Goals for the year:

Run the Half Marathon Grand Prix (last done in 2005) and the NYC Marathon (first ever, after deferring twice now)

Finally join the orchestra that I've been talking about with Elena and Melissa forever

Get a new job! This wasn't even going to be a goal per se, although I do go through phases where my frustration/misery drives ( Read more... )

I totally agree about No One Belongs Here... , but one of the stories totally hit some spot in my brain and permanently anchored itself there. I'm impressed with experiencing something that can make such an impact and that I can relate to.

Nice to see an update! :-)

I think my former comment made it sound like a positive thing, but "The Man On The Stairs" totally got me. The last line was like WHOA.

I'm glad to see your running goals. Really.
And, I really think you should come out for speed training. Believe me, there are people who are NOT fast (Stacy and Liz) but it does make everyone a better runner.
I plan on doing Manhattan and the Bronx half and hopefully Loren and I will get it together to have a brunch.

Oh and what do you play?

maybe you were able to catch it in person, but this is a link to a reading. there are a few authors who i'd really rather hear than read, and maybe miranda july qualifies as one of those. i haven't read much from her, so i'm not sure if her voice, which i love, would be there in my head. thanks for reminding me about that book!

I couldn't send you a mail because of privacy settings, so I'm thanking you here, I hope you don't mind! I definitely understand if you delete this.

Oh wow!!!!! Thank you so, so, so much!!!!! My dad died recently and his obituary was in the New York Times. I haven't been able to get a copy and I already used up all of my stupid free articles, so this means a lot to me. Thank you again!!!!!!!!!!!!! You just totally made my week, which until now was super depressing. This is freaking awesome!!!!

You're welcome, glad it's going to good use!
I actually have no idea what my privacy settings are, so this works :)
