2:37 AM samantha.sterling: how do you find these people?
2:42 AM me: this one e-mailed me after seeing an article of mine on Daily Kos
2:43 AM then I called him back and we parlayed
samantha.sterling: i see
me: I don't think he's going to be that helpful
samantha.sterling: they can't all be winners
me: nope indeed-nopy
2:44 AM samantha.sterling: what are you up to?
2:45 AM me: writing a piece regarding the press conference that Wikileaks is holding tomorrow
but also with a sort of attached essay
2:47 AM samantha.sterling: and the essay is about?
2:50 AM me: sorry, was away from comp
on the crucial nature of the intel-agencies-and-governments-and-other-centers-of-power...
2:51 AM or rather
2:53 AM the struggle between those and the individuals who seek to learn as much about the centers of power as possible, as well as the general populace which would be less supportive of a particular a given center of power were they to know more about it
2:54 AM samantha.sterling: naturally. i was hoping you would say something easy like ice cream
:)
2:55 AM me: and how we're seeing a point in this struggle now that is by far the most crucial yet, and which has extraordinary implications for the planet's future at a time when both dangers and opportunities are unprecedented
that all being the efforts to make Iceland a haven for illegal information
2:56 AM which Wikileaks is assisting in
samantha.sterling: actually sounds pretty interesting, if a bit heavy for 3am
2:58 AM me: how was your day?
2:59 AM samantha.sterling: fine thanks. didn't do much. went out for dinner, came home, didn't do much again.
3:08 AM samantha.sterling: my cat is pissed off at me
3:09 AM he seems to think that the 14-16 hours a day he sleeps isn't enough and when i woke him from his latest nap, he meowed at me in a timbre that i've not heard in long time, followed by a death stare
3:10 AM me: that sounds like an asshole cat
samantha.sterling: he's not
3:11 AM he's usually quite fantastic
3:19 AM samantha.sterling: bedtime. sweet dreams :) if you ever get to sleep, that is
3:20 AM me: you too, night night
