2000-07-19 Where are the Velvets, when you're coming down? My apologies for not updating more. Whirlwinds of things are happening for me at work, as always. We're esparate for help. I'd put a spam message in here asking if anyone in San Francisco was looking for a job doing online ad creative, but I'd be your boss, and that alone should turn anyone off from the position. OK, I won't write more about work. Work hasn't been fun; in fact, it's been anti-fun lately. So that's the last I'll say about it today. I forget that I don't really publish in a vacuum. It's a wierd feeling when people who I've read for months ((or longer) link to me here or at Fear Not Drowning. I'm still surprised when it happens. (Hi Lara. I still owe you cornbread for New Years. :) ) (Oh, OK. And while I'm feeling linky, Hi Jay. Hi Richard. Hi Steve. Thank you all for your links, but more importantly for your words.) The Boyfriend and I went to Martuni's after dinner on Saturday. It was across the street, we'd seen it there, campy-as-hell, and it was someplace-to-go-why-not. And they had these amateur-night quality singers doing standards and show tunes. We got seats at the bar and thought, oh what luck. Then the singers took a break. And the worst fag-house-pap came out of the speakers at full volume. I nearly applauded when the bad singers came back. And I did a bad thing. I'm even breaking the law to do it. I downloaded a Gameboy Emulator and a copy of Pok�mon Red. Many weekend hours when I should have been updating my journal or calling my parents or getting caught up on work any number of things were spent staring at a tiny black and white screen, yelling "Squirtle! Go!" So I paid for it by being up until 3:50AM for work Monday. Where I paid for not getting caught up on work. It's scary that I was able to get up at 8:20AM...but the scariest part is that I woke up from a vivid dream about Jason Kottke and a Pok�mon tournament. I don't know why either. So now I really do have to go buy a Gameboy (The bright pink one, I think) and a Pok�mon game. Not so much out of guilt for breaking the law. In fact, not really because of that at all. Mostly, because I have to use the Gameboy cable link to get the Pok�mon I need to complete the Pok�dex. Yes, I've put the crackpipe down...why? Somewhere in the midst of this frenzy of activity a friend of mine pointed me to theYahoo Salary Wizard. Not something I needed to see. But we're not talking about that, now, are we? _Casey
