Dateline:above the garage in Portsmouth RI, 24 March 2005
Finished the edit of Chapter 2 today. Ended up being almost 24k, so not much smaller than 1.
Rest of day lost in various phonecalls on Esquire assignment (fascinating), talking with Mark on the book, quick interview to French journalist (Le Point), and sit-down with United Van Lines rep to estimate cost of move to IN (plenty less than I had budgeted, so pretty happy with that one).
Feel cold coming on in throat.
Wanted to blog long interview I gave to US News reporter earlier in week on China (please watch for that story), plus various weird things written (blog quoted in one DC newspaper), U. Berkeley story on me, and something else.
But . . . screw it . . . Kev just came up and pointed to clock. Promised kids we'd watch Monty Python's "Meaning of Life."
Hmmm. Meaning of life. I'm almost certain it isn't found here in my blog . . .
Night.
