song of the day: big country / big country
word of the day: snuggle

while on tour i purchased the first season of Dead Like Me, based on the public, emphatic recommendations of Art Bell on Coast to Coast AM radio show. mistake. first of all, Art, god bless him- he's a lovely sweet guy, but he's got the cultural sensibilities of a nine year old with a wigi board fetish. this show, which stars Mandi Patinkin (and others, including the star girl chick whom i can't remember) has a cool enough premise: an 18 year old girl dies, becomes a grim reaper, and learns all the lessons about life while she's dead.
