walking in high park this morning i saw a woman walking her dog heading towards me who looked a bit like serena ryder who turned out to be serena ryder which was great. she sung on my last record. what a monster singer. she told me someone even brought a copy of Giulietta Masina at the Oscars Crying to one of her recent shows and asked her to sign it. i was so flattered i forgot about my plantar fasciitis. i’m not sure how i got it but new runners please. finished another online course and my cv status is firmly in the impressive zone. applied for another professor job. this one is teaching creativity. I’m lying throughout the application since i do not believe anyone can teach creativity but if such a job exists at an adequate salary, then i can at least get in line with the other people and try to out-lie them (it’s very difficult for the dad joker in me not to say i’m an outlier). i used to practise lying when i was a kid. i had the right instincts, i knew sometimes i had to lie and it would be better to spend time studying the art of convincibility. feels the same energy as practising keys one doesn’t know well.
