excerpt of famous pen & m email exchanges

(and this fucking new desk person who sits accross from me eats like the most fucking loud food- today its gum smacking, carrot crunching- yesterday it was gum smacking, chip crunching, talking very loudly in spanish for the job-) makes me want to shoot myself.. . though i am hypocritical in my sometimes carrot eating sunflower shucking self... but still! ; )

later that day:

TOO MELLOW?!
i mean, he is totally mellow, yes. but isn't that a good thing? like can't you picture yourself driving to the beach, immersed in the breezy music of jack j?
glad you like xavier though. he plays all those instruments himself!

i know right. i sense our relationship is like totally in jeopardy. i will give him another listen i promise and show him the reverence is due him. but he might be too breezy and like ephemeral so that nothing grounds him to the earth... xavior at least rocks the digeri and the banjo. and i'm totally for those things. i like the quirk. ...will report more from the front lines as i listen.

i'll just be... here.
