The topic: The Daily Show

I love it but I rarely watch it anymore… I’ve been going to bed wicked early of late. But that aside, here’s a synopsis of last night’s TDS with John Kerry. I missed that one too, but I will see if I can try to catch its rerun tonight. Here’s what CNN had to say about it:

I am also still curious about the Russian jet problems yesterday. I’m a sleepy monkey and I just plain wasn’t in the mood for coffee… but I grabbed a diet Mtn. Dew for the caffeination factor. I’m still looking for a coffee place to love… I miss the Coffee Bean (and Tea Leaf… that’s for you Annie. As is Disney’s California Adventure in Anaheim, California, USA, Earth, Solar System, Milky Way, Universe) or the Bean (that’s for you Jills). They have Peaberry coffee here. Their coffee is decent, better than Starbucks, but not handy to work…Common Grounds (see previous post) has adequate coffee, is independent, has fun people in it, but not open early enough for me to get to work with coffee and be on time.
Is there an ubertrendy name for the goth/hippie/yuppie people that I tend to be around a lot? They’re the ones with the fun hair, the cute glasses who ride bikes and carry messenger bags, and buy fun furniture.
I fell in love with a couch this weekend… but I’m afraid it was just the colors I loved… and it was comfy. It was at a Scandinavian furniture store (not Ikea, we don’t have those here), was biomorphically shaped, had a round swivel chair in the middle, and was happy colors like purple, pink and orange solid with polka dot throw pillows. It was also REALLY expensive and I’m afraid that if I buy it, I’ll just hate it in 3 years. And since I’m buying a BRAND NEW couch for the first time I’m feeling some responsibility for keeping it for a long time… Maybe I’ll get a fun one that isn’t quite so stylized… or expensive.
