Friday, July 04, 2003 Before I actually get in the shower and officially start the day and before I blog every detail of yesterday's party, I must admit I am totally in LOVE with ... the work of a cartoonist! I woke up this morning (sort of), reached for the iBook that's always resting on my bed and always on (no man can compete) and started surfing. And then magic happened! This guy's website is an absolute must. I just had to send him a quick note and thank him for his brilliance. Oh, the thrill of discovering a mind you can relate to so strongly! It happens so seldom but when it does, it kicks ass. And I LOVE his cartoons, they are everything I like in art. So immediate, so straight to the point, so no bullshit. He wrote this and I so wish I had ... So you're going out a lot. Pretty soon you're going out too much. Parties. Bars. More parties. More bars. So you decide to cut back a bit, y'know, start living like a normal person. So you trade in those wild & crazy times for delivered Chinese food, Forbes Magazine and Seinfeld reruns. You're just going to try it for a couple of weeks, and see how it feels. After all, this is a "new you" we're talking about. A better you. A saner you. A wiser, more sensible and compelling you. But you know in your heart of hearts that you didn't move from suburban Cleveland/Denver/Pittsburgh/Whatever to a $3000-a-month Manhattan apartment just to watch Seinfeld. In New York, you always think that if you try harder, work longer hours, make more money, spend more time at the gym, put more effort into networking, read more books, go to bed earlier, drink less booze, avoid negative people, listen more attentively to your friends and colleagues, eat more vegetables and stop smoking so many damn cigarettes you will eventually be able pull off that great Miracle Of Miracles: to be able to live in Manhattan while simulatneously leading a healthy, satisfying, productive, emotionally-balanced life.
