Where the Hell is Danielle?
Yes, “Where the Hell is Danielle” is even the name of a jam my bandmates like to play when I’m running late for practice. Other than that, I thought I’d fill you guys in a bit on what I’ve been up to (and what I’ve been neglecting) over the past few weeks.
The unfun news is that I’ve been sick for over two weeks now, and since I am the kind of person who gets a lot of joy from socializing I’ve been pretty unhappy. No events, no juicy writeups, no coffee with promising entrepreneurs around Seattle. Yeah, pretty boring. I think my Twitter following is slowly declining (or at least has stopped growing). Such is life.
However, in my little cave (actually my big green and white Martha Stewart couch) I’ve been voraciously reading many of the books, periodicals, and blogs I’d been putting off — not to mention an unsightly backlog of “someday maybe” emails. It feels good to consume more than I produce, content wise, for a little while. Don’t fret though, I’ve already got myriad plans for my return both personally and professionally. Professionally? Well, my personal and professional passions just happen to (ha! like that was luck!) cross frequently and I look forward to bringing back the witty blog posts (more public ones!), videos, event coverage, witty banter, drink tabs, and whatever else it is that makes me a fun person to be around (80% of the time). You heard it from me first, I’ll be back in the saddle really soon.
There are plenty of fun event cooking, despite the volatile markets (up 6% today, down 4% tomorrow?!), and some things I’m looking forward to include:
- Feeling better
- Steak for Thanksgiving (Kev hates turkey)
- My facial at Red on Saturday
- Seeing “You Can’t Take it With You” at Seattle Rep, with Raviv
- Hosting the “Ugly Christmas Sweater” Party
- Tons of holiday parties, too many to list here but they include booze, Danish food, and mistletoe
- Twiistup (LA) in February
- South By Southwest (Austin) in March.
So I’m really looking forward to rejoining the world, and I know I’ll be covering events on a regular basis over at Seattle 2.0 soon. I’ve even got video footage of Clark Kockitch from Entrepreneur University that still needs to be posted!
