I was teasing Jack. I wanted to talk about his day; he wanted to watch Martha Speaks on PBS Kids. "Jack," I said. "Will you be my friend?" He rolled his eyes. "You're my mom ." "Can't I be your friend,too?" "If you're my mom, you're pretty much, like, everything ." He got to watch Martha Speaks. I watched it with him.

On Saturday I started reading Infinite Jest. On Monday I heard that David Foster Wallace committed suicide the previous Friday. I wonder if that's what he meant to do. Hope you don't continue to haunt me, DFW. Hope you find some peace.
