today, monday

is the slowest. speedbumps included spicy tacos before 12:30 (lunchtime you were so long ago) and a mass email sent by my mother ridiculing india. who is responsible for generating these terrible emails that get sent to mothers and grandmothers? you know what i mean - emails that accuse obama of being linked to terrorist cells and blaming the recession on clinton and warnings about the temperature of the sun affecting your unmarried grandchild's ovaries. is there a list-serve called "sign up here if you are over 40 and want to irritate everyone that you forward this to" ? if so, please remove my mother. she is already plenty busy with other bizarre list serves, including "if you are over 40 and find 'cathy' jokes about being single and horny or overweight or kitchen-fraught amusing and think pictures of muscled men dressed as angels are sexy / deviant / awesome"

side note, my mom is the best, i just believe in limiting her internet access.


fortunately, tonight is:


graham greene night. look at that old grizzly bear.
