One of the more rewarding things I've gotten myself involved with here has been with art programs directed towards helping at-risk youth across the city, and with any luck, I'll be helping these kids host an art show at the end of next month. I've seen a lot of kids come through our doors and not all of them stick around, but the ones that have end up on a pretty incredible journey. Some of them don't have one or both of their parents in their lives, or they're surrounded by violence and drugs in their families and neighborhoods, and no way to express themselves or what they've been through. When they find it, the end result is... magical, to put it lightly.
... Well, the point is, I thought I'd mention it in case anyone might be interested in coming to see what they've been working on all summer. Let me know, and I can share the dates and times with you when we have it finalized, which should be in the next couple days. And of course, if anyone is interested in volunteering, we could always use more mentors. I can put you in touch.
Working with them has also opened my eyes to a whole world of entertainment gossip I never would have noticed before. It's still weird seeing pictures of myself out and about, too. Who knew people would ever want to know what I did in my spare time?

FILTERED TO JAMES ROGERS:I've been thinking lately, and I got an extra key made to my apartment in Brooklyn. I don't use it much, but you're welcome to it whenever you need a break from Manhattan.
There's a two bedroom open on our floor, too. I know you like living on your own just fine, but I don't get to see you as much as I'd like to that way. Just a thought.
FILTERED TO BLOSSOM:Are you Any plans for this weekend, or do I have the liberty to try to one-up myself after Saturday?
