huzzah.
I'll be at a dinner party at Bernard's house in Takoma Park, with Arthur, Casey, Margaret, Pamela, James, Kirk, Scotty, Chekhov and Sulu. Maybe not Scotty, Chekhov and Sulu. Kirk Pillow is the Corcoran's new Vice-Dean, and a Kant scholar. The party is in his honor, although most of the guests are not currently associated with the Corcoran. I am taking some tejas from Helena's Chocolates in Lima, Peru, a big bag of cherries, and a small bag of muggles, no flask of scotch.
Have a great time! Give my regards to Bereley, where I once lived (on Channing Way and up in the hills in Kensington). Wish I was there with you.
I was very upset about not being able to go to this.
I had been waiting for it, but I had to leave town.
I am sorry.
I'm sorry to have missed you, Jack. With luck I'll get up to the Bay Area again for a reading some time soon. For all the obvious reasons, I love going up there whenever I can.
