We rode with Allen's brother, Ryan, to the airport yesterday to provide him a proper farewell. The back things up a step or two (or week) for the uninitiated, Ryan had indicated (rather flippantly) that he wanted to visit us once we got settled. Ryan, as it were, is known to be flaky at times--which is a shocking reveal about Allen's family, to be sure--so when he mentioned it we didn't put too much stock in it.
That was a mistake, to our delight, because he came out to visit a week ago and it's been one of the best times I've had in the city since moving here. For a change I got to play tour guide with him instead of filling out the role of tourist myself, so it's been a busy week for us.
Allen and I's place isn't a palace by any means to begin with, but now that we don't have Ryan crashed out on our sofa, it feels extremely empty in there. So, here's to you Ryan. We miss you and hope you'll visit again soon!
As an addendum to my weird emails, I'd like to thank everyone that has sent along warm emails to me. In fact, I'd say the amount of affable correspondence outnumbers the off-setting ones. Now that my life has begun to settle back into it's post-graduate boredom again, I'll be able to reacquaint myself with the fun little insane things around SF that help me keep my sanity.

Hi Katy,
I saw your profile on the nonchalance site, and see you are investigating all this too.
How much poking around have you done on all this Jejune stuff? You must have gotten pretty far to have made a profile on the site as well.
Have you listened to the radio broadcasts yet? I've been too wrapped up in daily life to get out to Delores park to check out the messages.
Anyway, thought it would be nice to try to connect with other people who were looking into these weirdness-es, and say "Welcome to San Francisco"!
Oh, and there is a free circus show out at circus center tomorrow at 6pm, if your interested and in the sunset.
Nice to meet you,
Soggy B.
