In-between post. Still settling.

…and that’s why I was in Atlanta last Friday.

While waiting for a plane out of my accidental tour of the South I bought a book – John le Carré’s Absolute Friends. Yesterday I finished it, and today I’m going to quote it to you at length because it is just that awesome.

And then there’s the ending. I won’t give it away, but absenceofmind, for instance, wouldn’t like it.

I’m happily installed in the new house, and better yet so is the cable! Mmm, cable internet. Classes look fun, although I didn’t expect there to be quite so many German majors in 19th Century European Intellectual History or D&D freaks in Early Middle Ages.

I’ve heard my cell phone so often that I’ve memorized the ring, and now I hear it in my head. And when I say “hear” I mean that literally, to the point where I can’t tell when it really is ringing and when I’m just imagining things, and this is SO ANNOYING because I keep checking for calls and there are no calls. The other day I missed two I thought weren’t real, honestly I don’t know what I'll do if - ah.
