it's 11:40pm and i have a client meeting at 8am, but you know what? i know this sounds pretentious, but i sleep better and don't wake up as tired when the reason i stayed up late was because i was writing.
shilpa moved to new york the same that jesse and i did—we all went to college together, and hung out a lot at first, not so much now. it happens, and i don't think there are hard feelings, and i was happy for her tonight. she'll be working with a south asian film festival in san francisco, and i think the work and city will suit her well; saw her off at bob with a funny crowd of roots and erykah badu-lite-esque black folks, mixed with a few kinda stussy japanese girls, mixed with the south asian american desi crowd that shilpa hangs with. unfortunately missed tina's birthday party, but from her guestlist, i think she had her hands full.
saw before night falls (beautiful. powerful. oh my goodness i'm in love with javier bardem's lips and hair and nose and hairy legs and voice) with mookie last night (but besides that, i wanna think about this movie some more and write more about it), unintentionally sacrificing my aim date with jami and dori during the world premier of temptation island. doh! by the way, check out homegirl's new piece, "head-turner." it's good shit, especially if you could hear her read it out loud. the night before i hung with both of them, which is where the timeshare idea fucked, conceived, and gestated.
a colleague/friend pointed me to bruce mau's an incomplete manifesto for growth. i like it because it diametrically opposes almost every facet of my job's product development process, business strategy, growth strategy, and work culture, and also because it holds a lot of principles that i could try to apply to my personal life. i like finding things like that, that can help shape a credo to live by.
