A Week in the Life: Letters Unsent Saturday

Posted on May 27, 2012

Back in Manhattan: My life in the States is comparatively less glam than my life abroad.  Not that the real-time elements of travel are particularly sexy — because when you are living them, I will admit that they are interesting, … Continue reading →

A Week in the Life: Friday – Exit, Pursued by a Bear

Posted on May 25, 2012

Again, I woke up late.  By which I mean, 10am.  I’d been arguing with The Englishman until late, about the stupid car thing. Why my opinion mattered to him was beyond me. Just buy your Aston Martin and admit you’re … Continue reading →

A Week in the Life: Thoughts from Thursday

Posted on May 24, 2012

I woke up late (again) to sunlight streaming through the sheers of my hotel in Madrid.  I’d cracked the window open the night before, and the morning sounds from the street were wafting up into my room. It was still … Continue reading →

A Week in the Life: Ode to a Wednesday

Posted on May 23, 2012

I am slowly coming back to life… I wish someone were in love with me like boys were ages ago before I was sick. I suppose it will be years, though, before I could think of anything like that. – … Continue reading →

A Week in the Life: Treacherous Tuesday

Posted on May 22, 2012

I nearly didn’t wake up on time.  I was saved by a ping — my American mobile phone beeping and buzzing with successive text messages.  It was Tink, updating me on plans and logistics for an upcoming visit.   But it … Continue reading →

A Week in the Life: Manic Monday

Posted on May 21, 2012

I arrived in London relatively unscathed.  I always do. (I think I have about 12 dozen photos of my feet snapped at immigration at Heathrow.) The driver met me and we sped off to Central London. By “sped,” I mean, “we sat … Continue reading →

A Week in the Life: Sunday – One Freak on Foot

Posted on May 20, 2012

I loved writing the “Week in the Life” posts last year.  And I love the idea of the project.  I’ve loved Sarah Rosemary’s posts.  I’m just not a scrapbooker; I don’t aspire to be one.  I do, however, compulsively document … Continue reading →

DNF

Posted on May 20, 2012

So it happened.  I finally got injured.  I’ve managed to run injury-free for three years, and during the second half of the Brooklyn Half Marathon yesterday, disaster struck.  I’d texted a handful of friends in the morning and said, “If … Continue reading →

Answered Unquestioned

Posted on May 18, 2012

In the continuing spirit of me serving not as a role model or an example, rather as a horrible warning to you all, I should tell you about how I “celebrated” Mothers Day with my friend JM.  JM is Miss … Continue reading →

Once in a Lifetime

Posted on May 17, 2012

My sweet Roo is turning two years old in a few weeks. I greet this with mixed emotions, because I am crazy and I cannot stand the thought of him getting older. I’d like to think I’m not a nutso … Continue reading →
