Friday
Had a really nice day today. Started with a 3 a.m. phone call from someone saying he missed me, went to the gym then went to work. Wrote awhile and then covered a visiting author at the middle school, Pseudonymous Bosch. He’s apparently a secret author. He didn’t take off his sunglasses at all during his presentation, which is certainly odd, but intriguing. I made friends with some 5th graders.
- 5th graders are so small. (There are 5th graders in the middle school…for now ) I interviewed one really pretty girl who was wearing an outfit it looked like she took straight out of a Limited Too catalog. Limited Too…
— LTD2 is no more, now it’s just TOO Inc, or TOO on the NYSE. Sad.
- There was a handwritten sign on the girl’s bathroom that said “Girls Only.” Ughk? I was scared to go in anyway because I didn’t want someone to make fun of my shoes, try to pierce my ears with a pin or offer me a cigarette.
- Kids smell. Always. Everywhere.
Happy Friday…spending the night watching movies, relaxing, love it.

Bosch’s The Garden of Earthly Delights. One of my favorites from the Prado
