amazing weekend...

good choice to go to Invisible Dog on Saturday evening. Play presented with great imagination, then good talk with Kerry, co-producer. about expanding the reach of "downtown theater". Possible further conversations look good. Then on Sunday, did not go to Cobra, instead went to meeting of citizens defending libraries in Brooklyn Heights, very abrasive meeting---tone of discussion very different from what cityboy is used to, but facts came out. Disturbing, then took A train to the junction, then back on L to Cobra---shy about asking friends to sign petition to save libraries, but Susan my bartender friend was wonderful, urged all customers to sign, and they did. Amazing how many Cobra denizens were "pro libraries,
or anti-high end development", but if only they knew. How to get the word out...? Looks like a very active summer, with this group, also Bronx Doc and Mayday, and FUREE. A kind of strength and focus comes to me which I somehow did not expect. Expected the summer to be commitment free, seems like this is just the opposite.
Still one more Spanish class this evening, I have been remiss in working on it, plan to do it this afternoon, after I make copies of library petition. Tonight, after lesson return to upper West Side to see my niece, natalie and meet her boy friend, Jarett, for the first time and his family, who happen to be my neighbors.
Irony in that...? We will see...more to come tomorrow, this week seems pretty fleshed out through Friday, hope to get in a movie somehow....
