Well, at least I still have a job. (That's a popular refrain these days, isn't it?) However...
Many of my coworkers became ex- today. And I've been working 12-hour days for the past three weeks on a book that might be canceled.
Add to that: The economy's in the toilet, and we've started a war that seems destined to become my generation's Vietnam.
Ugh. I could go on, but... Ugh.

Posted by: babyboomer on March 28, 2003 7:37 AMI see your "ugh" and up you three "grrrs." I hate the media, I hate the war, and I hate today. :-) That's a smily for me because there's nothing else to do but, well, smile. Ugh!

since my computer refuses to comply with justas a legit email address, i am reduced to contacting you in this "shudder" public forum but since the government knows everything about me but my shoe size anyway, what the hell.
so, write me back at and i'll fill you in on my nefarious request( not really "nefarious" but it's such an english major kinda word and i haven't used it in a long time).
i hear, via the bluehill-vine, that you went to your high school reunion. that's worth a column or two, i bet.
love,
nicole
