j'en conviens

I am under a cloud at school.

I was just out for a walkie when I happened upon this note - it looked like a school-aged child had written it to his chum.

Hi Chemlawn,

I just had this dream. I was at an art museum with Coombs, but we
were separated. I was going to visit you in Ecuador, so I went
outside to write you a note. There were plastic cafeteria-style
folding tables set up on the lawn. I had a big newspaper-sized piece
of newsprint folded in half, and I wrote my note on it. At the top, I
wrote "Fascicle" in big letters in ink with a brush. This was my idea
of a bookbinding joke. Except I didn't space it right, and ended up
having to write it like this:

Fascicl-
e.

Coombs was in line at one of the tables to buy a tostada or
something, so I joined her. There were big fried tortillas shaped
like sun hats on the table. A mule came over and started eating one
of them, but the guy behind the table didn't seem to mind. I tried to
push the mule away, but it was stubborn.

How are you?
