Hey, just to forestall anyone making any effort on my behalf, I believe I've found some gainful employment for the time being. It seems the world of CivicSpace and the broader Drupal community is booming. Looks like being in on the ground floor is paying dividends. And you thought sweat-equity was for suckers.

In other news, I've been watching the HBO TV series Deadwood on DVD, which is proving to be another fine example of how the telenovela form is finally breaking into the US market. It's a good show. I tried it out mainly because my man Frank recommended it a while back and because it popped up in my mother's netflix. I got the first disc off there and ended up getting the second two last night at Blockbuster because I wanted to keep the story rolling. That's a mark of a good drama.

I'm planning on absorbing a lot of media while I'm here in Oregon. That will include some books, a lot of back issues of Harpers, the New Yorker and the Atlantic Monthly. After being on the road all summer I feel the need to swim in the waters of other people's creativity for a while. It helps me recharge my batteries.
