this morning
this morning I went on a jog and came home to find out that I had not left the door unlocked.
I rang the doorbell, because henry is home, but the problem is that I bought him these noise-blocking headphones and so he doesn't hear anything. I rang the doorbells-- the side door and the front door-- and knocked on the door until my hand hurt. I threw sticks at his window. They fell apart upon hitting the screen. I think the recent week of rain had softened them. Then I got the garden hose and sprayed his windows with water. That was a pretty good idea (not to mention a lot of fun) but it didn't work. So I ran to phil's and used his phone to call and leave a message.
Now I am at the library. I emailed henry but he doesn't check email that often. Basically there is no way to get in touch with him. or to get into the house. Phil offered to break the window. "No," I said, I will go to the library. He had started to show me his coin collection but I was really not interested. I suppose I will read back issues of harpers and writer.
