The most important thing I have learned over the years is the difference between taking one's work seriously and taking one's self seriously. The first is imperative, and the second disastrous.

psst! microsoft sucks. you're welcome.
so, i got a G5. problem was, i previously had an old, old, OLD pc running outlook express, with thousands of saved emails on the hard drive.
well, no problem, right? microsoft makes entourage for OSX, and it's essentially the exact same goddam thing as outlook express, so it would make SENSE that entourage could read the little .dbx files used by outlook express, right?
exACTly. it would make sense. which is why microsoft didn't make it possible.
assholes.
but, there is a way. much glory and praise goes to the people at o'reilly, who have once again made my life much, much easier.

this is a little late, but whatever. a conversation between ben and me while waiting for the (incredible, wonderful, delightful) rufus wainwright concert to begin at the lisner auditorium on november 20th:
ben: look at all those tattoos on that boy's arms.
me: yeah. pretty cool.
ben: they look really good on him.
me: FINE! i'll get a bunch of tattoos!
ben: hmm?
me: JUST DON'T LEAVE ME!!!
ben: aw, honey, you'd never let me do that.
