Best Saturday morning ever! Slept in having been out late “working” and interviewing the VM’s actresses backstage before and after the show. Incredible women, learned a lot, felt nervous but professional, and enjoyed the show (for free), which is slightly different with every rendition. Woke up and was drinking coffee, reading the paper, and trying to get the washing machine to work when my landlord’s helped me get the internet up and going here. Brilliant!
And even better, incredibly kind people came to look at the other apartment, German exchange student, and I instantly decided to seduce them into loving the place as much as I do by shamelessly using the kittens, park, and cuban café as bait, which he bit, and will be moving in tomorrow! Tra la la. Surf-rock concert tonight with friends, and dinner at Jess’s apartment makes me unreasonably happy and triumphant to “have a life” here. I could imagine myself living here long term, which as Andrew says, seems to be an affliction of the travel-minded that is simultaneously positive and bewildering. When one could put down roots nearly anywhere cosmopolitan, indecision can reign supreme and flexibility can turn into a commitment-phobic curse.
