Done with Deadline and 36-24-36

Just finished my review of "The Triplets of Belleville." It was done (on time, mind you) in record time. I wrote 17.2" in an hour and had it polished and fact checked so that Aaron could have it editted by 3. Brilliant! Look for it on Thursday.

I had a wierd thought today when my Poli Sci prof was discussing the blaming of poor female body image on Barbie dolls — if I had a daughter I wouldn't want to deprive her of the cultural signifigance of having a Barbie (who apparently has outgrown her longtime beau Ken, thank you Christina for bringing that to my attention) but I wouldn't want to give her such a poor template of female body image. Suddenly I had a mental picture of someone sanding down their daughter's dolls' plastic bod' to more managable proportions with sandpaper in their garage workshop. Weirdness.

We Bid Wednesday Adieu

Today I barely made it through my physics of the internet class without falling asleep. Two hours of listening to my GTF (who apparently wears shorts even in dead of winter - it was 33 degrees when i left the house) talk about the diffrence between S-RAM and D-RAM is enought to kill any residual latte buzz.
As an upside people seem to have been responding positively to my column. Someone wanted to know if "breakfast Epiphanies" my column name was some allusion to "Breakfast at Tiffany's." I almost killed myself. (It comes from a classic Herb Caen column.

ALSO: World's Greatest Micheal Jackson dance party in the last half hour of work at the bookstore. Apparently, Emily can cut a rug despite amnesia regarding the "Billie Jean" music vid.

The Long Sleep...

Holy Shit I haven't posted since October?! Ok my life has been nuts/crazy/awesome/amazing/sad/hopefull/brilliant since then but lets get to the present. This past weekend I went up with Cameron and Carly to see my Seattle crew (I went on Israel Birthright and met an entire slew of brilliantly cool University of Washington kids). It was only 4 and half hours to drive up there (when you drive 7 and a half hours to go home to San Francisco that is nothing) and they entire gang was amazing.
I also found an amazing find at a street market — a blue vinyl bag for athlete from the 1972 Munich Olympics.
