I'm in kind of a good mood because the scumbag Christian principal of the high school that I attended for two years before getting suspended twice and then nearly expelled and then giving up and moving to Africa has found himself in a scandal today after having expelled a girl who had a sexual relationship with a teacher and then totally getting called on it by the press. My own near-expulsion was due to a sex scandal as well due to my having had sexual relations with two girls on a school trip (they couldn't prove it, though, thus only the suspension), so this is particularly amusing to me. Also, the principal is an Episcopal priest who's divorced and married to some very young woman and who drives a BMW and is at any rate one of those people too cliche to depict in fiction. It's already made the Dallas Morning News and seems to have gotten some national play. This saves me the trouble of vandalizing the school, which I always forget to do when I go back to Dallas for Christmas.
Anyway, I'm staying with some friends off the Morgan stop on the L for a week and then another friend in Harlem for a week after that before moving into my new apartment back here in Bushwick off that same stop. Let me know if you'd like to meet up for coffee or liquor at your convenience. In the meantime, are you a full-time freelancer? What's your book on?
