Mean Things: Kenny got too drunk again.

Reason for Stopping: Luxury reading, prep for a supervision meeting tomorrow, sleep.

Notes: An interesting thing happened that I'd had at the very back of my mind while writing this. I'd intentioned a sort of parallel structure to underlie the stories of these two main characters and at times it's more evident than others before and after their initial encounter, but I think I've finally found a dual-scene where I've executed it the way it's existed in my mind. It involved flow and the body moving divorced from the mind and saw that applied to boxing and to writing and managed to encapsulate so much of my experience in both cases. Sometimes the autobiography here is painful, but other times, it's enlightening and insightful and educative and restorative.
