i’m giving an important talk at “internet explorers” on saturday 10/9

first off, i learned how to type “smart quotes” at work yesterday. i gotta be honest, it’s an awful lot of work!

secondly, i let andy pick my next nail color and he requested "emerald green" and added "metallic." the only one i could find at duane reade was "combustealable" (dumb name) by sally hansen. i'm super impressed by the miracle gel formula, zero chips after 3 days! i may buy more colors, but i'll also use a different brush because the one it comes with is awful.

"disco gumby" is what i'm calling it from now on

thirdly of all, i'm giving a talk this saturday at internet explorers: one night only big tech bonanza! hosted by my dear pal and partner-in-tech-humor-crimes, mark vigeant, i'll be joining a lineup of experts and comedians to use laughter as a defense mechanism against the horrors of big tech – by the way, wild week we're having, huh?

it should be a fun show, and it's my first speaking event in a very long time. i am contractually obligated by my own brain and ego not to tell you what i'm talking about, but if you're on the fence about coming, maybe this photo of mark and i demoing my game "apology hero: the game" at a past show will convince you...

...or not!
