[there's some shuffle as the journal is pushed open, and after a minute of considering what to say, Sweets speaks]
I was reminded not too long ago [read: Halloween] that I promised someone [read: Mindy] a John Wayne movie marathon. I fully intend to follow through sometime this month, but I was wondering if there was anyone else who might be interested?
I know that some people don't know who John Wayne is, or ... possibly even what movies are, so it could even be considered a cultural event. You can see a piece of something from our worlds that you wouldn't normally see in yours. Granted, these are old western films, so they don't necessarily have the best track record in terms of realism -- that wasn't really what they were for -- or ... matters of race and gender, but they're still rather enjoyable in their own right.
[a beat. he's an academic, you'll have to forgive him.]
My point being, I thought it would be a good community building exercise. I'll even bring popcorn.

Oh Lance, I'm glad that if we had to be anywhere, we're here together.
On that note, I should let you know I'm going off on the expedition that's coming up.
