READIN

Jeremy's journal

Decide that you like college life. In your dorm you meet many nice people. Some are smarter than you. And some, you notice, are dumber than you. You will continue, unfortunately, to view the world in exactly these terms for the rest of your life.

A note on The Keep: I very strongly identify with Danny's relationship to the telephone/internet -- the bit where he gets his satellite hook-up working and listens to his voicemail, with a combined feeling of "wow messages for me!" and "oh god, this again" resonated for me. Also I think Danny would be right at home in the comments at Unfogged. (Indeed I am tentatively identifying him with coolest-guy-I-know Joe D., although the resemblance is admittedly inexact.) (And speaking of people I know in the story: Ray's cellmate talks exactly in Bill's voice. Not skinny like Bill but.)
