Old Roommate

I’ve been emailing this girl I met a few months ago. She has been in Missoula Montana at the Rainbow Gathering. She always ends her emails with a line from Colette, “time spent with cats is never wasted.” She says that she will return to CA but wasn’t certain. I have been staying with my friends Mike and Ryan looking for a new place.

Meanwhile, my old roommate, sent me an email about a movie called Molly, about an autistic woman. Also, she saw another movie called Stir of Echoes about a boy that hears and sees spirits. She told me that she really empathized with the character. She told me that she and my other old roommate were going to help me out with the old apartment. We had a hard time with the move out. She was on her way to New York. She said she was going to stay with friends and get a job there.

She wrote that she liked email. Isn’t that funny?

This is series is a retrospective of my life taken from emails that I sent or received on the First of the Month.

Muslim Hui

I wrote in my notebook that in his book about Chinese Muslims in China Isreali wrote about substance and function; essence and practice. He wrote that as the Chinese adopted western cultural traditions so did the Muslim Hui and they were able to appear that they had assimilated into Chinese culture.
