my inbox is a veritable Spoon River Anthology of characters, just not dead

I have gotten some of the weirdest stuff in my inbox today. I have a grad student in ethics visiting me from Cambridge this weekend. And I should have some new photos by (the inimitable) Eric Martin maybe next week.

On a bright note, I also heard from a fellow model I met at a Maxim casting call -- it was great, I remember her trying to explain to a casting director that she has a degree in ecology, and about a hundred women all around us are adjusting their boobs for the camera. I try to avoid modeling gigs that confuse work with partying. "Getting on the VIP list to parties" is not a job perk in my book.

Also, Molly Crabapple turned 21 yesterday! Not that she hasn't been posing naked for years already, the little tart ;) I'm lugging around her present until I get to see her.
