Ladylove

Electric Daisy Carnival-hopeful Nigel dances to Daft Punk while rainbows come shooting out of his crotch. I've watched this video three times already today.

Ladies who play high school sports get better grades, hold more promising careers and stay healthier longer. Huh. So you're saying that if I'd stuck with tennis I might not be working for the Census right now and panting after I climb just three flights of stairs? Well, shit.

Another blow to my overall well-being: all that time I spent reading Cormac McCarthy.
 
Gotta change it up, you guys. Doris Lessing knows what I'm talking about -- "There is only one way to read, which is to browse in libraries and bookshops, picking up books that attract you, reading only those, dropping them when they bore you, skipping the parts that drag-and never, never reading anything because you feel you ought or because it is part of a trend or a movement. Remember that the book which bores you when you are twenty or thirty will open doors for you when you are forty or fifty — and vice versa. Don’t read a book out of its right time for you."
