Checking In

Hi all. I am fine. A quick update - I spent the last several months shutting down San Francisco operations of TechTV. Friday July 30 was my last day and the business is now officially in LA. Comcast made me a last minute job offer in LA but at that point I had already psychologically had myself here. I have to admit that having spent many weeks in LA over the past months, I am starting to understand some of the appeal. Still, I have never gotten as much attitude as I did at the Wilshire Blvd Whole Foods store. What up with that??? I'm here buying the brown rice sushi and Fuji water just like you sister!

My plans are to take off the month of August and get my head together on what to do next. The job market in my field seems better and the severance from Comcast was decent so I am not sweating it yet. I will go to Michigan to see family in the next few weeks.

For those keeping track, things with JB have ended. I spent most of May and June making myself sick wrestling with the idea of moving to Atlanta. Ultimately, it was something I couldn't bring myself to commit to. Once JB understood I wasn't coming, he chose to distance himself and we have not spoken. It wasn't an easy decision and August is as much about wrapping my head around what just happened as anything.

On the literary front, I am reading several books now and over the weekend started Al Franken's Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them. It has me positively seething with anger!! I have been tuning in to Fox News on occassion just to see their spin. Last night it was Laura Bush all softly lit and dressed in red talking about being a devoted wife who keeps her opinion to herself since "my husband was voted into the oval office, not me". Bill O"Reilly is tossing her softball questions and fawning over her to the point of almost falling out of his chair. He refers to himself as a journalist and then gushes about what a great job W is doing and how divided the country is over issues like gay marriage. Two sentences later he mentions gay marriage again, this time to be sure the audience knows the "Liberals" support gay marriage. This guy knows how to use a wedge issue. Seething!!!

mini tutorial

ok, so a few days ago, Boyer had a legitimate beef about creating links from blogger. Seems blogger has taken away its easy links function. But no fear, here are some codes to use.

when making a link to a word in text, use this coding:

(a href="http://www.websitenamegoeshere.com")link word or words here(/a)

... pretend that the ( and ) in this example are actually chevrons <>. I cannot write the code that way because it would create a real link!

the coding must be exact, or it ain't workin. Once you click on Publish Post, blogger will give ya an error msg if something is missing, etc.

for a photo, use:

(img src="image link goes here" /)

again with the parenthesis subbing for the chevrons ...
