Not much time or mental energy for a real post. But I thought I'd point you in the direction of a couple of cool things:

First, a really sweet website: Free Rice. All you do is play a vocab game, some ads are at the bottom, and the money from the ads goes to buy rice for the United Nations World Food Program. And being somewhat of a literary nerd, I don't mind the vocab workout either. They're up to 4.5 million grains of rice... not too shabby. I can procrastinate from writing my papers while feeding people! What a great way for me to not feel guilty about being distracted. (PS: my best level so far is 43... see what you can do)

Second, a new album from Steven Delopoulos that you can download for $10 at his website. Steven Delopoulos was the lead singer of Burlap to Cashmere, and his second solo album is just as awesome (or awesomer?) than their stuff. In fact, his first solo album, Me Died Blue, was also quite excellent. I highly recommend giving either, or both, a listen.
