The Internet Hard At Work
So friday night i went and had a grand old time at Rhinoceropolis and managed to make it home before dawns early light. go team. Saturday I woke up at the crack of noon (oh my god it was glorious!) not yet ready to eat, i grabbed my computer and decided to check my email. Now about 6 months ago I posted a short story called "Picking My Nose and Finding a Submarine" that i was doing a presentation on for my creative writing class. When I opened my email on Sat. it said that I had a new comment on my blog from a J. Marcus Weekley, as well as an email. Either because I just woke up, or because I am...well, me, I sat there looking at my computer screen thinking "where do I know that name?" for a good minute and a half. The easy thing to do would be to open the emails and see if it contained any clues, or even better, read the subject line that said "Picking My Nose and Finding a Submarine" and put two and two together. Either way. But no, it very slowly clicked that I had just received an email from the author of the story. (Marcus, I hope you google your name again, it's always nice to find that someone is writing about you...or very creepy.) This makes the second time in the past month that I have heard of someone finding my blog like this. Last time it was Willie telling me that his boss pulled him aside with a printed version of one of my entries concerning Chedd's Gourmet Grilled Cheese. mmm....grilled cheese.

Hey Lulu,
LOL. Saw the comment about waking up. I usually wake up at 2 or 3 in the afternoon. What kind of cereal will kill me from 300 feet? Cocoa Crispies?
You dig that Weezer song "Beverly Hills?" Right now I'm listening to Simon and Garfunkel's "Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard."
Later,
Marcus
p.s. is that verification system to weed out drunks?
