saturday night was a small explosion in my quiet life. i ventured to the king club to watch DPC (the reigning kings of short attention span, wtf-style blink-and-its-over web cinema; go here and click on Movie of the Week, and make sure to check out the others too), and bumped into quite a few faces i hadn't seen in quite a while. also i was introduced to fran's 38 year old boyfriend who looked like an older jude law with blonde hair and an irish accent. he said he was a hem/onc physician at UIC who did his residency in saskatchewan. fran said she met him while he was on tour promoting his first joke book. honestly, i could see either being a reality, though he did seem to be able to chat knowledgeably enough about the medical school-to-residency process, so, it's kind of a crapshoot. only because this story would be soooo much better if it turns out he's really a joke book author. sunday i spent with my parents, who have spent the past month in antarctica (for serious, i saw pictures) so my dad could run a marathon there (also for serious, it's part of the Seven Continents Club, some running club he's in. he's also in the 50 States Club or whatever), and in south korea, so my dad could run a marathon there (that's two continents off the list. i think all he has left is africa).
why (when?) did myspace get all revived? or has it always been real hott and i just never knew? i feel like it's blowing up again, or at least i'm just paying more attention to it. it's fun adding people i don't know. it's weird when people i don't know add me.
murakami update: making my way through "wind-up bird chronicle." i'm enjoying it, but it hasn't sucked me in with the urgency of "norwegian wood" or "kafka on the shore." yet. (and note to chas: sorry i missed the book club meeting this week, you were probably busy moving, anyway. let's make a raindate).
