The new Radiohead (advanced, stolen mp3 version) is absolutely amazing. It�s reminiscent of older Radiohead, while also expanding its exploratory muscles and reaching out and grabbing me. The hit single, �There, There� is especially good. I could listen to it for hours. It�s actually pretty amazing listening to them on the freeway. I get onto the freeway and begin to drive towards the lines of cars I see all moving faster than I am. �Just �cause you feel it doesn�t mean it�s there...� I push on the gas as I loop around the bend and pull into their lines. Cars change lanes in rhythms. It�s a bizarre ballet.
Midterms this week. One is done. Another needs to be taken. And I need to produce an eight page paper on the origins of WWI. Wish me luck!
I really, really want this new job:

I could do that, I think. It�s the sort of thing that would feel worthwhile too. And above all, I know what it�s like to be �low income.�
