Posting has been a little intermittent lately. It's hard to sit at a computer when there are piles of nice, thick unread magazines awaiting me. How do I really feel about the redesigned Fast Company? Will there be anything useful in all 700 pages of Vogue? Can yoga make me fit? These questions and more wait to be answered. Meanwhile:

Yesterday the Cath Carroll song "Moves Like You" on the latest Darla comp made me incredibly happy. Yet another item for the wish list.

I haven't read this book, and probably won't, but this review of How to Lose Friends and Alienate People was pretty entertaining.

Why is it that riding a packed train home, no one ever gets off at stops for those "popular" neighborhoods like Southport and Paulina? If that area's so crowded, where are all the people? Are they not riding the train? Why live so close to the el if you're not going to ride it? Or are they so sated with Starbucks that they just don't go to work any more?

These things bother me.

Sheer nostalgia, but I always did like Unrest.
