Oh, Jenny, Oh

It's so good to hear from you again, and that your cold/flu is better. I read Mar-ya passage twice before I figured out that it wasn't Barbara's. I kept wondering, why doesn't this sound like Barbara. I like how sweetly sly it is, the way you have it set up. Sarcastic? I guess, but aren't baby-sitters supposed to be? At the same time, there's a beautiful transparency going on with her character. The character of Diego is, I think, becoming more sharply drawn, Barbara. The small actions that you give him (like turning his back to the wind while lighting up) combined with things like having him run away after the first cup of coffee make him a round character for me. See you tomorrow.
