let's push those photos down a bit, shall we?

I think you've all been staring at Chris's disgusting finger for long enough! It's healing nicely, for those who have inquired.

It's been two weeks since I was employed 9–5, and I have done the following things:

  • attended an excellent editing seminar, 8-Step Editing
  • joined the Editor's Association of Canada
  • read much of the Canadian Press Stylebook, Strunk & White's Elements of Style, and Getting the Words Right
  • applied for some jobs
  • tried to figure out HOW to network, as this is the advice everyone gives me
  • slept (a LOT)
  • made Ada ride Linda's cat, Max
  • called Christopher at work to tell him that there was a purring cat half-asleep on my lap, to get him back for all those times he slept in when I had to go to work
  • watched The Usual Suspects with David and Beckie
  • made Christopher walk me home because Agnes and Sam kept feeding me tequila shots between rounds of gin and tonic and whatever Agnes could find in the house
  • tried not to fear unemployment and to remember that this is the part that sucks and that things will improve from here
  • thought about my website, and decided to keep Faith Dissolved

heather ann, nice to see that chris is healing, and you're getting good stuff done. those pictures were disturbing to me. once he's well enough to type again, do you think you can ask him to send me that picture he took of me at your birthday, i know someone who wants to see it? may i print it?

I'm glad you are keeping FD. I've read it back and forth, and it is a very raw, honest and completely real diary of your journey. Salinger would be proud.
