Fairly productive day. Applied for some jobs online, got lots of work done on the SxSW section (almost there!!). This is what happens when you’re awake at 7:00 am. Later, I even rented The Great Escape DVD but fell asleep after about 40 minutes. This is what happens when you’re awake at 7:00 am. Hope you caught my April Fool’s page. I’m too lazy to archive it, though. It was something about monkeys.

Busy
I’m sorry I haven’t been updating. Busy with so many things. Applying for unemployment benefits, preparing resumes, emailing old contacts. I’m also working (still!) on my SxSW recollections. Please be patient. I’ll try to have something more interesting here tonight.
Good site explaining the
Good site explaining the Myers-Briggs Type Inventory (MBTI). I’ve officially tested as an ENFP, but the E/I was really close. I expect my introversion and extraversion will be fighting each other to the death. (via Tim)
I also wholeheartedly agree with what Tim said about Steven Soderbergh’s Oscar acceptance speech. Hear hear!
Oscars 2001
Oscars were good last night. Glad to see that Traffic won most of its nominations, although it should have taken Best Picture, too, in my opinion. Steven Soderbergh is the best director working today. I got to see him in person at the Toronto International Film Festival in 1996, after a screening of his film Schizopolis, a film he credits with opening him up creatively. Check it out if you can, it’s a bit of a funhouse mirror. I thought Steve Martin was great, too, making lots of cutting remarks about Hollywood. He also moved things along well. It was nice to have the show end before midnight (Eastern Standard Time) for a change.
Today I begin my job search. Also, have to finish the SXSW section. So no shortage of things to do for this man of newfound leisure.
