I'm on again, but somebody's off.

October 8, Girard.

Fridman spent the night at Liliana's with us and we left at six o'clock to catch the circus. Liliana was awake, she suffers from insomnia and is always up early. I miss her, and Dylan even more so.
It was like old times driving this morning, the fields and small towns so familiar.
Circus news: Mr. Perfect Picture/Librarian, aka Dereck, bolted yesterday in Jacksonville, of all places. He was also known, among the Spanish-speaking, as "el loco," and indeed he was a little off.
I guess the Kelly Miller Circus library is on hiatus until further notice, like Circus Chimera.
