http://xkcd.com/137/

Things that I am currently thinking about:

Words that I dislike, yet feel compelled to use in everyday speech (in varying degrees of usage frequency): "discombobulate," "literally," "stick-to-it-ive-ness," "melange," "like," "cornucopia," "uber," and "totally."

Crushes on fictional characters: Jim Halpert (was there any doubt?), Wash (see Jim Halpert), Eisenheim (Edward Norton in The Illusionist), Hector (I always root for the underdog), and Batman (seriously, who wouldn't?)

Main characters in my screenplay: Patrick & Becky Collins. I'm actually a lot more like Patrick than Becky.

Current screenplay length: Roughly 30 pages.

Songs on repeat in my iPod during the past two morning bus rides: "Rebellion (Lies)"-Arcade Fire, "Such Great Heights"-The Postal Service, "Telescope Eyes" & "Marvelous Things"-Eisley, and "Sounds Like a Personal Problem"-Ghost of the Robot.

Currently reading: Self-Made Man by Norah Vincent.

Also, it's very cold outside.
