what i’m up to

pkimbui — Thu, 07 Aug 2008 16:07:56 +0000

loving: my blackberry. I know, I should have gotten an iPhone, but this will be good for now. Now I need a gel skin so I can be cool like the celebrities.

Watch Bill Moyers talk to Joseph Campbell. The book is just the transcript of this program.

reading: The Power of Myth with Bill Moyers. It’s a great book about myth and how it has and will affect the way the world works. Joseph Campbell is amazing.

watching: FireFly. It’s a great sci-fi series that reminds me of a western. And I like Nathan Fillion.

wanting: Some moving boxes. I’m in the middle of packing right now and I just ran out.

eating: Beef Stroganoff made with Sour Supreme, a fantastic sour cream substitute made from tofu. It doesn’t taste at all like tofu, I swear.

wearing: My mom’s tee-shirt from the ’70s and Levi’s that have holes. Comfy.
