Well: here I am Nora’s beautiful brownstone in Bed-Stuy with Sweet Potato the dog. When I went to sleep last night, I figured I’d be in Montreal by now. But I left my passports at the satellite office in Virginia . . . and so I wasn’t able to board the train to Canada to see Laura and her sisters. It has really bummed me out. I have to figure out where to go between now and my cousin’s wedding on the 20th. I think I will stay in New York at least one more day . . . I have to see something through first or else I’ll always wonder. You know??
