jeffy here is lucky. he gets to go see dave eggers. while dave eggers is going to be right here in st. paul, i don’t think i can go. why? because there is a likely appearance by jeff johnson. and really, i just don’t feel like seeing him and taking stock in my life and making unfavorable comparisons.

i could probably go and he wouldn’t even notice me. i don’t know how big the place is or anything. but i am not sure which would stink more him noticing me or not noticing me. or what if he does notice me and doesn’t say anything. what if he does notice me and say something and ask me how i am? gah. can you see the stress?

archie (that’s not his real name, i just call him that because he’s my arch-nemisis) said i should go and when he asks me what i am doing tell him that i write all the web content for a multi-million dollar software corporation. yeah. only a republican like archie would think that sounds infinitely cooler than writing for Jane Magazine and hanging out with dave eggers. blah!
