UbiEx: i would love to lay in bed with someone reading books all afternoon.
treebjen: me too
UbiEx: i've never actually thought about that until just now.
UbiEx: but how perfect!
UbiEx: did i ever tell you about how the author of one of my favorite books emailed me a few years ago?
treebjen: by coincidence?
treebjen: like "oh my god i love your website, let's make babies" sort of email?
UbiEx: it was very cute, she emailed me because she had searched AOL profiles to see if anyone mentioned her book, Franco American Dreams. I listed it as a favorite, and she thanked me. She lives close to me, I remember...maybe I will email her and ask to interview her for Targum or something.
