Sorry I've fallen off the face of the planet. I just finished Spring 1 at my school which is like a mini semester. So the last couple weeks I was trying to finish papers and projects. Now I'm on break and will be going back for Spring 2 next week. This week I'm going to catch up on emails.
yeah!

hi cheng...you're super. :-) you're getting an email soon, too. but maybe i'll answer one of your questions online cuz maybe others wonder too.
Why am I a sad optimist? It's funny, I've gotten lots of different responses to this title. Some say, "ohh...clever". One of my fav responses is my friend's husband's comment of, "joyce, don't call yourself that...guys don't like that. call yourself the sexy optimist. you don't want some moody artist guy do you?" haha Of course, my response to this is complete incredulity! Um, his totally faulty premise being i'm doing this to meet men! haha! What a goof ball!
Other people have said, "uh, joyce, that sounds too sad." and I'm like hello what about the "optimist" part.
anyway, back to why I chose the title....um, hmmmmm. i think it's a lot about poetry....i don't feel right explaining why but you interpret in the way you want.
haha! how is that for an explanation! i thought i'd have a more concrete answer than that.
i wonder if LA's "clean" toilets have anything to do with the oversupply of low-wage workers we have? and thanks for the email...i loved reading it.
love,
happy pessimist.
