Rob Gordon is the reluctant owner of Championship Vinyl – a used and indie record shop – who lives with Laura, a willowy urbane lawyer who lends him money and whom we suppose from the start is too good for him. But Rob is smart and clever and the sort of fellow who arranges his industrial...

So me and my roommates have accumulated a fair amount of wine bottles. We are looking for some ideas for art projects to do with the bottles (probably around 20 or so). Any suggestions?

I FINISHED Infinite Jest
It took a long time. But finally, I am done with this novel. And already I want to re-read it. I need to understand it better, and the only way is through rereading. But alas, I have more to read and can’t devote three more months of my life to rereading this work.
Amazing book, for anyone who is thinking of reading it or giving up on it. Stick with it, because in the end you will not...
Anxiety

But in the past three months, they have gotten to the point where I have been avoiding social situations and staying pretty much a recluse (tumblr much?).

LOVE ; Kahlil Gibran
caxs:
When love beckons to you, follow him, Though his ways are hard and steep. And when his wings enfold you yield to him, Though the sword hidden among his pinions may wound you. And when he speaks to you believe in him, Though his voice may shatter your dreams as the north wind lays waste the garden. For even as love crowns you so shall he crucify you. Even as he is for your growth so is...
