I emailed you on Nov. 11th but never got a reply. No big deal, I just assumed that you were busy, but now I wonder if you ever received it in the first place. It didn’t bounce or anything, so I dunno. ---

I got an e-mail from Jenny just now. It was sort of odd and said something about “digging a grave for me in the basement”. Must be some sort of odd musician slang.
