Post titled: The internet sucks. I forgot my laptop in Berlin. -Thank god.

suddenly I can look around, breathe, think, feel, and interact with the world instead of constantly getting electonic stimulus straight through the retinae.

and, joy of joys, it is like an international catfight in the mind these days- a constant hyper critique of both Germany and the US, scratching and clawing, I think it is causing headaches.

good news: hey helen! I found a pristine used hardback copy of your novel in one of my favorite bookstores here, will finally (looking forward to) getting to reading it.
