Here's the short version: payday, get household necessities, pay rent, be broke. Go to Tully's, enjoy chai tea, meet up with Tom Hyde. Come home, sleep, wake up, go to grandma's and get online, shit out quick blog post about something awesome that I totally stole from somewhere else. I'll get a bit more into one of those now:
After the (mildly snark, but overall pleasant) "review" of my blog over at Olympia Views, photographer Tom Hyde shot me an email wanting to meet up and chat a bit. So, we arranged to hang out at Tully's yesterday, and spent an enjoyable hour (ish) talking about some mutual acquaintances, and things about Grays Harbor. Some of it was what we wanted to see out of the Harbor, or what we enjoyed here, and I did something that felt just as douchey as I always figured it would -- I gave him a business card.
In my defense, it's the first time I've given one to someone, and I got 100 "minicards" from Moo.com as a Klout perk. All they really have is my contact info, and the address for this site. It was easier than either of us getting out phones and programming numbers.
Yesterday was a good day, though. I'm mostly broke now, but I had a nice chat with Tom, wore jeans for the first time in about ten years, and the weather was great. For a while, I couldn't wipe a smile off of my face because it just felt like a great day. It's been a while since I had one of those unbeatable good moods, and I hope it happens again soon. :D
