Worth getting up for in October: the North Carolina State Fair; a proliferation of excellent national touring acts coming through the CH in specific and the NC at large; the word proliferation; dreaming of road trips; federal holidays1; the new Big Star box set, Keep An Eye On The Sky; the Molina & Johnson self-titled album; Memphis horn sections; garlic french fries; not being afraid to give my card to people I’d like to connect with professionally; Iowa football, Boise State football, and BOISE ISN’T A STATE — WE LOOKED IT UP signs; scoring cheap brand-new copies of seasons of the West Wing I didn’t already own; taxonomies of cereal and of macaroons; finding abandoned playing cards in venues after Michael has been there; argyle sweaters; Colt and SamBrad’s big gay friendship; our motherfucking President with the Heisman trophy; all my holds on new books coming in at the library; watching Carolina football be faily on national TV, thereby reinforcing our household belief that TJ Yates is bad and should feel bad; corn mazes in Lee County; excellent Google Reader shares; Mondays when half my appointments no-show; the SEC’s current make bad calls first, suspend second, think last policy; “What’s the best thing in the world?” “Doin’ it!”; my E-series 100mm lens, which has already paid for itself about six times over; warranties on cameras when they unexpectedly break; release parties for beloved bands’ new EPs; having someone say yes to projects you proposed months ago and then forgot about; Jack Daniels in mulled cider.
