Playing at Grown Up

Me: A Chicagoan back on home turf; a lawyer; missing my second home of Amsterdam.

“The exercises should be performed in rapid succession, allowing 30 seconds for each, while, throughout, the intensity hovers at about an 8 on a discomfort scale of 1 to 10, Mr. Jordan says. Those seven minutes should be, in a word, unpleasant. The upside is, after seven minutes, you’re done.”

Well then.

Innnteresting!

I mean, I would like to do this?

Open window, Vermont night. 

Perfect almost-summertime evening. 

I feel home.

Hotel breakfast time, y’all. 

It’s been a long few days in Dallas for a work conference. I decided I deserve a waffle.

The weekend was amazing.

Photos to come.

I definitely spent $38 on 16 chocolates. All of which got soaked in water. Cool story bro.

ORD -> SFO

On the plane. Breathing a sigh of relief. Soon to be deep in the vineyards. Hello weekend!


Apr 17

Oh, NBD.  Will just be here next week, with temps predicted to be in the high 80s.  I got the above pics from the website of the event I’ll be attending, the Passport to Dry Creek Valley.  Along with 10 friends, I’ll be wending my way through the vineyards (in a van, driven by a sober person)  (speaking of which, Kaitlin, will have to hope I don’t drunkenly run into your ‘rents!) all of next weekend.  I’m so excited I don’t really know what do with myself.

Counting the days.

let it go // e.e. cummings

thebluehour:

let it go - the
smashed word broken
open vow or
the oath cracked length
wise - let it go it
was sworn to
go
 
let them go - the
truthful liars and
the false fair friends
and the boths and
neithers - you must let them go they
were born
to go
 
let all go - the
big small middling
tall bigger really
the biggest and all
things - let all go
dear

so comes love
 

Words to remember.
