i know! i thought they were %100 fly-by-night! but i spoke to a very nice editor guy etc etc.

i wanted to be like, hey GIVE ME A JOB. haha. that might be rude though, after accusing him of being "a dream!! how do i know you're even real?" etc etc.

& thanks :) i'll never snub that laundromat again!
