So Spring Break, right? It’s Eels, James Brown and On The Beach (thanks, michael) while riding my bike through a neighborhood that I cannot manage to get lost in, despite the fact that I do not know my way around. It’s all a big circle. After many rainy days, OK-two rainy days, and a completed/mailed internship application to Chicago Public Radio and a house to myself I am enjoying time however I want. In the last day I’ve eaten about an entire pound of green grapes. Also, I am on the look out for an inexpensive road bike to purchase. Please keep me informed. Until then, here are things I want to share with you that I’ve stumbled upon.

VICE magazine. I want to work there, maybe. Here we have this. The picture below compliments it well I think.

Also, VICE brings us the latest in butt health.

click the pic for the story

Basically everything YOU are interested in comes from VICE’s latest publication……check her out.

Also, there’s GOOD magazine. Here is an interactive on the two earthquakes that recently quaked Chile and Haiti. And if you are a ‘young adult’ (yes, erica, we are growing up SOMETIME soon…) you might want to move away to explore something new. Four of these cities are in Texas. The only two people I’ve ever met FROM Texas (Austin, that is) are really great, smart people. Don’t write it off. Until then, peruse some internet, ride some bikes and listen to poly-sonic-pleasantness, however you may define it.

i don’t get ben stiller…

But people love giving him press. And people love him! He’s been in movies none of which are my favorite. I’ve always hated Zoolander (no matter what, you cannot convince me.)  Although I do love the Royal Tenenbaums, who doesn’t love Wes Anderson?!

The New York Times is almost-kind-of profiling him because of this new independent movie he made called “Greenberg“. I do not know what it is about. I did see the trailer quite a few months ago on apple trailers. I remember being unimpressed by it. Who knows, maybe we’ll all be surprised?

My spring break is just as great as driving to Miami. I am sitting on my couch listening to ‘From the Beginning’ Wilco. I have five extra days to complete my Chicago Public Radio application. I am reading uncontrollable amounts for class. And it’s rainy, which means lazy schneeging. Tonight my parentals and I are going to see Alice in Wonderland (more to come on that.) All is well here. Plus, how can we top last year’s spring break? I don’t know about ya’ll but I drove from Los Angeles to Vancouver and back last year. If you have the time (and money) go out and do something crazy! If not, enjoy whatever. I’m spending time writing, reading and music dorkin’…so the usual.

having trouble sleeping?

Try this.

Cartoonist Roz Chast has been a staff cartoonist for the New Yorker since 1979. She likes to list things alphabetically to help her fall asleep at night. With all the anecdotes, I’ve never heard of this one. As much as I’d like to try it out, I hope I don’t have to.

movies, photographs

This is really damn cool. Simple, beautiful photographs of performers and stars we’ve loved over and over this year. The Oscars are coming up, with co-hosts (an unusual idea and I think one of the first, or only time they’re doing this) Alec Baldwin and Steve Martin…how can you lose?! Sunday March 7th –next Sunday!!

Check out today’s New York Times Magazine, its the feature.

website love

You should be reading this website, or at least bookmark it or acknowledge it.  It has lots of band’s information and zebra print- two things I can definitely appreciate.
