Coincidences

Last night I met up with Evan We hadn't seen each other in two years or more. We went to the John Waters exhibit at the New Museum and then, after a brief drink, to see Michael Ackerman's new show. I had forgotten the opening was that night and asked Evan if he wanted to go. He told me he had worked with Michael at his first job in the city, at a daily newspaper that now exists under a different banner. They hadn't seen each other in almost ten years.

As we wandered the narrow gallery, Evan found a friend of his who he introduced to me. Her name was Elinor and after a moment we realized we had met three or four years ago. I had worked with her husband at a now-defunct internet company. We had met at one of her openings in Chelsea around the time her first book came out. She's working on collecting her second. She and Evan are currently working on a series of Patricia Highsmith covers.
