~ while napping on the floor under my desk, the angry red offices were invaded by unknown parties. upon their withdrawal, a box was found in the space, affixed with the following text:

   at the point that i am writing this, the elections in the states are raging on. by the time you get this, there will be a new president. i wonder who?

   this is just a present to say sorry, that i can’t keep my promise to come and visit this year. but i believe in fate, too.
