grrr…i hate email viruses. my home account is getting spammed by the latest “W32.Sircam” virus which sends email out to every person in one’s address book, randomly attaches a file from someone’s computer and says Hi! How are you? I send you this file in order to have your advice. See you later. Thanks” What a dumb message. Of course, I–like many other dumb people–happened to open up the very first one that I got and was suddenly reading someone’s cover letter to get an acting gig. That teaches me not to check my email late at night when I could care less about what email I get. Anyhow, I…

ah, the weather has been absolutely beautiful. to celebrate independence day, james invited me to go sailing on a boat with his friend goldie from work, her boyfriend and some other people down in tacoma–my first time on an actual sailboat. we went down there around noon and were on the boat until midnight—>see my pictures. mount rainier looked incredible down there and the air show was tons of fun to see. i just sat back, soaking in the rays and enjoyed the gorgeous day. i’m starting to feel much better and am able to move around a bit more. i even made it to salsa class with jon on…
