The dates they are a changing...



Tell me astory about me and you and I know how it will end, happily ever after, just like it will begin. And I'll show you a happy boy and a girl if you show me a picture of me and you...

Leaving is fine.



But this prolonged goodbye period is unsettling. I left my job, I left my apartment, I'm starting the goodbye process with my friends. I'll be saying goodbye to my family throughout the next three weeks.



In the kitchen a few days ago I said something about San Francsico and my mother randomly teared up. "It's going to be a long month," I told her.



But it will be a short month, I fear. Saturday I'm off to Ann Arbor. I will finally get to look into his eyes again.



Then I'm back, but ping-ponging from friend to family to dinners to movies. Perhaps a quick trip to Baltimore for a party next weekend? We'll see.



It may not be a long month, but it will be a tough month. June 23rd is nearing.

I'm so tempted to post a picture here ...
One hour to go.



Farewell lunch. Farewell party with cake. Early hug from Selean.



Sigh.
My last story for DiversityInc.com is about the concern among Asian-American organizations that "Pearl Harbor" may spur anti-Asian sentiment since it's such a highly emotional issue. Go read it (no linkie, sorry). But I talk a bit about come of the changes Disney made to the version of the film that will run in Japan. Check this out.

OH MY GOD.



Tomorrow is my last day at work. This is way insane.



Tonight, a big group of us are going out to dinner and to the martini bar to get me liquored up. I feel so loved.

All I have to say is: UNACCEPTABLE.



Buffy, what have you done? Why do you taunt me with this obviously impossible cliffhanger?



You see, the problem with this show, and all shows with bad guys, is there's too much talk. In this show, the dialogue is exceptional, but if the bad guys would stop showboating and just kill people, they'd be much more effective. Similarly, if Dawn had just thrown herself off the ... thing, then my darling Buffy wouldn't be pseudo dead.
