Love them

For some reason, this isn't allowing me to post videos, so there is the link. It has been too cold lately, I hear it is supposed to snow (...again) tomorrow. Have reverted back to my old insomniac self, unfortunately I left the melatonin back at the apartment with my phone charger but I guess that was inevitable considering I had to leave again after (what, three, four hours of sleep at most on) New Year's day. I have been reasonably productive lately, lots of writing and reading and seeing things and seeing people and sitting on my roof staring at the stars. Just the way I like it. That being said, I am ready to go back. Almost.

This week should be a drunken blur:
back to White Plainsss
Steve & Brian reunion of epic proportions
Oli's birthday/barhopping in city extravaganza
Angel's birthday
President Berman's (Manhattanville's former president, gotta love him) huge party in the new building. That guy from Gym Class Heroes or something is djing, but more importantly there will be an open bar!!! Thanks, Manhattanville, you are clearly a superior establishment.

Anyway, I have been reading some good things lately- Synchronicity by Jung (centers on the topic of meaningful coincidences), The Night Torn Mad with Footsteps by Bukowski (of course it was amazing, though I still maintain What Matters Most is How Well You Walk Through the Fire is better), Where the Sidewalk Ends (oh nostalgia! my mom got me it for christmas this year), Allen Ginsberg Collected Journals (haven't finished yet but very interesting, lends incite into his methods of writing, some original drafts of poems such as America, descriptions of dreams he had), The Kite Runner (my sister hates reading but she actually liked it, so I figured why not. was quite good, really gave you an idea of what afghanistan is like), The Myth of Sisyphus (Camus is by far one of my favorite authors and this is the only one of his books I haven't reread), Anne Sexton Collected Poems (brilliance), The Critique of Judgment by Kant (the essay on the beautiful is excellent), there are some more too but I can't remember at the moment.

The new season of Damages just started the other night and oh it is as good as ever. Though I'm not really one for t.v. since we don't have it at the apartment, I figure I might as well enjoy it now. So that means lots of Planet Earth and Cops. I'm tired of typing. Adieu!
