B cannot figure out our whole transition to movable type fast enough for me-- this site is in desperate need of a more simplistic update mechanism. And the idea of being able to extract all of the whirlygirl content from the past 6 years, apply metatags, and make it searchable seems way too good to be true. B got the whole MT thing up and running this weekend but the content extraction seems like an insurmountable task-- something requiring a budget and project plan and resources to execute. Or at the very least the surrender of a month of Sundays. Ick.

But in more hopeful news, I'm reconnecting with Bruce tomorrow for coffee under such coincidental circumstances. Funny to think that just over five years ago Bruce was kicking my ass in order to get me to market myself and find a new job. Next thing I know there's an email from him sitting in my inbox for a year(s!) and I don't have his most recent home address for Christmas card greetings. Now our paths cross again. Almost like running into Jim post-tour-of-China at the Douglas Coupland reading. Thankfully, there are just some people we can't shake-- in the best possible way.

Oh... and a new mattress! Complete move-in! Promotion! Oh my. The stories I could tell... if my battery wasn't about to die.
