  Did everyone already hear about this?Click!My site worked on that satellite, even though I didn't personally. Everyone is just kind of in shock around here, because we know what goes into building one of those. It's YEARS of work by HUNDREDS of people. And gone in... oh, about 3 seconds?I highly ...

• & you’ve still got the most beautiful face

  October 22, 2006

  The hardest thing about going back to a diary is explaining away absence and describing the chunks of life that your readers have missed.The former I can’t explain. I could point to some things that could have influenced it. There was the random diarist who came upon my “open letter to the men of...

  An open letter to the men of the world:I love you. I really do. Even when you're doing obnoxious things like yelling at me from your apartment balcony or honking at me as I cross the street. You provide vague reassurance that not everyone thinks I'm ugly. When you think that, as a girl, I…

  So... I wrote a poem, right? (Sorry, forgot about that whole "I'll post it on Valentine's Day" thing...) And I even like some parts of it, but other parts make me go "meh" and crumple up paper. So if someone wants to take a look at this and let me know what doesn't seem to…
