thanks, geoffrey!

Hi Shannon,

We needed you in a show on the weekend at an art gallery so you could show off that dress again and you had to be overseas at the time!!

Too bad, but I hope your time there is fabulous.

cheers

nothing boosts a girl's morale more than to know that the fact she had to put her "modeling career" (note the inverted commas, meant to signal an ironic tone!) has left a certain lack in the world of fashion. this afternoon, i received the above e-mail from geoffrey, a friend back in kingston who designed the dress that i wore to the end-of-the-year english department christmas party this past december.

oh the glamour. it's killing me.
