House to Meself
Well, my roomie of the last month has now officially moved out and headed back to Western Mass. I think this is a good thing. I will really miss her, actually, and we had some great times, but it was just getting towards the point where we were starting to find each other kind of annoying, and the space thing was getting really obnoxious.

Provincetown Film Festival is this week, Weds through Sunday. I rather wish that I were both rich and early and could have bought the pass that would let me into anything I wanted to see--but I was neither, and the passes were both sold out and out of my price range.
