Yeah, I'm blogging again, what?

So, it was Valentines day yesterday. Emily's not a big fan of the day, so I got her stuff the day before. I tried to get the most un-valentine's day stuff I could find. I got her a sketch pad and fine art pencils, the Lady Gaga record, sour skittles, and I made a card with a dinosaur on it. Then we watched WHIP IT, which by the way is really good. Drew Barrymore's not a bad director. Not bad at all. I recommend. Then the next day we chilled and watch the some flicks, some Olympics, and some Wire. Disk 3 here we come!

OH my God, there are these fucking commercials playing all the time on TV here. They are for Values.com. The commercials are awful. Even worse than those terrible KAY jewelers commercials. So bad. Ian I am reminded of your essay on commercial narratives. I never read it, but I remember you talked about it in class. But these are just trite, contrived narratives that are so heavy handed and sentimental, I want to scream at the TV. i think a church is behind this. but I really don't want to investigate, because I just don't. I just want the commercials to stop.

Almost read the whole The Book of Whispering in the Projection Booth by Joshua Marie Wilkinson. I recommend, as always.

Later,

Joshua
