i blinked, and then i hadn't posted for a week. and i can't even remember what happened.

first off, let me just say that my sister is generous and hilarious and i'm happy that she is: a) on the charts and b) now the proud owner of wilson -- her new jetta. it's a really nice car, and i know she'll take great care of it and continue to pet it and kiss it and coo to it like a baby chinchilla.

it's been such a whirlwind this month. unlike august, which went on FOREVER, september just happened. in that time, i haven't slept more than 4-6 hours a night and i've been running around like a crazy person. i keep hoping that things will "settle down" but who knows what that looks like? you let me know if you figure that one out. perhaps one just needs to seize the moment and point blank refuse to do anything until you've had a chance to spend some quality time with the wb and a bottle of wine. who knows.

great time in la last weekend. i won't lie -- as a general rule, i look upon anything south of bakersfield to be little more than purgatory posing as a plastic surgery factory. socal folks -- i (don't really) apologize. but when your bz goes down yonder past the coalinga line for school ... los angeles starts to get a slightly rosy hue that's only partially smog-induced. thanks to my bz for showing me his new digs there and taking to me to the ocean, and thanks to josh and naoms for being the funnest couple ever. they are my #1 couple.
