last day!

So this is my first last day of this internship, and, as is usual with all of my 'last days,' it's pretty anticlimactic. The weather is actually grey here for the first time in over two weeks...but I'm going to the Sunshine State (the land of the hanging-chads) in about an hour.

This morning I spoke more spanish than I have in about 4 years, and I was quie surprised at how much I actually remembered.

A bunch of music year-end lists are coming out, but I don't know which one I like best--I guess Pitchfork's list is by default, but Stylus' slowly-unfurling tops of 2004 is pretty damn good, too.

Does anyone want to review my resume? ;) Last week my Dad's friend Chris Simms from London was in NO on business, and he was dead earnest about me sending him my CV, so I have to do that enmediamente. A few observations from that evening: he had this 21-year-old associate broker along with him, her name was Jemma, and british lilts make me RANDY. Shiiiiit.

I saw Finding Neverland last night; it's a pretty fantastic movie, and a little darker than I expected, but I say goddamn! about Johnny Depp. The man's fucking amazing.

I bought A.C. Newman's CD The Slow Wonder last night (can anyone say powerpop?), in addition to a book of John Dewey essays called The Public & Its Problems, which is gonna be golden if I can ever finish Philosophy and the Mirror of Nature.

Sam, my phone absolutely suxxx, so true. I really did spike it on the floor of my dad's car, and it probably did more harm than good, but so it goes...

Anywho, I gotta do a few last cosas antes de I fly away for a week. Holler back!
