i’m wondering if i can get your permission to make more mistakes without judging them to be mistakes. or would i need your permission? i’m assuming it will ok. but so very often, my assumptions are wrong. i’m not really sure why i wrote to you to ask about the trustworthiness of a mutual acquaintance, thinking that you might be open to talking about this. and since it’s been over 10 minutes now, and i still haven’t heard back from you, i am imagining the worst.

and still, 15 minutes later, i have yet to hear back from you. you are probably not even near your computer at this ungodly hour. you’re probably swimming, or sleeping, or sleeping with somebody swimming.

i will just keep assuming until i hear back from you.
