Winter is rolling in with pitch black evenings and cold gusts of wind. Lately I’ve been wishing that my spam-box was my in-box. Today, for instance, I have the following email subjects in my spam folder:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Don’t settle for what you can afford!
\nLasik special starting at $299- Schedule your free evaluation now!
\nAre you looking for some fun?
\nIs good Men & Girl<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I don’t know what the last one is, but the other three are very appealing. Well, maybe I wouldn’t get Lasik surgery from a place that spammed me, but I am looking for some fun and sick of settling for what I can afford. Are there people who respond to these emails? Could it be that they are the real deal and I’m actually being suckered by my cynicism? I think I smell an informal survey coming…<\/p>\n

In other news, this week begins awards season in my industry. Wednesday and Thursday are local parties, then in early December I go to LA for more parties. I’m trying to stay positive and confident- I’ve lost 20 pounds now and have been working hard at work. I have nothing to fear…except some one asking me when I’m planning on having children. Or remembering that I was pregnant but not knowing what happened. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\nCan I get little cards printed up with a short version of the story and hand them out to people who ask me uncomfortable questions? Actually, wait, I think that’s a really really good idea. I probably won’t even have to use them, they’ll just be like a social safety harness. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
