summer start
erin and i were in new york this past weekend, which was very good. but up came out this past weekend, which means we could not see it until tonight. so we saw up tonight. when we arrived at the movie theater we saw a familiar bike in front. erin pegged it as anna’s. here is a picture of anna, “remixing” her “wardrobe”:

so we texted her all like WE SEE YOUR BIKE LOL HI and she texted back that she was getting barbeque across from the movie theater and also hi. anna just stopped being vegetarian and so i think that is why she is just eating a lot of barbeque.
then we saw up and i cried during every single part that did not involve either tension or action. this means i cried for a combined total of about thirty minutes. then we came out of the movie theater to a very very familiar bike, clipped right next to mine: finch’s. i wrote some stuff on one of my cards and stuck it between her front spokes, then went to unlock my bike and found this, stuffed in my helmet, torn out of a 5x7 moleskine:

so i guess what i’m saying here is that if i walked down logan boulevard and kicked everybody who walked past me in the crotch, it would only be a matter of time before i kicked one of my friends in the crotch.
dear austin warner,
thank you for the note. her name is spelled “erin.” we are sorry that your pen ran out at an inopportune time. we hope that you enjoyed your movie.
warmest regards,
nickd (and erin).
