yesterday Mary Beth and i went over to Justin's and watched too much tv...we did watch Little Miss Sunshine...the commercials had made me not want to see it, but it was a pleasant surprise...we also went to this nearby pita place (called Pita Wraps, i think, it's on poplar right in front of the clark tower, by smooth moves) it was very good...on my way to work today i had a minor scare...coming off the interstate to the street my workplace is on (it's the first street you cross, a wide-open bit of a stretch with no cross-traffic, etc) i sped up to pass someone before turning and then i look in my rearview and there's a cop right behind me...i turned and he turned but he didn't pull me over or nothing...quite probably wasn't even a traffic cop...but that's a bit of a scare...and on a "special needs" day wouldn't that just be nice? anyway...just came home to a bunch of mail...a couple of orders at once: Petersburg by Andrei Bely, Incidences by Daniil Kharms, Empire of the Sun by J. G. Ballard, The Master and Margarita by Mikhail Bulgakov, The Illuminatus! Trilogy by Robert Shea and Robert Anton Wilson, and Three Plays by Kōbō Abe...just called my insurace company about my windshiled...they'll be coming by to my home tomorrow while i'm asleep and i don't even have to be there and it don't cost nothin' either...so hopefully by the time i'm awake and on my way it'll be ready...

Also, I want to compare this new version of Incidences with my old one. Mine supposedly has all of Kharms' "incidences" in it, but I want to make sure that I don't need to buy it again.

i don't THINK there's anything new...just that it went out of print then ended up back in print with a different cover...of course i don't have any means of comparison...but i've seen nothing like "new! never-before-..." about it so...i assume you're safe...but you're more than welcome to scope out the goods...
