So the past few days have been fucking amazing. Friday night some lovely things happened of which I am not at liberty to share, but take it from me, I was happy!
Then on Sunday, I reconciled with my best friend from college, who I have been estranged from for many, many years. Our lives are completely different, and yet we share almost ALL the same values. I have missed her so much, and am glad that things are in the past. Lesson learned: communication is the most vital thing in a friendship and don't avoid conflict. Conflict is necessary to work through the crap that happens in ALL relationships. The pain comes from avoiding the conflict.
And finally, yesterday. Of course, everyone knows that I finally got my iPhone. What you may not be aware of is the smokin' hot 25 year-old Lebanese AT&T employee that sold it to me, Wally. Wow. Youth does have its advantages, especially on him. He made my iPhone experience that much better. I wish there was some way that I can repay him? (MILF-O-Gram?)
Finally, yesterday I was copied in a email that an aquaintance of mine sent about a documentary he is helping to produce about evolution, kind of a response to Expelled. So I was copied in an email that also was sent to just about every freaking scientist who is a hero of mine, including Richard Dawkins, Neil Shubin, PZ Myers, Daniel Dennett, and Michael Shermer. But it gets better.
All of those scientists responded to my friend's email, and instead of reply, they hit reply all. That's right folks, my inbox yesterday had messages from all of those scientists. HOLY CRAP, in a roundabout fashion, RICHARD DAWKINS SENT ME AN EMAIL. Ironically, it was almost enough to make me believe in God.
And the truly geeky thing I did? I put all of them, ALL OF THEM, as contacts in my iPhone. Because that is just how geeky and fanboyish I am.
