I had the pleasure of spending both Friday and Saturday nights each with a close friend and, while I thoroughly enjoyed my time, both nights left me with the same feeling, albeit expressed in two different ways.

Similar theme from both nights: We all need to move on, to find that which truly drives us, and since we’re all able, capable people, our skills, talents and dedication will see us safely through. In the specific case, I need to do some real work in finding that path.

Divergent theme from both nights: I should (a) work on the Next Great American Novel and continue writing and editing, or (b) get serious about this law school business.

Either way, it’s something to work on.

News of the day: Apple to move to Intel chips. Yes, I’m a geek. Apple is (most likely) going to announce tomorrow that it’s changing its chipset from the PowerPC line to Intel processors, which is going to create some sticky issues – if you can trust the Wall Street Journal and News.com. Given my rant of a few days ago on problems in reporting, that may not be a safe bet. For a slightly more detailed discussion of the matter, make sure to read John Gruber’s brilliant discussion of the matter.
