the laze

you know i check the blog almost every day, always dissapointed when there isn't a post, and then i realize that i am 1/5th to blame. shame on me.

anyway, classes finished for me a week and a half ago, and i promptly headed to burlington, and didn't do a bit of work for 9 days. it was wonderful. i think we should have our reunion there next year. you all would love it, and then you would get to meet the current love of my life-baxter that is. i also fell in love with The OC while there. really a stellar show. you all must watch season one-it's out on dvd now.

now i'm back in boston, and just finished an Op Ed on self-checkout lanes. what a fluff assignment. my analysis is-use 'em for the small stuff, but enjoy yourself with the big orders and have a friendly exchange with the cashier. as far as i can tell, they aren't really costing anyone's jobs. no more guilt about self-checkout lanes-hoorah!

now that that is finished, i have my real work to get to, but am feeling a bit unmotivated. i keep myself distracted by looking for dogs- yep, i think i'm getting one this summer, i am so excited, looking for summer employment, and perusing (sp?) friendster. i need to get this work done so i can get out of the house, or i may go crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i can't wait to see you guys this summer. i'm really looking forward to that. also getting excited about israel and other dangerous travelling plans. maybe i'll go on some sort of rock climbing adventure or something.

i'll catch up with people soon. it's been a while since i've talked to most of you. greg, thanks for the nice drunk dial. so sweet. shan, good luck with your finals. when are you heading back west? a, congrats on your latest chapter. do we ever get to read this book that has consumed the last two years of your life (clearly an exageration, i keep up with your daily posts, you seem to have plenty of fun)? b, where are you? m, are you out there at all?

miss you all.
love,
