This & That

+A reminder that I am not at Comic Con. To celebrate (aka mourn) this I am live-tweeting all the inane things I am doing today. For example, right now it's fucking freezing in my office, which leads me to believe they keep our offices especially cold only to make it impossible to be comfortable and/or fall asleep. Maybe not. I don't really know.

+I rediscovered tumblr last night. As well as my old tumblr that I started posting to (after first deleting some hilariously old post from like two years ago). Not really sure if it's going to be of any interest to me/anyone, but I view that social media site as more of a platform for personal expression. Or those dumb "F Yeah [insert relative pop culture name/term here]" blogs. Right now, all I've posted are quotes I like and some photos I took. And like a song lyric or two. So yeah, it's essentially my diary ten years later.

+Seriously, it's fucking freezing in here!

This & That

+I saw Inception last night. You must see it. Then you must read my friend Adam's brilliantly written interpretation of the film. Then you must talk to me about it. Seriously.

+Another film you must see is The Kids Are All Right. God it's nice being able to recommend movies again - I feel like it's just been a whole lot of crappy franchise movies in theaters recently.

+Now streaming: Amanda Palmer Performs The Popular Hits Of Radiohead On Her Magical Ukulele - beautiful and a must for any Radiohead fan.

+In other music news: if you're in LA this week, check out Jesse Woods at Spaceland tomorrow, Wednesday, July 21st. He's a Texas native building a pretty big following and is touring with another relatively well know Texas indie favourite called Sunset. The tour is also in support of Jesse's new EP "Moon Rocks." Check out Jesse here.

+In TV: Things have been somewhat quieter in the TV world right now, with it being summer and all. I just caught up on the show Parenthood, which I'd abandoned this past Spring after about three episodes. So glad I gave it another shot, and I recommend you do too - the entire first season is streaming at Hulu.
