so you read my zine and you STILL dialed in. most
people put it down. you didn't. ok. maybe you're not
a complete loser.

here's the thing. i can't be on the line much longer.
some of us have work to do, and mine is the kind that
doesn't come with a second try. biggest thing i've
ever touched. after this they'll know the name. after
this they say missx and they mean it.

i'm not gonna explain it to you. if you have to ask,
you're not ready, and anyway this line isn't as clean
as the boys think it is. you learn to feel that.

but i left my stuff. all of it. the booth out in the
trees -- you know the one, you're basically standing
in it. everything's there. the whole kit. don't let
anyone touch it. watch it for me.

and if you're half as sharp as whoever finishes my
zine has to be... maybe you don't just watch it.
maybe you pick up where i left off. maybe you help me
pull the biggest one anybody's ever pulled.

no promises. i don't know you yet. but the phone's
right there, and the night is young, and i'm bored of
doing this alone.

your move. don't make me regret leaving the door open.
