a few recommendations

...to make up for a lack of news.

Saved!: Despite rotten reviews, I really loved this movie. Even Macaulay Culkin. Especially Macaulay Culkin. That's saying something.

Mighty Goods: A shopping blog from the witty mind behind Mightygirl. I want it all. Gift-givers, take note.

Online-boggle: (via bluishorange) expanding my 3-letter word vocabulary since September, 2004.

Another Bullshit Night in Suck City, by Nick Flynn: I could have bought it (and had it signed!) at Brazos Bookstore, but I thought, "nahh... I'll wait for it to come out in paperback." Days later, I couldn't get certain lines out of my head, especially the chapter "Same Again" which I heard in draft form at UMD three years ago. Halfway through.
