C-Town Reprised

C-town is warming up to me. Weather became better today – nice and sunny in the afternoon with a brief but intense thunderstorm. In between the interviews Boyfriend and I walked around a bit, and then after the interviews were done, in the evenings, we drove around in C-town and beyond. Saw some interesting neighborhoods in nearby B—, S---, and B---, and discovered this beautiful waterfront town Q---, about 12 miles away from C-town.

Exhausted at various points of the day, but always managed to pull myself back to life. Interviewees were on a whole younger and higher caliber than the crop yesterday. Had a few interesting conversations. A black woman this morning was forceful and very attractive. Her style and way of speaking reminded me a little of Will Smith’s wife Jada in the Matrix. Probably would make a really good facilitator. A lanky, tall, and very beat-poet-ish young Jewish writer gave me a collection of short stories by him. He would be very hip on some campuses.

Trying to figure out this apartment thing with Boyfriend, but it’s hard.
