current obsessions

I love this…recurring blog feature perhaps?
OOPS, I got you books for your birthday. Recommendation: de-clutter your amazon wish list.
I wish exercising was an obsession for me. Lady Gaga, however, is.

I think it might well recur.
I did unclutter my wish list in advance of the holiday—& you managed to pick out christmas gifts that made the cut of “stuff I still want!” despite being an early shopper. I wrestled it down to under 60 things, then broke out “materials for master’s thesis” into a stand-alone list, mostly for my own reference.
My exercising obsession is mostly with obtaining a yoga/workout mat so that I can start doing crunches in my living room.
