I first read this in Mountain Man Dance Moves at Christmas and it still made me laugh until my stomach ached tonight:

Errors in Communication Between My Hairdresser and Me, in the Form of What I Said and What He Heard

…via McSweeney’s

Cupcakes – my new obsession. Did you know people devote entire blogs to cupcake recipes and take beautiful pictures of them? Go here and tell me that you don’t want to lick the screen.

Lily Allen — thanks to Allison for turning me on to her. My favorite song so far is the very funny Alphie. Wyatt likes to have family dance parties to Lily Allen music too.

The “Born OK the first time” bumper sticker I saw right before the oil light went on yesterday. I like “01-20-09” even better though.

The Sopranos — I know I just talked about the Sopranos the other day, but we watched the penultimate episode Wednesday night and it was fantastic. I can’t wait for Sunday.

The new One Dollar Coins — I got my first $1 coin from a parking lot machine yesterday. It had John Adams on it. Words cannot express my love of one dollar coins (and you should ask my co-workers how many words they’ve heard as I try to express it).
