spacek spawn

i saw sissy spacek's daughter in urban tonight. i was on my way back from my research methods review (which was just as unhelpful as i predicted) and decided that the one thing i needed to do above all others (such as studying) was to go look in the same three places i always go into, seeing as they are totally on my way back to the apartment. seeing sissy spacek's apparently nameless daughter in urban was interesting for two reasons: 1) because she's sissy spacek's daughter, and was in "orange county", for all of the pop culture-illiterate among us; and 2) because i'm not supposed to be in urban outfitters. this is based on a self-imposed rule from about three months ago, when i was working at my aunt's office and stumbled upon an article on the internet about how the ceo of urban contributes lots of campaign money to a really conservative asshole congressman. it was another one of the causes i adopt that hurt no one but me. i haven't been adhering to my relatively new rule for a while now, and was thus walking through the store tonight just in time to see the above-mentioned spacek spawn wandering around. it's a bit of a coincidence that i would see her right after i read an article about her mom's role in carrie (and i did that today, just to clarify).

i need to do lots and lots of things tonight and i'm so tired and bleary-eyed (mostly from the clear eyes, as ironic as that is) that i just want to sleep or lay or stare vacantly at my computer and not have to think. but i think i need to punish myself for doing those very things every night for the past three weeks, and actually get some things accomplished before 1 am.

also, i ate some salad today and will probably have e. coli by tomorrow, so i should take advantage of the health i have right now and get as much done as possible.
