I'm excited about these side projects, hopefully collaboration is a good thing. I desperately need a new phone and a new number and a new pair of shoes and a new fitted and everything else I've ever wanted in my entire life.
I feel detached and, how do you say, um, sang-froid. Yes, maybe that's the word I'm looking for. Lots of days I just sit in my stairwell and read for hours, only breaking for water and trips to the bathroom. I can't concentrate in my room. Upstate New York looks better and better every day.

Nicéphore Niépce's earliest surviving photograph, c. 1826. This image required an eight-hour exposure, which resulted in sunlight being visible on both sides of the buildings.
