Well Since I Come Home, Well My Body’s Been a Mess
Being in N.Y.C. this week reminded me of being in N.Y.C. almost exactly a year ago, visiting my best friend Tracey. She lived there for a year, and before that she lived in San Francisco for a year, and before that she spent 12 hours a day toiling in the cubicle down from mine. Now [...]

Twisting Incognito
We fall into habits, we fall into routines.
Turn fancy electric toothbrush on, brush, bend, spit.
This morning I was preoccupied.
We are worried, we are facing changes, we are trimming back, we are itemizing recent expensive purchases and planning our returns, we are making budgets, we are watching.
We are fine, we are just worried.
