Developments and considerations

Brian is down for the weekend and since I couldn’t think of a way to hide him from my mother, I broke down and informed her of his multi-day (which requires sleeping) visit. She took it rather well, asking me if I thought I was gay and announcing that if I were, she would hang herself. (Which, as you could imagine, was a very stupid thing to say, since if I were, I would still want her to live—she raised me well in that regard.)

In more exciting and serious developments, I’ve discovered the wonders of Facebook. Since I joined the fad, I’ve received several emails from lost Livingston connections (aka friends of convenience). But on Tuesday, one Facebook message threw me off my chair. My first girlfriend from 8th grade messaged me! She’s a year younger and will attend Cornell in September.

We’re cutting “Luske -Volsky” down to an hour, and Brian has been accepted to the July 13- Clinton D.C. conference (we’ll be staying with Clara). The very first season of Roseanne is coming to a Wal-Mart near you on August 30th and Clara is pressuring me to leave Marist (since, she says, without Bree, the radio station might go under)—I’m not jumping the gun but there are some things I must consider.
