August 15, 1990: Janay called me three days later to confess that her real name was Carol



Thirty years ago today

In the evening as I was just finishing a shower I got a call from a woman named Janay, who'd called me three days before. I talked with her naked and soaking wet and kept on chatting until well after I was dry. She wanted to tell me that she'd lied and that her real name was Carol. She said she was twenty five, born in Jamaica, was 165 cm tall, weighed seventy kilos, used to be fat, liked to cook, worked as an accountant. She talked on and on until after 23:00 and so I didn't get much done. She told me she'd probably show up at the Claremont on Friday.
I missed Nancy.
I made curried cod with potatoes.
