In other news, I took green_trilobite to Cory Doctorow`s reading yesterday, but it was madly crowded and we had to leave. I`d also made the mistake of ducking under a table to get out of the way (I could still hear the reading, and there`s a lot of unused space under tables); but green_trilobite disn`t know where I`d gone. Also a young man who`d noticed me under the table kept asking me about my motivations; he even followed us on his bike for a while afterwards, asking “please, what sort of person sits under a table in order to not be in the way?” (uh, one who also isn`t in a mood for conversation?) so, basically, invisibility fail and social fail. I just hope I haven`t driven green_trilobite deeper into reclusiveness (reclusivity?)
