Life

Getting random beauty treatments here in BA. This week I tried this thing that my roommate and I call “Electrocution” (they name it something less terrifying at the salon). And also got a massage, which was good. Finally found good sushi! And hung out with people a lot more than has been normal lately. Checked myself into a nice hotel to better ignore the holiday this weekend. It’s nice. They have a pool, and food.

Media

Really appreciated Leave Me, and then read Three Amazing Things About You which was – appropriately – amazing, starting on The Expatriates. Still re-watching Drop Dead Diva – love that show, and Keeping Up with the Kardashians. Finished Thinking Fast and Slow, which I didn’t super enjoy, and starting on a preview copy of a friend’s new book (it’s awesome!)
