hit list:
1. Flipper's Guitar - Blue Shining Quick Star. This song is on an el compilation I could not resist buying at Other Music on Saturday. I am in love with it. I've listened to it at least fifty times since. Sadly, I cannot find any of their CDs, but now I want to go out and buy Cornelius, although they are totally different.
2. Louis Philippe - My Cheri Amour. Also on the el compilation. Bill Cosby has a co-writing credit on this! at least I think it's him.
3. random Hungarian spottings.
4. stuffed cabbage, yummmmmmm.
5. The Royal Tenenbaums. Definitely a four star movie.
shit list:
1. UPS
2. that guy who has cancelled and rescheduled my interview *3* times. not to mention thought that he missed one when we didn't actually have one because he showed up half an hour late.
3. the weather.
4. sickness.
5. The loud people at The Royal Tenenbaums who got pissed off that we told them to stop yelling in the middle of the movie and then got all their children to sing "ABC" on the way out of the theatre, thus ruining a movie for 500 people because of their pique.

3. "you're so crazy, crazy for me and I know just why, cause I've got something so elusive to the naked eye. Get your elevator off of my ground, floor your elevator...

And I can get behind anything, anything, you tell me to and I believe about anything, anything you say is true. It's in your eyes all the time, it's not hard to find." whatever the hell that song is called. Patrick Pentland = rock god.
