Other crap that's on my mind.

A website about things you probably don't care about, but I do so shove it.

thanks

Thank you to all my friends, co-workers and mom who bought me drinks, called, texted, imed or emailed just to make sure I'm doing okay. It's nice to know I have people in my life that care about my well-being.

Right now, I'm actually in Boston for some geekfest. I'm totally serious too. There are about 500 dorky dudes, downstairs as I type this, eating breakfast and talking about which ActionScript seminar they're going to attend, while another 500 guys are still in their hotel rooms jerking off to Flash.

I, of course, don't understand any of this.

But on the flight here, Dominic and I watched The Karate Kid. This movie is probably the best thing I've reseen in awhile. It's timeless and funny and heartwarming and empowering and well, just fucking awesome.

It was exactly what I needed to keep my spirits up. I had my good cry the day it all went down and probably ruined one of Dominic's shirts with the amount of snot that came pouring out of my nose, but today is a new day! I will look for a job. I will get my webite together. I will call my headhunter. I will hobnob at this geekfest a little. And I will listen to "You're the best (around)!" from The Karate Kid every morning to keep me motivated and strong.

Yes, that's right foks, I actually have that song on my ipod.

Just found you via a comment on notmartha.

1. Knitting group? Cafe Presse? HEARTS. Are you still doing that?

2. How do you feel about commuting to Bellevue? It's not advertising, but check out ascentium.com (not a very informational site, sorry) and if you are interested let me know at lauren dot manes using google's mail service. (sorry, trying to foil the evil spambots.) I'll check back here too if I remember.

hey lady - although we exchanged mere silence on most mornings, the bus stop is definitely lonlier nowadays. i told DC that i found you on myspace and I meant it to be consoling and he said "that's all you got?" ah, myspace.

i don't think this comment makes any sense - i'm home with the flu. regardless, we miss you and know you will be on to way better things. see you round the hood. aylin
