From Indiana

whoever you are, thanks for this:

The movies lie in many ways, but in this one oh so cruelly. The girl doesn’t wait forever. Love alone is not enough. The ending is not always happy.

sounds like ideology critique to me -- the cynicism as concerns the simultaneous ubiquity and transparency of the dominant discourse, the accusation of the perpetuation of a system of similar cultural artifacts, the angry pessimism of horkheimer at work, that whole spiel -- and oh, of course it could be from my own head (if i had the time to think)...

except it's really a maudlin guest rumination from sex and the ivy: <http://sexandtheivy.com/2007/10/24/an-evolution-of-waiting-guest-post-by-indiana>.

if you haven't read elle yet, start now. she's quite a celebrity in the blogosphere, and in many ways she speaks my life.

What fun!
And
You lucky thing!
Because there's NOTHING sweeter than getting a deal when you go shopping.
(Also, there was no need to credit me for that meme. I just found it cool that you used it because I made it up!)
