after some very intense moments not enjoying the atmosphere but enjoying an overwhelmingly intimate play at rust belt books, i wandered over to the drama section on the off chance that i'd find what i was looking for and lo and behold there it was, a one volume hard cover copy of angels in america, a gay fantasia on national themes, in all its glory for half the price that id have expected it to be. i only regret that i made megan late and that i was the only one representing the house and that sometimes you never know what to say to people that you really like and care about.
