my fire isn't lit like that

I'm putting aside the naomi wolf book which isn't essays but really an honest to god handbook which...that's fine, but my fire isn't lit like that right now.
So i'm embarking on infinite jest again.
in the past i've barely made it past the possible seizure opening which when i tried to read it the first time was a little close to other stuff happening in my life but that seems to be better i think so onward i go! i have three years.
npr sends me updates of new music to my email box which is generally stuff i like...there was an article or essay three or so years ago about npr jazz on the way out and indie rock on the way in in segments.
today it's both- andrew bird's new record which sounds lovely and the 'deluxe' packaging of the new record includes an instrumental record of him and glen kotche and a third guy i'm not well versed enough to know on bass.
but the prospect of andrew bird and glen kotche together sounds pretty heavenly, right?
today i'm going over to tina's to play with her kids for a bit and we're going to make toys out of a sweater. Tina's husband went into the hospital with heart failure on christmas but he's out now. they live in a cool apartment building across from a cool park. some days i think i would like to live there.
i also have to drop stuff off at pyramid atlantic and pick up milk and grape juice for them.

at the rock and shop a few weeks ago, i saw a girl who bought an owl of mine at silver spring. she was really nice and emailed a few times after that. Also at rock and shop, I saw someone selling owls (and bats!) suspiciously like mine....but I didn't see who it was until yesterday i saw on a third party person's blog that it was the same girl!
i was (am)more than a little irked. I was wondering why she didn't come over and say hello at rock and shop. grr.
Mine are better. Sorry, but it's true.
This will just make me be even better.
