Happy birthday, Klovharu. The above is a picture of Little Daddy Gibson, on his second birthday. Can you see the family resemblance? Fuck you!That was rude. I apologize. I'm wound up on account of having to prepare a presentation for a class tomorrow. Which I've finished. Preparing. Finally. But it was rough going.
I got some things in the mail. You know how I love Lynda Barry? I got a piece of Lynda Barry artwork for my birthday, but actually long after my birthday for postal reasons. It's an outake from 100 Demons. You can see where she used White-Out on a comma. I'm totally in love with it.
Also, out of the thin blue air, Jacob sent me a copy of One Hundred Years of Solitude. No, I've never read it, but now I will. Wasn't that great of him? Stand up and take a bow, Jacob. Give him a hand, folks.
Can you tell how tired I am? Can you tell how I'm drooping and shuddering despite my gratitude for unexpected packages and completed presentation preparations? I don't know why I'm so goddamn tired.

Go Clairey go! Soon it will be over. Please come over this weekend and play with Sachi.
Also are you coming to Lisa Robertson on Friday?
Yo beeez-nitch! Where you been at?
Sachi - I totally want to come over this weekend, and totally will. As for L.R., I'm almost tempted to go, but I'm kind of CrWr departmented-out. That, and she scares me with her brain smarts. I've already made a fool of myself in front of her once, damn it. Not that she'd remember that (please god), but still.
Kim - I've been locked in a padded room, surrounded by first-drafts and cups of tea. And dog hair. How are things in your woods of the neck?
DAMNIT COME AND CONGRATULATE ME.
I will tell you in an email. A TOP SECRET email.
