friday-things that puzzle me
the popularity of music by the pussycat dolls
the cabaret act, i get - i enjoy that somewhere out there burlesque lives. they were fun in the charlie's angels movie
but they can't sing. why do people buy music by pretty people who can't sing?
here are some pretty people who can sing

thursday-things that i need
- about four more hours of sleep
- a few days of perfectly clear skin before the wrinkles start in earnest
- for my cat to be slightly less psychotic
- for my cat to turn into a dog
here's a picture of my non-dog
don't let that innocent expression fool you - she's evil
ps-she's also orange (expect to see her again in a week when i haven't taken any other interesting pictures)

eureka!
the song that i had stuck in my head last week is get him back, by fiona apple.
odd, because i don’t actually listen to ms. apple.

this gem was scrawled (at least, as of a week or so ago) on the wall of the john w weeks bridge, near a campus that begins with an h and ends with an arvard. glad someone's putting all that education to good use

monday-things that please me
french fries - i gave them up for lent, and they're even better after 40 days without
ada limón - now i am not a poet, and despite being married to a poet, i do not enjoy that much poetry. this woman is amazing. buy her book. read her website. give her prizes. buy her flowers.
(disclosure: i do not know madame, though i think we have a mutual acquaintance)

thursday-things that i need
[closed circuit entry for jack, who thinks i should have a blog that only he can read:
- to never again hear sws say the word foreplay in class, or indeed ever
- for you to repeat "i will not date druggies who are bad for me" until it sinks in. my friends made me do this in college. it is more effective then you think it will be]
for my other four readers:
- for apple to send me a new battery for my ipod, which now will not last for both the train ride to and from work
- for a team of gnomes to clean my house before my mother arrives tomorrow. here's a site on gnomes, here's one on adopting garden gnomes, and here's one trying to free the garden gnomes. enjoy.

tuesday-things that displease me
cole slaw - most vile disgusting food on the planet.
now, i know what you're saying. i just haven't had the right cole slaw. but my grandmother made, according to everyone who ever had it, the world's best cole slaw, and i hated that too.
but strangely, i like sauerkraut. go figure.

friday-things that puzzle me
how that chick from the view can ever replace my katie. ms. couric, i don't get home in time to watch the evening news. and i don't know if my love for matt lauer is enough to get me through. why didn't they give the job to that lovely ann curry?
okay, obviously i care too much about a program that i complain about incessantly, but i get to watch so little tv. why take away the only thing i have?
also, i have a song stuck in my head and i have no idea what it is. it sounds vaugely like glad to have a friend like you, but it's a pop song. come, on you, the four people who read this. help me out!
