watching me watching you

[rinue]

Cold today, near record lows for this time of year I think. Tired from staying up late and getting up early; friend Elena from film school was able to stay the night here in transit from London to a wedding in Vermont. Hard to believe it's been four years. She is the same as ever in all the right ways, but more confident about it.

Halloween makeup is in stock already at the drug store. Bought a glow-in-the-dark "body crayon," only to discover a disappointing warning not to apply near eyes. I wanted you to see me peering at you from the dark.
