All the cities that we burned down

[sovay]

Rabbit, rabbit! To inaugurate Pride Month, I spent most of the day doing laundry, but that's because very early tomorrow morning I am leaving for New York. I did manage to drop by gaudior's birthday party, where I helped light a dramatic amount of candles on a cheesecake without setting any household objects or people on fire, except slightly my thumb.

I have still not written a speech in the event of winning a Lammy. The concept appears to exist at the exact intersection of Tiny Wittgenstein and tempting fate. I'm working on it.

I think my extensive plans for tonight are pack and collapse.

I know of no Lammy webcast, and I'm not sure if anyone will tweet the results live. So while Sam Mussabini in Chariots of Fire knew that Harold Abrahams had won the 100 meters, because he saw the Union Jack rise above the Paris stadium, and we know know the results of papal votes by puffs of smoke, I must anxiously await your blog post.

Thank you! I should earnestly like to avoid becoming pope, but I could deal with being Harold Abrahams.

(I suspect people will tweet the results, but since I'm not on Twitter, I won't see it until I get home!)
