since the last post, a lot has certainly happened on the ham.

d. has been lost at sea. but separation is natural.

e. may have a fifth boyfriend, but she'll have to fight m. and l. for him. as l. fights for him, she's also fighting to survive in the art world as she struggles to defend her status as an artist. after all, an artist has taken ap classes, and has a website and portfolio on hand at any time, an amateur doesn't. where will she fall in the eyes of critics? artist? or amateur? 

the boyfriend came up for the weekend to see e. leaving the weekday boyfriend free to do as he pleased. former schoolmates dts came for a rare performance in the ham, kicking off the weekend. luckily, the performance didn't set anything on fire this time. m. and l. went to an after-party at the 28 while e. and the boyfriend had an after-party of their own. m. and l.'s after-party went into the early hours of the next day by the time they finally stumbled home. it looks like firemen may be making guest appearances on the ham in the future. after all, who knows how to party better than a fireman? and, lucky for m. and l., there will finally be someone to put out all the fires. from the events of friday night, it looks like m. and l. have ended their fight and all is forgiven. let's just hope l. doesn't forget to tell m. about the soup-of-the-day and, consequently, forget about m. 

saturday afternoon was spent by e., the boyfriend, and l. playing tennis at a country club with anna kournikova. she reportedly was heard saying that they are fierce competition and she learned a thing or two about them to add to the speed of her serves. impressive! this was followed by a low key night at the movie theater watching the comedy '88 minutes.'
