an uneventful evening last night — i stayed home and read and watched state and main while my roommates went out with dustin’s friend scott from colorado — and un uneventful morning — i got to work 15 minutes early and still haven’t done anything substantial — both mean that i haven’t much to say.

i did hear back from my friend lynn though, who lives in new york and who is a splendid person. and after hearing nothing for two months, that’s quite a big deal to me. so that makes me happy in a way that looking up information regarding the passing on of african american heritage for my boss never could, even if it’s the latter that needs attending in the employment-related capacity. why can’t i just be in my living room finishing my book right now?

because, brian, you have to earn it.
