magicbeans. nothing if not awkward.

up, shower, and the drive (again) to new york.

when i hit traffic, on 87 and then on the fdr, my car began stalling. stall, start, stall, start. but i made it there okay. found parking. began walking towards chinatown where er!n was looking for an open check cashing place. once again, the cell phone asserts its indispensability.

we met up and all went back to er!n's. sat and talked. erin.l called, then came over. and so he and er!n and still trying to work things out. which sort of negated the whole purpose of this assemblage, but then i guess the assemblage takes on it's own purpose. er!n, chel, and jason, despite being something of a trinity, had never actually spent any time all together in the same place. i think that i might have met chel, once, about four years back, but we had never really talked, and actually, now that she's back in school, studying architecture, we found a fair amount to talk about.

we went out for indian food. some guitar playing was done. some moving was done. erin.l left to get some sleep. after a piece of pizza jason and cell left for philadelphia. er!n and i went out for pancakes. and conversation.
