no posts in three days is blasphemous on the internet. but i needed some time away from this familiar 15-inch screen. plus, i figured the way you start the summer sets the tone for the rest of it.
things got kicked off on thursday with a little professional boost, an interview, and some drinks in the south end. on friday some friends from new york were in town for the sox/mets game so a quick...

thanks ash! now what will it take for you to start a tumblr?
did i tell you all about how 2 weeks ago i spilled nail polish all over my bathroom floor? and how it got on the bottom of my pajama pants so i took them off to avoid spreading polish further? and i realized that i wasn’t wearing underwear, so i had to squat down and clean it up bottomless?
no? i didn’t? hmm i wonder why.
Watch“you ate it all”
“thank you”
what kind of response is that?!?!
you’d think the leader of the free world could afford employees familiar with crude powerpoint layouts.
it’s a basic computer skill at this point. so much so that indicating your expertise with the program on a resume is kinda lame. you’d be laughed at less for including excel as a qualification. cause excel is hard, man.

the new book im reading: operating manual for spaceship earth by r. buckminster fuller.
i’m about 3/4ths of the way through and i’d recommend it to anyone who finds themselves at a crux. and as bucky saw it (in ‘69 mind you), we are all at a crossroads in regards to moving humanity along.
