I am on a quest to link my work with my play. For example, I would like nothing better than to have a caramel sunday from McDonald's, to rent the first season of Bones, and find the episode where Bones goes to a Hip Hop club and gets into a fight with a stereotypically "ghetto-acting" Black lady after Bones says that she really likes the "animalistic" beat of the music.
I mean, there are times when popular culture just seems like the most wonderful petri dish for attempting half-baked deconstructions of race, class and gender. It's the intellectual compliment to my as-yet unconsumed sunday. Or maybe its more like a twinkie for my brain? Anyway.
The video store is only five minutes away. I'll be back in as much time as it would take me to procrastinate about doing the work I'm currently feeling guilty for not having done....
