well, things aren't going all bad, Mrs.Tina Q. Rafer, who "am dying woman", has WILLED 2.5 million dollars to me since she has "been touched by God to donate from what [she has] inherited from [her] late husband to [me] for the good work of God." i'll go ahead and forward the good news to the FBI.

i was just thinking, on my drive over the viaduct at my very favorite time in this city, when the sun is just setting the buildings on a light pink glowing fire, that you can tell a lot about a seattlite by which of the three major beaches they prefer. ignoring any geographical constraints, if a person prefers alki, they're probably the sort of person that likes hanging out with other people. a socialite, if you will. if you prefer golden gardens, you're probably in high school. if you prefer carkeek, you're a loner dottie, a rebel. i guess it makes sense that i enjoy carkeek the best. and now we have yet another way to categorize people.

at any rate, there's a busy week coming up. tuesday, i'm going to check out the gits movie, wednesday i'm headed to the comet for hungry pines, biography of ferns, x-ray press and paper airplanes, friday i might go watch some comedians at the moore theatre (if there's any seats left), saturday i might go check out the kids of widney high, whose tape i first heard in 1996 from a girl in my college dorm.

so, if i manage to actually get out and do these things, look for some sweet reviews soon.

i don't know who i'm talking to.
