. He saunters up to the counter below elaborately colored chalk boards and points to one of...

documentary:
The Human Animal is a six part BBC documentary in which world-renowned zoologist Desmond Morris studies humans in the same manner that he would study any other species. The result is a delightful and fascinating portrait of our species across the globe. I guarantee that if you watch the first ten minutes you’ll be hooked.
Part 1: The Language of the Body
Part 2: The Hunting...

Thoughts, 1 PM
As I sit here in this sunny coffee shop with pastel walls, a surprisingly ornate silver ceiling and a topographical floor, a pronounced calm washes over me from this dark velvet roast that I just finished. They tell me I’m not supposed to drink the stuff, because its acidity is no good for my stomach and its caffeine is no good for my anxiety, but sometimes I just don’t care. I used to put...

Thoughts, 6:37am
I’ve never been on a schedule this bad before. Going to bed between 6 and 8 in the morning is whack. I saw less than an hour of sunlight today. But the good news is that this is probably one of the last cycles. My academic life officially starts back up again on Tuesday. So what shall I do my last off day…
My goals for Monday: Pay bills
Read two chapters in my psych book and...

Thoughts at 7:00am
I felt something tonight because of someone that I haven’t felt in a while, that I’ve felt many times in the past with many different people. You’d think that I would’ve learned from all these trial runs, and yet…
I was just reminded how much I’ve changed in one area of my life. It was frighteningly definitive. I was going to tell her something—something that...

I do have morals, I’m just sexual about them.
– Jen.
This could be a very philosophical statement. Replace “sexual” with whatever your passion or vice is, and the result is: paradoxical? clarifying? apathetic? empowering?

Do not dismiss a book until you have written one, and do not dismiss a movie...
– Dave Eggers. (via meaghano)
See the transcript of Dave’s entire rant from which this quote comes here. I love Eggers and I loved his first book. If you like Eggers or sarcasm, you’ll really enjoy this; plus the quote makes a lot more sense if you read it :-P

Thank You.
You’re all pretty great, and I realized today that in all the activity that goes on around these tumblrparts, I don’t always do what I want to do: thank you guys. So,
Thank you to those of you who have read my original writings.
Thank you to everyone who has emailed me. I know I’m terrible at getting back to you in a timely manner sometimes, but that doesn’t mean I...
