Tip for cold, slushy afternoons: check out the iTunes Celebrity Playlists. Revel in the atrocious choices of people you hate, shake your head at the pathetically predictable ones of people you're indifferent about and gasp with surprise at the misguided attempts to appear cool of the people you had (until you checked their playlists out) sort of liked.

My (only) favorite: Lemony Snicket. Go figure.

And since I'm trash talking I guess I should ante up. TB posted ASAP: my own atrocious, pathetically predictable, misguided and uncool playlist.

I have a tendency to stumble upon strange things. Like this. On a tropical beach.

I took this photo while having a lemonade of the terrace of a cafe in Havana. I could use a lemonade & a change of scenery right now.

If I lived in London I would ride the bus all the time. Would I miss the smell of hobo urine in the morning?
