I have such a thing for "bodysuits." They were really popular when I was in eighth grade, and I had many, many sexual fantasies about the girls who wore them in class right when my hormones were at full potency.

Today I felt useless and lethargic, but I really was semi-productive. I wrote a song and went for a run. Rest of the day spent on Facebook and Netflix, Wah Wah. Watching a lot of Portlandia.
Tomorrow, though, I'm super-busy! In the morning, I'm recording a radio spot to market a poetry reading...
