desire, demands, dreams




My wrist wants that bell & ross, spam wants more music in exchange for her ditziness, my life needs that jackpot.

But today, I'll just settle for some peace and quiet to end the week with.

die wondering


There's an episode of Mad Men where the protagonist, Don Draper (CD of fictional agency Sterling Cooper), gets courted by McCann. An athletic club membership, golf clubs, a "Yankee Stadium" salary package and seemingly salivating accounts are dangled in front of Don by Jim Hobart, head honcho at McCann.

Jim: You're a hard man to run into. The next step is a quiet rendezvous… at the Algonquin Hotel.
Don: You're not into the phone thing?
Jim: I'd rather do it face-to-face. I can offer you something… bigger.
Don: Small is bad?
Jim: You'll be so much bigger here. Can you imagine the lifestyle that goes along with Pan-Am? It's a panty dropper.
Don: Um.
Jim: Eventually you come up here, or die wondering.

Priceless last line :).
