Self-consciousness

There's such a great feeling about being deeply infatuated with one song that you know completely redeems you.

I refuse to accept that this is a blog. Blogs have message boards. I'm not that self-important. The only people who might be reading this are friends who already know how to get in touch with me. Most likely you're someone I haven't talked to in years, were linked here by my profile, and read this occasionally out of boredom. I'm not offended, I do exactly the same thing.

In an editorial I'm writing, I need to refer to television/TV. In deciding whether to call it "television" or "TV" I'm reminded of a bit from Mr. Show: "I don't even own a television; notice how I called it 'television,' not 'TV,' because 'TV' is a nickname, and nicknames are for friends, and television is no friend of mine." I can't be that guy. I'm forced to use "TV."
