Day 3735

Day 3735 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. The radio in Truman Beaumont's kitchen has been persuaded to play his favourite song. He is singing along, badly. The town cat is asleep on the Town Hall steps. Municipal business reroutes around it. The photocopier at Seahaven Mutual is making the noise again. Bev Tanner has been elected to deal with it. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
