I’m getting ready to go out for the evening. As I post this picture, my building management is showing my apartment to perspective tenets. Looking around, I know I’m going to miss this place. The past seven months have been great and I was able to build a new space that felt like home, complete with one of my favorite friends. Things have changed, but I look forward to new homes and new spaces. 

1. Have dinner with Alex, Mallory, and Brad. 
2. Talk with Felipe about Invisible Man.
3. Write a post on Catman and Panda.
4. Open Photo Booth™.
5. Listen to Fleetwood Mac. 
6. Pour a glass of wine. 
7. Take 20 pictures. 
8. Remove 18 pictures. 
9. Open Photoshop™ and have some fun.

When I was reading the paper this morning, I expected the Iowa caucus to be a dramatic fight between Mitt Romney and Ron Paul. I never expected Rick Santorum to lead. I’ve been on the edge of my seat all night!

In other news, Rick Perry and Michelle Bachmann are finished. At least he admits it. 

Edit: Rick Perry is continuing his campaign and Michelle Bachmann has suspended hers.

Written on the body is a secret code only visible in certain lights: the accumulations of a lifetime gather there. In places the palimpsest is so heavily worked that the letters feel like Braille. I like to keep my body rolled up away from prying eyes, never unfold too much, or tell the whole story. I didn’t know that Louise would have reading hands. She has translated me into her own book.
