9/15–
Writing at Yulupa Starbucks, unexpected day off with Solano shut down due to a “water main” 
This morning, such energy from the writer and such momentum and confidence, I do attribute some of that to the coffee, but much to this luck touch that rarely finds Mike Madigan. I’ve found that when things like this arise, they miss me. In fact this nearly did, with me yesterday receiving a message saying classes would resume today. Then a message from a friend, also an adjunct at SCC, telling me classes are closed till 12, just 30 mins before mine. THEN… another email saying classes closed till 2. THEN….. A message today saying all classes cancelled. That school apparently hasn’t deciphered certain common sense dimensions. My re-immersion to the “faculty” and to the campus has been anything but euphonious, or smooth. And with my daughter nearing her arrival, I will be closer. But this I’ve said before…
Last night, seeing M2 under Alice’s skin, responding to light movements and our voices, all three of us in the room– me, Kerouac and Alice.
