Along with the other part of Jason's birthday present that came in the mail today, I got Sonic Youth: Hits Are for Squares. Now this is a kinda cheezy compilation that was sold at fucking Starbucks back in the day, but it has one exclusive track so I guess it's good to finally pick up the rare thing of a SY song I don't have. After work I finished reading Wifey by Judy Blume. It was very excellent. I guess it's a bit notorious as her "adult" book and it's pretty explicit, but coming from a place of humor-drenched anger (and steeped in 70s feminism). It's a bit like Philip Roth coming from a housewife's perspective. It has a pretty simple and light style, but it's written very effectively (I guess it's what makes her children's books so enduring, though I haven't read one since I was a child myself). It was part of our Spousal Book Club! Later at night, I ripped the cassette that came with the Zoviet France box set. So the box has thirty-four cds and one cassette that has never-before-released (even on the previous vinyl version of the box sets) music. Normally I wouldn't rip a cassette to just count it as a cd, but since this came in with a box of so many, I figured why not! So now I can really listen to what was on the tape.
