Making:<\/u> A third sock <\/strong>in the pair I’ve been making since Rhinebeck, good lord I am fucking slow. Ugh. I was completely done with #1 (ends woven in and everything) and up to the toe on #2 when I decided they were just too damn snug. Started over… Now about to start the heel on “#3” although obviously #s 1 and 2 do not exist anymore… And the only quilting I’ve done is vicariously through Jackie as I gave her direction at the sweatshop this weekend…<\/p>\n

Reading:<\/u> “The Guermantes Way” by Marcel Proust<\/strong>, a.k.a. book 3 of \u00c0 La Recherche du Temps Perdu<\/em>. I read book one in 2005 and book two in 2006…so at this rate, I’ll finish the series in 2010. Pathetic! The problem being, as with everything in my life, there’s just tooooo many things (or “other books”) I am interested in so I have to spread the GR love around… Anyway, as to Proust, Marcel is soooo neurotic and really isn’t that why these books became such classics? Because he’s the worst things about yourself that you would never tell anyone about? Unless you’re completely narcissistic and have an entire web site devoted to detailing your idiosyncracies…. Oh, hmmm, wait a second…. (Hahahahaha)<\/p>\n

Watching:<\/u> Friday Night Lights<\/strong>. And obsessively so. Watching it when it’s on (on Wednesdays), at random times throughout the week on the DVR in the living room, on the TiVO in the bedroom, on NBC.com, on my iPod…. Whenever, wherever. (Again, pathetic.) Also rewatching Tristan & Isolde<\/strong>, which is NOT a good movie, but James Franco is all sullen and miserable and HOT in it so there you go. Btw, my dad says “Blood Diamond<\/strong>” is really good so I may have to suck it up and go see it, even though it wasn’t really on my list… As of now, that’s my movie plan for the week. At the sweatshop this weekend, Jackie and I rewatched some old Party of Five…only to see Milton! from OfficeSpace! playing Bailey’s football coach<\/a>. How nuts is that!!! (Also (re)watched Almost Famous, Singles, Garden State, last week’s OC, this week’s Brothers & Sisters, and a few episodes of Sex&theCity.)<\/p>\n

Listening:<\/u> The new Fallout Boy “Infinity on High” <\/strong>, which I really like. Also two albums by The Essex Green (“Cannibal Sea” and “The Long Goodbye”) <\/strong>that I picked up at the concert. And still listening to everything I bought in January….<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
