From Can’t to Can
http://novaren.wordpress.com/ 2008/ 08/ 26/ from-cant-to-can/Some days I think I’ve caught that sickness where you’re in the midst of doing something singularly important, something that has the potential to change your whole entire life, and you know it, and we all know it, and there’s no one who doesn’t know it, but for some reason you want to curl up on the couch with the latest monster issue of Vogue, or turn on the monster TV.
