2. Idiolexicon MONDAY!
=========================
Monday's reading features two amazing poets, Brian Teare of San Francisco and Mike Young of Western Massachusetts. Mike came all the way to San Francisco for this reading, so if you don't come, you're a terrible person. Actually, you're doubly terrible, as this will be the last Idiolexicon reading at Cafe Royale.

4. Studio One Reading Series September 5
=========================
Sarah Mumolo and Jack Morgan have been running a killer reading at Studio One in Oakland. Studio One is a pretty little art center in the middle of a residential neighborhood. Going to a reading there is just like YMCA Day Camp.
The last one of the summer will be September 5, with poetry from William Moor and Daphne Gottlieb and music from Ryan Parks. I'll meet you there and we'll drink wine and be glad.

5. Sorry for Sedoka
=========================
After you get home from the reading on Monday, visit
idiolexicon.com to see the results of Idiolexicon and Sorry for Snake's sedoka contest. Yay.
=========================
Whatever you're doing right now, I hope you're happy. I hope you're not causing bad things for yourself or anyone around you. I hope your corner store isn't out of your favorite items.
Sincerely,
Elliot
