i decided just now to start a blog, because i'm irritated and wanted to write about it somewhere. i don't keep track of my journal very well because it's so tedious writing anything in longhand, and i don't usually want to turn on my computer by the time i get home. i'm hoping that this will be a way to keep myself writing.

so here's what's irritating me: it seems that i need to do more than just dump a guy these days - i need to dump his mailing list. this morning i got TWO mass distribution emails from exes. as i think about it, i realize that i am on distribution lists for at least 4 ex boyfriends, and that i'm doomed to stay in touch forever with their comings and goings, gigs and vacation plans.

there's probably a deliciously snarky "tech and the city" column in here but i haven't the patience to write it or the persistence to pitch it. that's going to be the theme of this blog - great ideas that i have for articles that i'm too lazy to write and too disenfranchised to get published.
