Things I've been obsessing over/been busy doing these past few days -
- (Obsessing about)whether to get Apple's Magic Mouse
- (been busy) asking my father to get me this or that from Canada, namely The Audacity to Win by David Plouffe, a new Starbucks tumbler because mine just broke, and magazines
- (Obsessing over)whether to get a subscription to The Atlantic
- (been busy) reading 10,000 different things. Amongst others The Believers by Zoe Heller, issue 8 of n+1, a multitude of articles in the politics section of the NYT, Jonathan Franzen's The Discomfort Zone, the October issue of The Atlantic I bought in London, and catching up on The Rachel Maddow Show and Countdown. Also, following people on Twitter takes an awful lot of time.

- (been busy) learning how to drive.
