You’ll never believe it, but I got propositioned. A geezer in a suit came up and said “DO YOU HAVE A TIME?” and I tapped my wrist and said “I have no watch, sorry,” and he said, “No no, time for…to make LOVE!” I went out for pizza. There was corn and mayonnaise on the pizza. It was disgusting, and people ate it with chopsticks. Afterward I drank three cold beers while in the supermarket, which is legal, and I felt okay, I felt like things had balanced out. Now the stars are out and it’s like a planet-sized disco ball is spinning around out there somewhere just out sight, all these points of light.
