“Interesting story: My father once related how he and his friend Les had come up with a way, when stalling for time in a meeting or deposition (he and Les were lawyers [Les, alive and well, still is a lawyer]), instead of saying “Um…,” or “Uh…,” one could say “Now…,” a word which accomplishes the same stalling purpose as “Um…,” or “Uh…,” but instead of being dumb-sounding offputting, it creates suspense for what is coming next, whatever that might be, that which the speaker doesn’t yet know.” — dave eggers. heartbreaking work of staggering genius.

(sidenote: that is not a kabbalah bracelet… it’s a salvador bonfim wish ribbon that happens to be my favorite color, red. i just felt the need to put that out there, in case this actually gets posted.)

 OMG! LOVELY
