Mental Notes: October 2002

TAIPEI–A very mellow Friday at Peso, playlist follows. Not much going on, other than I’m finally off the couch at Bron’s and into Tom’s flat, squatting while he goes to Japan for a week or so. Currently in the process of Halloween party organization at Aliang’s, might not wear pants again this year. It worked last year =O Need to do 3 weeks of crunches so I can bounce a coin off me butt though. LOL.
