i gave my two cents on lily allen in the city paper this week. a postscript to what i think is the first time i’ve ever used the word ‘blog’ in print: when i first heard ‘ldn’ i binged on it like a sugar addict on a just-cracked can of duncan hines fudge swirl, zinging the mp3 from coast to coast via im transfers and byte-stuffed e-mails as i hit the ‘replay’ button over and over again. my memories of it now have receded into a pleasant hum — any wriggling irritants glossed over, any bits of sunburn mottled into rapidly fading freckles.
