Finally watched "Inglourious Basterds." Some gore didn't distract me from the smart, stylish film -- quite possibly Quentin Tarantino's best.

Saw Irish rockers Garrahan's Ghost at the First Cap. They covered the Decembrists and had the whole bar screaming traditional tunes.

Visited Central Market to pick up a pumpkin, coffee and another city parking horror story. (It's fun when people make spaces in no-parking zones.)

I was thankful that "Mad Men" was on in the middle of Sunday's Emmy telecast. (Too many Kanye jokes and nerdy glasses. Ugh.)

Spent most of the week and weekend listening to Kid Cudi's debut: "Man on the Moon: The End of Day." (It's practically the "Soundtrack 2 My Life.")
