I was reflecting a bit on the book Million Dollar View which I posted about on the blog yesterday. I may be off-base about this, but I got the feeling that one of the lead characters so deeply identified with the bohemian aspects of her city of choice (and, as it happens, birth)
Much to the surprise of everyone around me, though probably even more of a surprise to myself, right after writing Stalling Tactics, I went back to dance class. In fact, I’ve been to three now—only missing one when other commitments and a deadline got in the way. I suppose it isn’t really accurate to say
Summertime means evenings with warm breezes and light that lingers. To me, it also means enjoying some alternatives to the “dinner and movie” date night. Personally, I love when the summer concerts start. That was true even when I wasn’t dating someone. My friends and I would head over to Bouchon for happy hour at

There was quite a lot of new over the weekend, but most exciting for me was the upgrade (finally!) of my phone. None of my apps were really working anymore (mostly because, as my friend C put it, they were made in 1984), and it was looking like I might lose out on some writing
I’ve started trying to stick to a new rule– don’t engage with other drivers on major thoroughfares after 2pm. Today I broke that rule in the search of something new. It took me three times longer to get where I was going, but I finally hit Carroll Avenue in my quest to see the Victorians.
