From WAYYYY up:
I knew Ron Goldman, several years prior to his murder. He dated a friend of mine and we all used to hang out at his home. He worked an after school Y program with my high school BFF and he was SO good with kids. It was adorable. He was cocky and funny and smart. My heart still breaks for his family.
That is SO wild! I was looking him up on Google a few years back and found out that his girlfriend (I think they'd broken up right before the murder) Jacquie was one of my best friends when I lived in LA and worked at the Beverly Center! She had moved to LA from Missouri in order to act and model (one of her pics is STILL the cover of a drugstore hair color box, I always smile when I see it) and we worked at the Units (!) store together. I moved back to the Bay Area and lost touch with her but found on the Ron Goldman site and Google tells me she's now a realtor in Pacific Palisades.
Life is funny. But it gave me a whole new appreciation for Ron, because there were pics of the two of them on the site and they were both so radiant and happy looking. No pics, but this article mentions her. It's so sad. I hate that he is rarely spoken about as one of that rat bastard's murder victims.

It must be just horrible for families and loved ones of victims that do not get justice. I'm kind of a hold a grudge personality so that would be weighty.
Timelies all!
Didn't watch the debate. After Arrow was done I watched last week's Agents of Shield, then went to bed. Much more relaxing.
Hahaha, ouch! This morning I sneezed and threw my back into spasm. The only thing good about it happening today is that I had a massage booked for tonight. Sabrina, my masseuse is magical, but it's still pretty tight.
Kick ass, woman!
I'm definitely trying to!
Second interview went very well, the exec and I really connected. It's kind of ~more than I really want to do, but the experience is great.
Ouch, Sue. Take it easy.
Good to hear your awesomeness was recognized, esse. Love the new name, when I say it in my head I pronounce it right, but with an inflection that makes it sound like sassy.
While on the way after work to the consignment place to fill out paperwork so they'd come pick up furniture at our house next week before the movers come, the credit card company called and asked if I had made purchases at an Orlando Walmart.
I had not.
Yesterday, carpal tunnel. Today, credit card fraud. I'm taking bets on what tomorrow will bring.
Ha! Awesome. It was either that or "essay," which, no.

I pronounced it as it would have been spoken in the predominantly Chicano high school I attended.
Very cool indeed.
You would not believe how many people (men) say, "Heyyyyyy, ese!" Upon being introduced to me.
It does act as a pretty clear indication of the type of person I'm speaking with, though.
