The Slow Hunch by Nick GrossmanYou Never Know When You've Had a Good Day
Many years ago, when I had just started working at USV, I remember there was kind of a complicated situation that unfolded in a seemingly bad way, and I'll never forget what Brad said in response. He said:you never know when you've had a good dayI didn't really understand what that meant, so he told me a story that went something like: back around the year 2000 at the height of the dot-com boom, there was a guy who was a senior exec at a successful startup. That person had a falling out with ...

In some small way, I feel like I arrived as a member of the internet today. Joi took some photos of me, which are now in his stream (along with photos of countless other internet heroes of mine). Thanks to Jess for making me smile and laugh as we got going. I am terrible in photographs. I always feel like I look stiff and awkward, and don't look like my real self. It's part of the reason why I use my simpsons avatar for everything. A whole lot of the photos Joi took just now look that way too, of course, but there were a few good ones which feel pretty real and comfortable to me (especially b/c I'm rocking my Chicken Adidas shirt). So, now I have a few real photographs of myself to use for important things like blog posts about those photographs :)
