On my doorstep this morning a package from Christy. Salman Rushdie`s Midnight`s Children, a pack of pistachio nuts and her favorite nightshirt. I like people. I really do. my g4 makes a good leg prop. I need more ram, though. The mother of 3 next door is singing all day long today.She has a lovely clear voice. She says she is jealous of her husband who always knew he wanted to be a doctor. She used to want to be an actress. I can hear her in the next house as if she were in the next room. which means she can hear me do stuff too. That`s food for thought.
