new york times feature on graduating from college dorm style living to a proper well designed residence. i just like the new design. nice art on walls and good sofas. still, the whole think cost $8,000. style isn’t cheap (most of the time).

amazing set of plays at the tricycle theatre, kilburn, london. seriously “seize the day” is the best play I’ve seen!

How artists conduct business.
Mick is my new business hero. In this terse letter he congratulates his coworker, he sets expectations, he advises w/o directing and takes the pitfalls of the compensation issue entirely off the table. I sincerely aspire to lead/create/live like this.
Read it twice.
looking forward to this…

reading
i read a lot. most of it is probably junk and completely useless but I take it all in. for me the accumulation of knowledge (typically through reading) is something i almost can’t do without. unlike most people i know who read a lot, I rarely read fiction. in fact, i can probably count the number of fictional books i’ve read from start to finish on a pair of hands. fiction never quite interested me, it just felt somewhat useless. non-fiction attracted me beause it could be applied to everyday life. it could be a book on economic history or a random article in vanity fair. somewhere, sometime that knowledge will be of some use.
my relationship with reading takes me on some wild rides. on saturday afternoon when i am lazying about at home after a late night, i can’t bare to watch tv or a film. again, mostly fictional it seems like a waste of time. espeically considering i would likely have wasted a lot of money the night previous and felt the need to make up for it. so on starurday afternoon your likely to find me spening hours trawling through wikipedia and assorted articles. i can start something mundane like different sorts of fabrics and end up on an article about ancient mesopotamia. its pretty fascinating and thats how i learn about pretty interesting things.
this all probably makes me a bit of a nerd, what the hell! reading is fun
