All this latent cold weather makes me want to fly away somewhere... except for a few blissful moments playing in untouched snow and then cozying up in front of a space heater afterwards, the cold is a good-for-nothing beast which sinks teeth into the marrow of my bones and I want it out.
But other than hating on the cold, and blaming it on the rain (...nice) I've been busy getting obsessed with new things.
1) Friends as bloggers - never realized that one of your besties was a secret wordsmith until you found their blog by accident one night? Yeah... it happens. Some people are born to blog about things and have a naturally funny, endearing and adventurous voice. Then all of a sudden 20 entries in, you realize you know them, and that they've been hiding their brilliance from you all this time and you're a little bit hurt and a little hot and bothered and a lot of excited ... it's the voyeur in you.
2) Service Bell - try as I might, I can't get the Grizzly Bear featuring Feist version of this song out of my head. I love songs that paint word pictures, and this one paints me a Russian countryside filled with circus animals and trapeze artists swinging from branches while a mysterious person watches from far away, bell in hand.
3) Pink Dolphins - I know a narwhal video was featured not too long ago, but pink dolphins will give them a run for the gay-friendly-sea-creature title of the century.
4) Snuggie Pub Crawl - Pretty self-explanatory... I just heard about this, I want in!
5) Obamiconme.com - Paste magazine Editor-in-Chief, Josh Jackson, and some web developers just hatched this idea up one day and out comes - instant Facebook classic.
What are you obsessing over?
