Sorted boxes of books in my new box hostel. Only lost 40 -- there are a lot of books, so "only" is relative -- books to water damage at the previous box hostel. Paid Joe his 12 of Newcastle and taped up some boxes. Basement fun.
Ran into a friend who just got engaged walking down the bike path to Davis Square. Talked briefly to my recent ex on the phone, read some magazines -- Giant Robot, Bust, Metal Maniacs (one of the bestest mags ever) -- and founded a new organization:
Zinemakers Against the Apostrophe (ZATA)
I hate it when people use the word 'zine. Like zines are quaint, cute, and coy lesserthans to magazines. It's odd to be grumpy about something so lame, but most zines don't aspire to be magazines. They're not even really offshoots of magazines. They're their own beast.
That's all I have to say. If you'd like to join, let me know. ZATA is on the march!
