Okay, these are two pretty unrelated stories, except that they both address what journalists who report on tough stuff have to deal with.
First, some good news:
In Mexico, where journalists who report on crime are regularly threatened, attacked, and killed, the Senate finally approved a…
“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.” Steve Jobs from Stanford commencement speech, June 2005

I’ve been blogged about! I’m getting the Web 2.0 shivers here. Social media is real after all!
I’ve been featured on Cover Me as one of this week’s best covers on Bandcamp, for my cover of On Melancholy Hill by The Gorillaz. Needless to say, I’m pretty stoked.
Watch this space to see me rocket into the stratosphere of web hype!
Typing a quick post while I should be packing to go back to SF.
Kinda want to post a lot on here. But this blog is dead anyway.

Just got back from the gym :)
Roughly a 25 minute run.
The treadmill I first got on was glitchy and died like every 3 minutes. So I kept running and dealing with the glitches until the treadmill next to me was free and then I hopped on that one and ran for 15 minutes at 7. Then the last minute I pumped it up to 12. Damn it killed me.
Then I hit the pool and treaded water for like 15 minutes.
Overall a good workout sesh. Should do some arm workouts next time.
Going to do some Pilates tomorrow.
I’ve gotten into the groove of drinking a cappuccino almost daily. I realize that this habit is unhealthy. So I’m quitting caffeine. Today wasn’t that bad. It took a LONG time to wake up this morning though.
