These look like some good lectures (I can't believe they made that a graphic!) -- Miranda July is coming, and I have to decide if I'm going to go see her or Broken Social Scene. She's also appearing the following night at Yerba Buena, which makes the decision a little easier. Yes, one of these days I'm going to post my Upcoming events on the sidebar.

Coming a little late to the party, I've just discovered actually buying things on eBay. I had thought it was just for looking at curious objects, but then discovered that you could actually pay for them and have people ship them to you. A revelation of sorts. I bought an enormous pair of Count Dracula style candelabras with eight arms that are almost as tall as I am. Perfect for the game of Werewolf we are having here in November. I also bought a model stomach from the 1880s, made in Warsaw, Poland. See the little hinges? You can open it up. I'm going to use it as a candy dish, or, perhaps, for serving the cranberry sauce at Thanksgiving.
