You saw me standing alone
If you miss seeing the blue moon tonight, it’s okay. You can just catch the next one in August 2012 (assuming, you know, the Maya were wrong, and we’re all still alive to enjoy it).

Home sweet fucking home
Vermonters have the Vermonter; New York has the fucking oven-stuffer roaster. I think I lost 5 lbs. just sitting on that overheated—though otherwise glamorous—train down from Boston. It’s a shame about the heat. The heat makes me lose my mind a little bit. Unfortunately, I suspect it’s that bit that prevents me from jumping the seat in front of me and somehow managing to...
