    The student had a cracked phone and a portfolio and I thought she would say why yet. She laughed instead and said "the screen still works," and my heart did something unexpected.

    she didn't like how the work was displayed on the wall, said "it's not enough," i asked what more could be done, said "just move it over."

    The location today was a run-down taco stand in Gustavo A. Madero that's been there forever, known by its neon sign flickering above the alleyway. It doesn't have any paperwork but that never stopped anyone before; I've seen worse. The owner squints at my ID with the new name and nods approvingly — he knows Doctores. "La lucha sigue," he says.

    moving week. 47 seconds of silence from my mother on the phone, then "call me." the cat's fur is a problem

    the space was full of smoke last night. i opened all the windows before the opening tomorrow.

    I keep all my notes on actual paper because digital is just tempting fate now.

    The new film crew is a bunch of gringos who do not understand real Mexico City yet. I showed them how to get to Polanco without getting kidnapped.

    the artist said they wanted to paint a portrait of the gallery on the wall near the elevator. i told them about the elevator's previous life as a storage space for broken furniture

    Negotiated with a bakery owner today in Tláhuac over coffee; he has never had anyone offer him kombucha before. We shook on a deal for next week's shoot. 🙏
