we are going to Adam Kraar's reading of his play at Ensemble Studio Theater. Saw a reading of this play about a year and a half ago, and I hope Adam has improved it; anyway, it will be fun to see it and chat with him.
Went to sleep early yesterday, and to my surprise, awoke around 5A.M.---strange that I did not have a waking moment around 2 or three, which is usual for me. Must have been more relaxed then I thought.
This morning, wanted to work--there was none---continuing on my journey with Durrell, now reading CLea, some really amazing writing in the beginning pages---Darley's reunion with Justine---amazing how he really creates the changed perception of Darley. Haunting writing---had visitations of a short story that I might write, characters emerged and promptly expanded, then a phone call (real) asking me to tutor a four year old
(yeah, that is right!) and my reverie, so vital in the Lincoln Center atrium, seemed to disintegrate. Returned briefly as I went to lunch---seems to me the cut between creating and teaching is a vast one, at least for me.
Anyway, austerity budget continues, cityboy determined to save money any way he can (like going to readings, which are free)---next couple of nights pretty well defined---Assembly party on Friday, usual tour of Williamsburg and Bushwick on Sunday, and next Thursday and Friday, going to the "preview" of the avant garde groups at City College Center. Rest of the day will determine itself.....
