P.S.

#1 - Internet freedom allows you to play with colors and fonts and layout. Do you like the new format?  

#2 - This weekend is my 10-year college reunion. I so wish I could be in two places at once -- alas! 
Thanks to my girls for the pic.     

It's the little things

When we left San Francisco, we knew we wouldn't be able to access beloved sites like Facebook, Hulu and Netflix, but we were also told that, like most things in China, there were work-arounds. A few days after we arrived, I figured out a temporary work-around (hence why I'm currently able to blog and Facebook and stream videos and surf as I please -- just like at home). Internet freedom!  

Upon seeing my Facebook News Feed finally load, I screeched in excitement. It's strange how something seemingly insignificant can have such an effect on a person. I had thought, "No Facebook? No big deal." But not really. And it's not Facebook itself, it's the mere fact that I couldn't access it when I knew it was there, when I was able to just a week ago. Why should I be blocked from my websites when I didn't do anything wrong? I'm an American, damn it.  ;)  

Because this is a temporary fix, I may not post again for a while. Forgive me. Be patient. And watch this video because you can.
