The Mara has to have toothjaw surgery again. You've never seen anyone so excited about their third repeat of the same toothjaw surgery. She goes under the knife on Monday at Chinese Dentist Time (two-thirty...say it out loud).

Also: our oven is officially kapotski. The burners still work, but ze big part not so much. Any bets on how long it will take us to replace it? My money's on "not before Xmas".

In other painful news, I'm DJing again, next Wednesday will make it three times this month, so it must be official. One of the best things about DJing is looking for (and sometimes even successfully finding) new music. One of the worst things about looking for new music is having to put up with ridiculous music journalism that constantly tries to invent new styles of music. I'm not talking about genres with some basis in real things that actually happened (footwork, post-dubstep), I'm talking about shit that some little white hipster dude just made up yesterday afternoon in preparation for one day becoming Simon Reynolds. Here are some brand-new genres that I'm totally not kidding are supposedly now in existence.
