I know the world is going crazy.

raybearI know I've posted excessively today, but I have two questions to pose to people who are lovely enough to take some time from their day to read this.
1. I have this strange emotional memory that gets triggered whenever I hear Ja Rule's Livin' It Up. And no, it's not blinding rage or anything. I feel really really sad. Today I realized that I must have some sort of association from when it was being played on the radio non-stop (back when I listened to WGCI at work and not CD's). Can someone help me out by reminding me of when the single was released and played repeatedly? I get all of his songs mixed up, and I don't need exact dates -- just a 2-3 month approximation.
2. I was given a Starbucks gift card today for a small amount -- barely enough to buy a mocha. I'm rather opposed to consuming products from Starbucks. Is using this gift card, which is not my money, compromising my moral superiority on this issue? Discuss.
Yesterday I said I was leaving at 5 pm to go home and nap. That didn't happen. Today it will. I promise myself. Hell, I'm probably going to pass out on the train and wake up in Evanston whether I want to take a nap or not.
