Thesis
What have I done? No blogging unless there is time for blogging. New Rule: NO BLOGGING UNLESS THERE IS TIME FOR BLOGGING. There is not, but I am.
Lucky 1
Avey Tare is releasing a record on the 26th of this month. "Lucky 1" - a single from the record that was released today - is remarkable. Well, it's remarkable in that it sounds exactly like how it should. The nonsense review I linked to (how can one evaluate something released hours ago?) was wrong: this is exactly what Avey Tare would/should/obviously does sound like. I have listened to the song a dozen times now. It doesn't wear itself thin. I'll let that fact speak for itself (or for me, I suppose).
I suppose
That I should definitely be writing a paper right now. Or showering.
I propose
That any efforts made toward accomplishing either of said tasks be recorded as evidence in my consideration for sainthood. Or maybe I'll just tweet about how miserably busy I am. Exactly busy enough to resort to blogging.
Conclusions
> Music is good
> I'm busy
> Procrastination is not good
> Where are my sandals?

Uh Oh, Uh Oh
Thesis
Times are tough. Due to an extended stay in Chicago (the concert was excellent), I was unable to go to work. This would've freed up time to do my reading and work on papers, but other things (food, sleepiness) got in the way. Now, I am blogging in a hopeless effort to strengthen my mental capabilities. The hour will simply not allow it.
Fun
I had lots of it this weekend. Sara, Andrew, and Drew rode in my car to Chicago. Andrew, Will, and Drew rode in my car to Bloomington. Between these rides I saw my lovely friend Hayley - young and silly townie turned film icon at Northwestern - who provided bedding and company and a great reunion.
LEAKS
Sufjan Stevens' The Age Of Adz. I must listen to it. Note - I must also read quite a lot before going to bed. It would seem that time is leaking away.
Conclusions
I suppose I should get back to reading. A Short History Of Women, by Kate Walbert. A noticeable Virginia Woolf influence, which I'm always fond of. It is the third in a row of non-linear, multi-perspective historical family dramas being read for my 21st Century American Fiction class. I wouldn't mind some more variety in the reading. Or at least the sequencing of novels. Who is this guy? And, who am I? A Reader.
