Over the weekend, Ladybug and I watched The Darwin Awards, which had a cameo by Lawrence Ferlinghetti. I don’t suppose this can count towards my 25 hours a week working on my MFA, can it?

I am both buoyed and disappointed when I find out that my heroes are actually real people with real problems. Thankfully, there is still Petra Haden. Listen to this. Then, listen to this. Petra Haden is on fire right now.
