So far this week, I have managed to:

1. End a seven-year close friendship on a sour note.

2. Publicly insult someone I’ve known her entire 23-year life, whose family are good friends of mine.

I went home to my adorable girlfriend.

Thanks for reminding me about this guy, Nick. Love his stuff.

I’m all zingy, zappy, and fizzy. I think I’ll be reading late into the night.

Blueberries in nonfat yogurt make me happy.

Question of the day, following a discussion at D’s about childhood reading: What book or books in childhood did you particularly love? Which one or ones did you reread multiple times? Which one would you go back and read now, as an adult?

Live from the 19th street Borders:

1. “the complete idiots guide to tantric sex”

2. “become an energy addict”

3. “intellectual foreplay”

4. “alive and well with Uranus”

5. “modern magick”
