brief update: meeting your needs
So yes, I'm aware that it's not February, and that I've thus had a misleadingly titled entry up here for the past month. I'd like to be updating this more than once a month, really I would, but I seem to be having some difficulties with that lately.
So until I can offer a real entry, I thought I'd offer some various and sundry assistance.
Are you in need of interesting reading material on a range of random topics?
I've been loving Malcolm Gladwell's archive of articles. Some favorite topics include ketchup, faces, and birth control pills, but they're all good. Malls! Ron Popeil! The Chicago Heat Wave! Seriously, this web site has provided me with hours of delight.
So maybe you want to leave the house for your entertainment?
If you're in Philly, you're in luck, because the Film Festival is nearly upon us. I LOVE the Film Festival. I particularly love Travis Crawford's taste in movies; just about anything he reviews, I want to see.
Okay, then, do you like pancakes?
Because again, if you're in Philly, you have access to THE BEST PANCAKES IN THE WORLD EVER and you should really try them. They're at the Dutch Eating Place at Reading Terminal and I'm drooling on myself just thinking about them. I'm telling you, I'm a pancake connoisseur, trust me: Best. Pancakes. Ever.
Let's say you want cute new shoes to wear while you're watching movies or surfing the internet or eating pancakes or doing whatever it is you do.
Camper's new Spring/Summer line is out. I'm wearing the Penelope in white/teal to my wedding this summer.
All right, one more: if you're in need of someone to talk to about Sassy magazine, get in touch. I've been having a confluence of Sassy-related interactions lately, and I really enjoy it.
If you have other needs, let me know. I'll see if I've got any advice.
Later gators.

have you considered the mythological implications of your footwear choice? i was just thinking that penelope's quite the poster girl for a solid marriage. sort of troubled a little in the middle, but really, how likeley is another trojan war?

Ooh! I hadn't considered. Y'know, I'd be totally into fashioning my bed from a living tree, now that you mention it.

hmmm. the bed thing: awesome, but you might have to wait til your next house. are there actually trees in s.philly (she (almost) kids)?

heh. not enough of them, that's for sure. but they're starting to bloom, so i've been noticing they do in fact exist.

it's wrong and curmudgeonly, i know this, but i'm resenting spring because of what i know comes afterwards. i'm already spending most of my 20min walk to work HATING. SUMMER. i'm not sure i can even get behind the pretty pretty blooming of s.philly trees. humidity can suck me.
