Just a Gwai Lo - fun within prescribed limits

I'm looking at my 43 People calendar and it says I was in Vancouver, Changchun, Seattle, Reykjavik, Ottawa, Beijing, Portland, Toronto, The Robot Co-op Office, and Bend, Oregon in the month of June this year. It also says I think London is not worth visiting. Except that I was in Changchun in 2000, Reykjavik several years ago, Ottawa and Toronto in March, Portland in August, and Bend a few years ago. I definitely added them in June 2005 as places I had visited.

Further, I don't necessarily think London, Australia, the Oregon Coast, Moderne Burger in Vancouver, and San Francisco are not worth visiting. In fact, I've never been to any of those places. (I've probably been to San Francisco, but I only remember Oakland.) I'm sure it's an easy fix, making it say "not yet visited" instead of a judgment I have no right to make.

The thing it gets right is that I've "Marked as met" the people listed there. It's also a good display of what I was thinking about at the time, though it was also wrapped up in the fact that 43 Things/Places/People were new to me this year. I'm just not the jet setter it makes me out to be.

I want to assure all those wondering why 2005 was only 90% worth living that it feels like it was 100%. It's entirely possible that I simply misplaced 10% of it along the way, however.
