i'd better take advantage of the connection here at garden street to say that i'm in the process of moving to my summer sublet, and that i'm sleeping over there now, and am only at garden street in the daytime to pack and to use the shower. the point of my saying so is to explain why i haven't been much online and won't be: i have not been able to connect to the wireless network over there for some reason, and it's only when i'm back here that i can check mail or blog. when i quit my current apartment at the end of the month - not very far from now, seeing today's already the 28th - i would probably work in the libraries or in the english department in the day and stay connected, but even so the evening connection problem remains. i will get by, i expect, but the point of this very lorsoh post is: do not email me if it's time sensitive; call.
