Social Security and I are at kind of an impasse.

Ok let's be honest Social Security is totally kicking my ass. My mom is pretty sure that I and all the other progressive activists are on a secret John Ashcroft blacklist and little by little we're going to find funny inexplicable problems popping up in our paperwork till the next time we show up at the polls our voting records are going to have us down as convicted felons from Yemen.

Let's think of things I could do while I'm still legally a male. I could...MARRY A WOMAN! In TEXAS! Ok that was obvious. Is there anything else guys can do that girls can't?

I'm actually a little sick about the whole thing. Bureaucracies are by nature inefficient, right? And subject to human error. How many of the people who have been rounded up since 9/11 and held without charge or counsel or contact with their families because they were born in the wrong country and had a problem with their paperwork are there because of a data entry mistake?

What do you remember? Listening to records in the tent your surrogate brother made in the livingroom. Is that just a movie scene, or did it really happen? I think I dreamed about you guys

Bec it was so good to talk to you. I can't wait to hear how the next week goes. I bet Yorkish weather will sound romantic when you write home about it. Remember: Beware of the pubs.

I've heard a rumor that one of the cast members on the new Real World was on Ghostwriter when he was a kid. What's up, Brooklyn.

bare bones
