Rooftops

My trip to Krakow ended up being a little weird, with the birthday girl packing her stuff and leaving abruptly mid-weekend. Also, I'm out of cash, so I had to get the cheap tickets, and ended up standing in the hallway for 3 hours on my way there and barely managing to squeeze myself into a compartment with 7 other people on the way back. All in all, a less than smooth transition, and I rarely handle displacement well in the first place, so I shut down for a moment there.

Also, my tooth is acting up again, so off I go to the dentist tomorrow, and everything seems to spell root canal. (It's Valentine's Day, and I imagine some of the couples in the streets are a bit annoyed at having been roped into spelling "root canal" just for the sake of this metaphor, but such is life.)

And so the shutdown continues. I have decreed that I will not work at all today and instead just stuff my gob with food - WHILE I STILL CAN - and play computer games, to prepare myself for the dental massacre ahead, but then I remembered that I'm also broke, so that's probably not a good idea.

What else... Lana Del Rey's album is good. (I'd say I like 10 out of 15 of the songs, which is a very impressive ratio). Chelsea Handler's talk show is still horrible, but I watch it religiously nonetheless.

Oh, and I already have plans for 2013! We'll see how that pans out.
