You shouldn't be using CSV. Your file isn't in a comma-separated values format. CSV splits the file lines into unparsable pieces.

Take

{"status": "All items processed", "state_code": "GA", "processed_timestamp": "2013/05/14 19:32:08 UTC", "destination_zip": "31028", "odr_date": "2013-05-13 00:00:00""cost": 54.08}

and split it on the ',' and you get a list:

['{"status": "All items processed"',
 '"state_code": "GA"',
 '"processed_timestamp": "2013/05/14 19:32:08 UTC"',
 (etc..)

That first line is looking kinda familiar.

Just open the file and read it line by line - skip the csv thing entirely.
