Song of the Moment: Bobby Darin – “Dreamlover”

It’s colder than a witch’s boob in a brass brassiere out there, folks. This morning, weather.com said it felt like 0 degrees. I went out to start my car and started freaking out when I put it in reverse and it wouldn’t move. I tried to apply pressure to the gas pedal, but all my car did was make this loud weezing sound and produce a dark cloud of black smoke. It then occurred to me that my car’s engine was most likely frozen like cow meat in the freezer room. Thus, I waited a good ten minutes to warm up my car before it would move. I can already tell my car is going to be a stubborn little sucker this winter.

I really don’t have much else to talk about on this mundane Monday. I hope everybody had a relaxing weekend. I certainly did…hardly did much is what I mean to say. Though, I actually did some reading. Yes, it’s incredibly surprising, I know. I started The Road by Cormac McCarthy. It’s quite good, not to mention a good exercise for my idle brain. I think this is the first time I’ve read anything from a book since I graduated college. I kid you not. I mean, I read the news online, but to actually sit down (or in my case, lie down on my bed like a beached whale) and read a book, it’s been quite a while. I can’t even honestly say I read all my books during college. Haha.

On a random note, I have the two largest pimples I think I’ve ever had in my entire life of having pimple issues. One is smack in the middle of my cheek and the other one is oh-so-conveniently located right under my left eyebrow. They’re so large, they actually look like gangly warts. I totally look like a leper right now. I’m tempted to wrap the left side of my face in my pashmina and only reveal the right side of my face. No, that’s not weird. What are you talking about? I see people do it all the time…err, yeah. o_O?
