What follows was written in January. I have not updated it. Please be aware that the contents of this email cannot be vetted for accuracy. Love each other. Let's see if this works... Hello Sinister. It's been a while. Writing to you feels like shouting into a tin can at the end of a string and not being sure if there's another can at the end. Also the other can is supposed to be in Japan. Anyway, I just wanted to say that NPR has been streaming Girls in Peacetime Want to Dance (Gipwod, why not let's say?) and I like it. Write About Love kind of sounded like an album they made to fulfill a contract but this one is pretty all right. I think you should all give it a listen. Anyway. I don't think about Sinister much anymore, except when a new Belle and Sebastian album comes out, which doesn't happen very often these days, so I hope that whatever people are reading this are having wonderful lives. You are all beautiful and I miss you.
