– Rick Zelle, my old piano teacher, in an email he sent me.
"It suits you."
I have three candles burning to my right. One smells like cinnamon, another like vanilla and another that smells like some mysterious, musky scent—a candle Brenda picked up at a garage sale, smelled, gagged and handed to me saying, “this suits you.” Every now and then I hear a crackling coming from the candles as though I’ve got some roaring fire going over there.

Chuckie: Happy birthday.”

This I really, truly love. I was watching this with one of my friends some time back and when these two characters said this to each other my friend turned to me and said, “it’s like us.” Maybe it was Maddie, but I can’t remember.
I love the Boston accent.

Gets me every time! What a fabulously written scene. And by that I mean not. God, I love it. “Bro.”
I was hanging out with my friend Erika and then she threw up on my couch. Not because she had been drinking or anything, but just because she felt sick. Throw up on couch: party over.
“Woo, oh baby, shake them cans!”

Purchase of the day:
A new digital camera: Olympus Stylus 1010 with 10 megapixels and a 7x optical zoom. And the lady wears black.
Also, I think I know what I want to get myself for Christmas: Heavier Than Heaven, by Charles R. Cross. Call me “gay,” or what-have-you, but I will read that and cart it around with me like no one’s business.

I just had a really cool and equally sad experience. I hung out with my friend Dan from work. It was the first time we hung out outside of work. We sat around and listened to music and talked about how we both planned on moving to Seattle after finishing our undergrad degrees. He wants to go there for law school and I want to go there for playwriting. He made a CD for me, so we listened to that...

It, That, Talking at
Me: Oh my gosh, you should so be there when it happens!
Ari: What? How did I get dragged into this?
Me: Because I feel that you would be good at talking to Pat in that situation.
Ari: Whenever I talk to Pat I feel like I'm talking AT him.
Me: That's because you usually are talking at him. Sometimes he'll say something, but usually it's just that.
