Day: October 29, 2010

The end of the week

Just a quiet day at the office, with not a single subway ride all day.

I’m looking forward to the weekend. I have no specific plans, beyond finishing this short story and mailing it off, running a few errands and mailing off a back issue of Kaleidotrope, and maybe enjoy a good scary movie or two. That, plus some late-night, in-costume capping are about the extent of my Halloween plans.

Still, it’s nice to have the weekend here again. It seems like so long since the last one.

Random 10 10-29

Last week. This week:

  1. “Rape Me” by Nirvana
    My favorite inside source
  2. “Shut Out the Light” by Bruce Springsteen
    Beyond a stretch of Maryland pines there’s a river without a name
  3. “Volcano” by Jimmy Buffett, guessed by Clayton
    Don’t want to land in no Buzzard’s Bay
  4. “Strange Relationship” by Prince
    The more you love me, sugar, the more it makes me mad
  5. “Love Lockdown” by Kanye West
    I’m in love with you but the vibe is wrong
  6. “Shipwrecked” by Chameleon Circuit, more or less guessed by Betty
    If I give some of my life, we’ll use it to escape this place
  7. “Sax Rohmer #1” by the Mountain Goats
    Every moment points towards the aftermath
  8. “Between the Lines” by Sara Bareilles
    No right minds could wrong be this many times
  9. “So Serious” by Electric Light Orchestra
    To be all broken up and delirious
  10. “Jerry Was a Race Car Driver” by Primus
    It stuck in his craw that they made him retire at the age of 65

Good luck!
