TASP 2003 at UT Austin: The Mystery of Creativity



reasonably remarkable



Wednesday, December 29, 2004
So I've abstained from the internet for ten days now and am now sorting through a flood of Christmas greetings and virtual snowball fight ecards (who started that thing anyway? it's so annoyingly addictive!), and at the same time trying to send out mass emails confirming that I'm alive and well: while the earthquake and its aftereffects hit everything in the area and managed to move Sumatra by 37 meters, it just so happened to miss the Philippines. I was vegetating at the beach while it happened and watched it on the news later, and came home well-rested. Thank God for the Indochine penninsula.

John, as flattered as I am, I can't take credit for the blog - we all helped keep it up. :)

The past few days have looked like this for me, and I'm attaching the photo with hope that it'll brighten your winters for those of you who are not Aimee or Tara (as to the extent of my knowledge Kelsey and Jared have ditched California for colder places):



Happy New Year!
