the database is now up to
seventy percent rebuilt.
It’s been a few hours.
Last night, I watched
the Grammys with Otto.
Til around ten, anyway.
Or did I dream this? No,
surely not. I remember.
What a bunch of fogeys,
but oddly entertaining.
Okay, no more talk of
last night, of last night’s
dreams.
This morning I’m feeling
even more fantastic than
yesterday (can I imagine?).
Seemingly over my cold;
ninety-nine percent. Just
a bit of stuffiness, but Otto
didn’t notice any snoring
(perhaps he was only
dreaming, as well).
[Brief cut to the future,
several years hence:
its redundancy is ob-
literated by his horrify-
ing drowning, gasping
for two or three nights
leading to (gasp and gasp-
ing!) failure of heart.]

I’ve been reading a book.
It’s very interesting. I
remember when I
used to read only
one book at a time.
