Last night Alayna found a letter she had written me on my 35th birthday but had forgotten to give me, and sent me a picture of it. She concludes it thusly. It made me feel a feeling:

Since the real measure of a life is in our friendships with people, animals, and the places we inhabit, I’d say yours is . . . vast. You have ties to so many places in the world simply because you know all about being a friend, like it’s your job if jobs were meant to be about what naturally suits a person’s soul.

:,-)

It’s right there on my business card . . .

Is it not obvious that someone who customarily lives in a state of suffering requires a different sort of religion from a person habitually in a state of well-being?

i bought a plastic desert eagle for a video and it looks Very Real and everyone is already used to it lol

Here’s the little commercial Isabella and I shot and edited for her new small business . . . the gist of which being: Isabella will come to your house and fix and install things for you so you don’t have to ask some random dude from the internet to do it. Because if he ends up being some freak-ass creep . . . once he’s in your house, you have to get him out of there again. So why bother! Just hire Isabella . . .

She came over earlier tonight and we made tea and oatmeal and glued this thing together. I think it’s pretty good! We’re filming a few more soon . . .

Back to work!!
