This is all too much for me.
I don’t like how this robot says it loves people, I don’t like how it yearns and I certainly don’t like how it uses phrases like “conspire to take over the world” in casual conversation.

From Put This On, about how to dress like a grown up.
From the book Complicated Women* by the great critic Mick LaSalle. Maximum Strenght Mick is LaSalle’s blog.
Both I stuck on the blogroll.
*A good hour long doc on pre-code roles opening up for women. Worth it if you’re into old Hollywood like me.
I would just like to introduce you all to my new kitten. She is possibly the most playful, affectionate (to an absurd degree) and superlative cat in all of Kings County (or at the very least the 94th precinct). She was rescued from what is essentially death row for kitties and, as I type this, she has gone from climbing up my shirt to sitting calmly on my stomach. She seems to be reading what I am typing. I am getting a little self-conscious.
Her name was Alice when we got her and it might stay that way, although we are going to give it a week. She is known as a Hemmingway polydactyl because she has an extra toe on each paw (which makes her slightly more clumsy and more adorable). Apparently Hemmingway wrote about a colony of polydactyl cats once. Anyhow, I just thought she needed to be introduced to the blogosphere. She will soon be a money making youtube hit, I’m sure of it.

This is a good album to listen to with a cold, after working for 8 hours at a retail store and heading straight to Fry’s because you didn’t buy anyone gifts and it’s two days before Christmas and you didn’t have time before because besides that nice trip to L.A., you’ve been working 7 days a week. Yma Sumac has already flipped her lid. She’s nuts, but she’s having fun going mad. She makes a good companion on these trips.
P.S. All better now.
Also, GvB has a live, simplified version of Guys Eyes that really is one of the best songs I’ve heard in a couple years. Even if you’re not the biggest Animal Collective fan, it’s worth a listen(, David).
