Time out

December 30, 2001

i am coughing hysterically and it just won’t stop. i’ve been sick for almost two weeks now. it makes me so sad and achey and cranky, too. i suppose it’s partly my fault; i have not really taken a good chunk of time to rest until today. it’s been so much go-go-go with my two brothers in tow. but can anyone blame me? i hadn’t hung out with them both in a couple years, so of course we’ve tried to pack it all in there.

today, however, i take my leave from them, as they’ve trekked up the mountain to go snowboarding, while i stay at my parents’ home to try to recuperate (read: sleep).

inbetween bouts of consciousness and swigs of nyquil, i plan to read poetry and scribble in my moleskin notebook. i’ve got great plans for the coming year. i just need to stop coughing first.

  • I run a darling, friendly, little graphic design studio.
    I look on the bright side.
    I take photos. Lots of photos.
    I wish on stars and on websites.


  • I built my first web site 7 years ago and got 15 seconds of fame. (It changed my life.)
    I launched, then relaunched, an online magazine.
    I admitted to several embarrassing crushes.
    I consumed more bacon than any human should and lived to tell the tales.
