Almost used the word “aplomb” in an email. Time to step away from the keyboard, Frank, and pull your head out of your ass.

Broke down & watched 1st episode of Downton Abbey. Pains me to admit it, but it’s… worth the hype.

Drank a half bottle of wine tonight that cost $28 (for the carafe) and tasted EXACTLY like Kool-Aid dosed with brandy. Yes; I’m back in NYC.

Mapping Twitter Traffic
Eric Fischer has been mapping Twitter traffic in major cities, resulting in beautiful cartographic representations of our information flow. It’s all faintly reminiscent of blood vessels or a network of neurons. I think there’s a metaphor in there somewhere.

Lydia Davis’s Twitter Feed
Friend of clusterflock Mike Topp retweeted a Lydia Davis tweet yesterday, which prompted me to hope she was a regular on Twitter. Alas, this is the entirety of her Twitter feed:
Although I don’t mind them, I feel cut off from all the other people in this country — to mention only this country.

I AM SIMPLY NOT INTERESTED, AT THIS POINT, IN CREATING NARRATIVE SCENES BETWEEN CHARACTERS.
— Lydia Davis (@lydia_davis) November 2, 2009
To be exhaustive is, of course, an infinite task: more events can always be inserted, more nuance in the narration…

Fuck bitches. Get money.

Of course, there are other ways to read Lydia Davis.
