Where the hell is my iPod?

23 07 2008

Briefly:

  • I’m disgustingly busy. Hence not posting and keeping this one to simple bullets.
  • I started reading Green Hills of Africa. Hoping Hemingway can do for big game hunting what he did for big fish fishing.
  • I went swimming last night in the clouds and dusk. Makes me curse my six days per week in the office when the sun beats all day long. Summer? What?
  • We got a new propane tank. I grilled successfully. This weekend: shellfish.
  • A woman called today to inquire about her daughter’s job application. Sorry, that shit doesn’t fly.
  • I still haven’t seen The Dark Knight
  • I watched The Darjeeling Limited last night. Entertaining, yes, but Mr. Anderson, I don’t think you’ll ever do better than Tenenbaums. And that’s OK.
  • I finished every season of Weeds. Now I have the munchies.

This fulfills my duty to post. Back to writing press releases. This most recent one, by the way, is for A Midsummer Night’s Dream, which the director has set in pre-industrial Germany. If I can make that sounds whimsical, by George, I can do anything.
