he's singing a little in there

I recently renewed my Netflix subscription and at the top of my old queue was Born Into This, a documentary about Charles Bukowski that I've been wanting to see for a few years.

This film documents his brokenness and his brilliance very well.

My favorite Bukowski poem, read by Harry Dean Stanton, from the film.

A Weekend with Mr. Stearns and the Beales


My insanely wonderful package arrived a day ahead of Mr. Stearns. It contained many wonderful things, including an Eggleston book, the new Amy Sedaris book, teas from Chinatown in San Francisco, and fancy Australian salt. My most beloved item would have to be the Grey Gardens box set. I have had the Netflix Grey Gardens for over a month, now I can send it back. I really like this newly released footage, in many ways more than the original release. Mr Stearns and I have been enjoying this footage while he's here for a few days.

ps Do not waste your $8 on The Queen.
