it's bedtime...i was planning to go to sleep, but then i got to thinking about tomorrow's dinner [i've got a lot of time to think] and, having recently purchased one of those five pound bags of russet potatoes, i decided to look into cream of potato soup recipes. i'm blenderless, and the best-looking recipe required a blender. i dont think i'd be a very good human blender. i'll keep you posted.

while i was in the grocery store after work today, i made the compulsory walk down the magazine aisle to see if the new rolling stone had arrived; i've mentioned before: no matter how ridiculous, year-end issues of music magazines rule. i am, however, quite disappointed in rolling stone. perhaps wanting to avoid pulling a spin and naming the current puddle of mudd album record of the year [spin gave it to system of a down last year...], THEY DID NOT RANK THE ALBUMS. Instead, they listed, alphabetically, the 50 best of the year. Bulldung I say.

They did, however, put the Breeders and Interpol and Spoon on there. No Trail of Dead or Walkmen, however. Or GbV.
