At some point a good half of the spam I get started being in French.  I have no idea why.

“ Granoff announced that, in addition to new retail spaces, the re-branded Arcade Providence will host forty-eight micro-lofts on the second and third floors. The majority of the apartments will range from 225 to 270 square feet in size, and will be completely furnished with built-in beds, storage and seating. Rents will start at the cut-rate price of $550 per month, including utilities. ”

I just can’t help feeling that this plan to renovate America’s oldest shopping mall is the dumbest idea imaginable.  I mean at least they gave up on the idea of turning it into a box store or whatever the hell the last plan was.

($550 a month for no kitchen plus god knows what in parking fees is not really a deal in this city.)

Your new favorite song.

Porter Wagoner, “Carroll County Accident”

I like it better when Dolly sings it but, you know, this is fine, too.

Saint Etienne, “Tonight”

My favorite single of 2012 so far (of, you know, the five or six singles I’ve liked so far this year…)

These Woolrich Chucks have been out for a year and a half now so probably if you are one of those sneaker people you will not be remotely happy for me, but last night I got the last pair at Sneaker Junkies and they were only $40 and more importantly they actually fit me.  That NEVER happens.

Kenny Mellman, “Knock You Down / Kiss You Thru The Phone”

I was just listening to my Best of ‘09 playlist while writing e-mails but this song totally sent my evening spiraling in a different direction.
