well, it's away. the teeny feature for a canadian mag is finished. and now that i've just emailed it to the editor, i want to take it back. crap.
...
my houseguest M- left this morning. it was good seeing him. we bought comic books, watched a little football and smoked a lot of duty-free camels. i spent the whole day with him thursday but friday i went back to the office. it was a long day - meetings, fundraiser deadlines were beginning to hit hard and i had to admit that i didn't give a lot of thought to how M- was going to occupy his time. (since i have no nurturing instincts, i tend to just let people fall where they may.)

so i was not that worried when i got home last night and he wasn't there. i thought, oh, he's taking a walk or he's on his way back from ... wherever. but then it started getting dark. no phone call, the bus that stops right in front of my house had stopped running...where's M-?

poor guy. he had to walk all the way home from michigan avenue.
