I’m working shifts on a project online, so it gives me a few hours here and there to get errands done, as long as I’m available via cell phone. Two errands I have this weekend: rent a cello and buy some tennis rackets. A luthier- because I know you’re dying to know- is a cello [...]
Beth walked into the anteroom of the Central Station on Vallejo and tapped on the glass. Mikey was sitting behind his desk, head down, hands in his pompadour- styled after Newsom no doubt. He saw her and came over to open the door. “What’s wrong?” Beth asked. Mikey walked back to his desk. “I’m never [...]
I can’t write about it, but others can: SJ Merc Article (thanks Kate!)
I have this song in my head, and I’m not sure where it’s from. It’s a man’s voice, like Glen Campbell, going “… in Seattle,” with a kind of dip a few notes down and up in the word Seattle. Anyways, that songs is going through my mind over and over again. Far better than [...]
First, this quote, which I read this afternoon and it’s stuck with me. I’m reading Nancy Mitford’s The Pursuit of Love. But she was filled with a strange, wild, unfamiliar happiness, and knew that this was love. Twice in her life she had mistaken something else for it; it was like seeming someone in the [...]
Eric rolled over. He was tangled up in his eggplant 1000 count Egyptian sheets. His ex had insisted he upgrade. He wasn’t that involved in linens. She was picky, though. If she was going to stay over, he had to upgrade. She hadn’t been over, though, in 11 months. Almost a year. Eric picked up [...]
Had a “real day”- my old schedule. It was so great. I love my life. Compulsively checking email, drinking coffee, getting a tuna sandwich at the local cafe. Felt like summer this weekend. Sitting in my sister’s backyard, eating tri-tip, with the mosquitos and big bursting tomatoes on the vine. It is totally summer (she [...]
The joy of hanging out with children (see earlier post) is coupled with the fact that they are petri dishes. So I got some random virus, and ended up missing out on the conclusion of the trial. I was so bummed to get jury duty, and now I’m bummed to miss it! Quasi recovering now, [...]
Jury duty means that I can’t write about what I’m thinking about. It’s pretty much sheer agony. My solution was to hang out with my sisters & their kids (4). Kids didn’t pry you with 10 questions about your trial, instead they talked about: – how many sun spots you have on your arm – [...]
Newbies Beth sat in her cobalt jail, listening to opera, and emailed her latest status report to Sosa. Almost instantaneously, he chatted her on Yahoo: “So I’m full time on this multiple homicide now. ” She turned down the opera and picked up the phone. He kept talking where he left off in chat. “The [...]
