I am really into not throwing up.

Ugly Things #36 except for a reviewer who thinks a compilation called Kenya Special featuring a dodgy ratio of Kikuyu rather than Luo benga is Nigerian & Ghanaian Afrobeat. Is that what all African music is these days to some people?

Maynard G. Krebs...the Dobie Gillis show (I was seriously obsessed with this show as a kid. I'd record the show on my Fisher-Price tape recorder, there was no other way to record a show at the time. Then I'd listen to it in bed, over and over until I fell asleep.)
Pining for good teas...want to order Hari Tea

Incense sticks

You know, I'll make fun of hippie incense along with everyone else but I secretly like nag champa.

The stuff I'm buying is £1 for fifty sticks from my local pound shop. The great thing is, whatever it says on the packet you've got no idea what it's going to smell like so it's kind of a Proustian lottery

So far I've smelt 1998 and 2006 and the air around my grandmother's house.

Movies, novels, trying to sleep more and feel more inspired about life

How's the sleeping going? Do you find forcing yourself to go for a coffee and a long walk during the day helps?

MEXICO

I WANT TO KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT IT AND GO THERE ALL THE TIME

YES

quitting writing for free

trying to generally be more positive about my life and concentrate on good things. it's ridiculous, i know, but i've never ever thought to think this way and almost always concentrated on the bad stuff as a sort of coping(?) developing(?) process.

Stevie I highly recommend Tulum as your next Mexico trip, easily do-able from the east coast for three nights or so, you may really dig it and decide to abandon the U.S. ship to live/work there for a while. Unless you really prefer cities (like me); in that case do not live in Tulum. Or anywhere on the Baja peninsula :)

I am excited abt this newly started IT career why bcz both upward AND geographic mobility!!

Tulum is beautiful and I want to go back there for ages
