After being lost in shipping for three months, my laptop (a prize from “Make My Day“) finally showed up. It had “fallen off the truck,” between Hong Kong and New York, but IBM tried very hard to expedite its replacement. I plan to be in a coffee shop soon, playing Windows Solitaire, listening to my iPod, and thanking “Make My Day”.

Judy/Miami pictures are still in transit. I promise to put them up as soon as I get them. I know there are girls all over Virginia and Florida saying, “Who gives a @#$% about his laptop?!” Update 3PM: Diane and Lauren are mailing me photos tonight, so I will post them tomorrow.

My dear friend Kristen created the “Chump vs. Champ” theory on dating. She feels that in the relationship, someone is always the chump and the other person is the champ. For it to work out, the roles must switch from time to time. She advises that if you are a chump, consider pulling a champ move (not calling, sleeping with a coworker, etc.) If you are a champ, it might be in your interest to let yourself get chumped. Sound advice like this is why Kristen is happily married.
Kristen recently turned 30. She looks 18 and drinks Mountain Dew.
