Put some energy into it

A list of things to keep in my head so that I know that the world isn't entirely a sack of fetid shit that drips everywhere from some leak I can't find:

1. Michael bought me an chocolate-dipped ice cream cone with nuts on it while we wandered around Hillside Mall looking for a winter coat for him. We ended up at the Body Shop and found nothing like a coat, but he was hella cute and sweet.
2. Soma FM's Indie-Pop stream is playing Neutral Milk Hotel's "King of Carrot Flowers Part 2."
3. There's a new JT Leroy story in the latest issue of Coppola's Zoetrope All-Story Magazine.
4. I've got a draft of the story done and it makes me want to vomit, but people seem to like my stories when they make me want to vomit, so that's promising.
5. I have a great roommate.
6. Jo, Joy, Matt, and Steff - seeing good friends in the morning when everything else is miserable and my throat is sore? Somehow it takes the edge off things.
7. Dinner plans on Friday with an old friend.
8. That Casey is doing a reading at Mocambopo soon! While I generally dislike the space, I'm pretty proud of Casey for being a featured reader; he's always been so terrified of reading his stuff out.
