totally worth it.

Months of patience finally pays off. I've been stalking this woman's office for weeks trying to get a picture of this creep-fest and today was the day. Quite a fan, this woman. The first time I saw (beheld?) it I actually had legitimate business in there and I could barely speak about the receipt or whatever that I had brought her. I thought of you guys immediately. There are pictures of Mel in his convertible, Mel holding kitties, Mel flexing his hair. Most of the Jesus paraphernalia is on the other wall but the crucifix there pretty well sums it up.

OMG TWIN PEAKS

Riffing off of Derya's last post, Brian and I have been watching Season 1 of Twin Peaks on our respective computer screens all week. Ok, Brian has been watching all week, in disciplined viewing sessions, with no more than one episode viewed nightly-- I've surpassed him by watching basically the entire first season in a particularly lazy period of less than 24 hours. This is what my life has been reduced to. But I have to say it's worth it: I love the way Special Agent Cooper enjoys his pie and coffee, and the matter-of-fact way that Bobby's militaristic father talks about feelings. I love the fact that this "little town" (which, if you go by the population on the sign in the beginning of the show, is actually bigger than Spartanburg) has been so transformed by this murder, turning everyone, even high-school kids, into sleuths-- EVERYONE is trying to solve this, and everyone has their own ulterior motives for doing so. Classic drama, but complete with total Lynchian wierdness. Rachel is traveling the world, Nicholas has moved into his new home in Arizona, Derya attends conferences in New England and zips up and down the East Coast, and this is what I do, lay in bed and watch David Lynch do TV kitsch. Hmmm. Depressing, but also delicious.

I'm trying to write SOMETHING, ANYTHING these days, but I find I don't have the discipline. I think I used to have a work ethic. I don't know where it went. Advice, anyone?

In the meantime, check out this golden pic:

for our girl rachel! happy birthday boo!

!!!!!!!!!!!!

i just learned today that www.cbs.com/classics has both seasons of twin peaks (which i am at long last getting to and am in the throws of) available to watch for FREE

also available are 90210, melrose (!), family ties and THE FIRST SEASON OF THE LOVE BOAT.

but twin peaks is clearly where it's at and though the intermittent commercials are a drag, and the technology sometimes sucks it up (i can't get it to go past the first "commercial break" on season two episode four- ack!) it's still pretty awesome.

and omg david lynch = greatness. funny, odd, and terrifying, and inventive, and creepy as shit.

but i know you already knew that.
i sort of can't believe this was ever on network tv...

btw for you two who LOVE mulholland drive, the story is in part inspired by/ a continuation of twin peaks' audrey.... or at least that what the interwebs told me
