1. Amber Riley (Mercedes on Glee) is an incredible artist, and we share the same favorite Michael Jackson song! (Which would be "Human Nature" from Thriller.)
2. Networking is hard, and I am bad at it.
3. Used books are so cool! The only type of book this doesn't 100% apply to, in my estimation, is comics, which are kind of nice when they're fresh, and it's better to have new textbooks for the childrens, but in all other arenas the used book kicks the new book's butt. Take, for example, this '77 edition of Alastair Reid's translations of Borges' volume The Gold of the Tigers that I bought, like, a week ago, and haven't yet read. I don't need to read it. I just want to own it. It's got awesome flippy pages and a paint-by-numbers pile of limned spaces that could very well add up to a tiger, and the typeface on the cover is lovely, and it has the cool scent of an older book (mixed with purse gum, but that's another story). A new book is just a book, but a used book is a find.
4. Purse gum, and what is up with it.
5. My love of chicken salad.

Hmmm. I may just stick to supplemental performance information.
