I can't shut up, and I know it. You know it. But really, I do want to take a short break from posting inane shit. I just wanted to say two quick things.
1. If you want a really excellent resource for all the free shows and parties during SXSW next week, please visit Dan's comprehensive and meticulously compiled Showlist. I plan on hitting a few things in the afternoons--I really, really want to see Calexico--but I have to say it's extremely painful to tear yourself away from free beer, bands, and food on a gorgeous afternoon just to go to stupid work.
2. My boyfriend is really fun to watch television with. We were flipping around and saw the end of a commercial for a light-up magnifying contraption called the Owl.
Dorky, earnest man on TV: And with the Owl, I don't worry about people making fun of me for my poor eyesight...
Eric: Haha! Fuckin' blind-o!
Oh, my.
I'm going to take an Ambien now, and that should shut me up but good. Back on Monday, for real this time, unless something really amazing happens. You never know.
