Honestly it's just another zombie movie. Okay, these ones have tenticles. And sure, this movie is cleverer than most, but within the framework of typical horror narratives, the bar is quite literally in hell.

Today for the first time I encountered padlocked toilet paper. (@ Owen Beach, Tacoma) They should have done this in the City Center mall bathroom in 2001 when I was stealing rolls of toilet paper from there. (The statute of limitations has expired on that right?)

I am forever indifferent to almost all of Taylor Swift's music (sorry, I still don't think any of it is special), so I never knew she was such a cat lady until after she held up her cat "Olivia Benson" in the Law & Order: SVU sketch on the Emmys last night. And okay fine I find this delightful.

I was surprisingly moved by this piece. From the writer's own reply in the comments: "Discovering that love is as much a decision as an emotion has proven to be everything." Talk about resonant.

Shobhit and I started watching season 3 of the HBO comedy travel show CONAN MUST GO, with just two episodes available so far. The first was in India, where Shobhit is from; the second in Amsterdam, where we just had our 18-day vacation. What are the odds of that?? (Both were hilarious.)

This trip to Amsterdam was my first traveling so far east first, and the jet lag has been way worse than either of the trips to Australia were—even though the time difference was the same (just in different directions). This shit is killing me.
