why is your website down and over with?

[below_the_belt]

because it wasn't professional enough to be taken seriously, and every time i tried to change stuff i realized i didn't know exactly what i wanted to do with it, why i had it. so i took it down. it stressed me out a lot to have it up there where anyone could read it and i felt like i was making a lot of claims i couldn't live up to.

and i thought about how in two years i'll be able to do something much much better, but in the meantime it's kinda irresponsible of me to do something so half-assed.

I found this on Craigslist, Yonah. Is this you?

Looking for Yona, Jona or Iona (I'm not sure how you spell your name...)
We met briefly at H&M on Chestnut and 16th (or is it 17th?)this past Saturday, Nov. 10.

You approached me because I was wearing keffiyeh and you asked if it was out of political or fashion motivation. We then talked about my indecision to make a purchase.

I thought you were really nice and I would like to somehow get in touch with you. I haven't lived in Philly long and I don't know many people. I would have asked then but I was flustered and I am a bit shy. Hope this isn't weird and we can become friends!

thanks for looking out!
hey how and where are you these days?

Wow, you're quick! Good.

I am okay and I am in Philadelphia. Sometimes when I think about health and medicine I think about you, by the way. Take care!!

andrea.
somehow i always need this image from you and then lose it again. but:
do you have the 'uterus is a muscle the size of your fist' image anywhere? i want to put it on a fact sheet about ovarian cancer for school tomorrow. but, y'know, without the words. is that a workable thing?

[ellebeowe]

you have good taste! I'm adding you!

[below_the_belt]

Aw shucks. Thanks. Are you an RN now, working on your NP? That's what it looks like.. ! I'm halfway through a two-year RN/ADN program. It's amazing but there are minimal homos. As you might imagine.

[ellebeowe]

No, actually, I just declined my acceptance to Drexel for their acelerated RN program, in hopes to get into somewhere cheaper and more my style next june. I worked at an abortion clinic for 3 years and now work as a health educator for HIV and STD's.

And homo's.... From what i hear not so present in nursing! How do you deal?!

[fairymere]
