It was all I could do, when I was reading the Futel<\/a> Party Line zine<\/a>, to not just call up their operator and say “I want a free pay phone. In Randolph.” Because, hey, that would be cool. But realistically, someone would have to manage that project. And, if I am being honest, I am maybe full up with service work, as much as I enjoy it. This image is from the brochure I got with the zines. It amuses me that I can still think I am not “the adults.”<\/p>\n It’s a sort of thing about being underemployed (which I am, though not in a bad way) that you try to fill the days. But if you’re not going to a place and staying there for several hours a day, it’s hard to decide what “full” is. I spend a lot of time typing, and going back and forth between communication channels, solving problems. And I’m still feeling a little mystery-sick (have a doc appointment, things are proceeding apace) which limits me a little. Here are my little service projects.<\/p>\n Otherwise I’m just doing my summer thing. Childnado VII<\/a> went great; it’s so good to have regular times to see old friends. I feel the same way about Jimsmas (Jim and Other Jim and two other friends with 12\/6 birthdays get together for food and cake) which isn’t until December. I’ve put off doing birthday stuff this year until I’m feeling better but Virgo Month of Leisure<\/a> is in full effect and maybe I’ve got a shot at it this year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It was all I could do, when I was reading the Futel Party Line zine, to not just call up their operator and say “I want a free pay phone.
