In my day-planner under goals:
1. Blog more.
2. Sleep more.
3. Read more.
One is conveniently being fulfilled with this (cough cop-out cough) list.
Two also happens to be the number of jobs I have. Extra sleep is not possible.
Three. Chuck Klosterman's Killing Yourself To Live has been keeping my attention for a week.
The fall television season is upon us. I go through phases with my tv viewing habits. The invasion of bittorrents has increased the number of shows I watch but allows me to watch on my own time. (I do not have cable or Tivo. I only recently purchased a dvd/vcr combo device for my 12" screen.)
Very little about the new season interests me. "Veronica Mars" and "Battlestar Galactica" are the only must sees for me.
"Weeds" on Showtime with Mary Louise Parker premiered several weeks ago and has managed to keep me interested. Every thing Parker does is usually pretty good. If you haven't seen "Angels In America" add it to the top of your Netflix queue.
Over the past week, I have been entranced by season one (via bittorrent) of "House, M.D." A special division of a teaching hospital led by miserable, yet brilliant Dr. House takes on a rare medical case of the week while dealing with the oddities of his team--three damaged doctors too young and pretty to actually be a part of this special medical team. Season two premieres this Tuesday on FOX.
On my calendar for the week is the aforementioned Arcade Fire/Wolf Parade double header on Sunday.
A longer post than I anticipated. Helium's Dirt Of Luck has been in pretty heavy rotation in my head lately. "Oh the wind and rain" was the song of the day yesterday.
