From the archives (February 29, 2008): Patrick Stewart as Macbeth
Patrick Stewart and Kate Fleetwood I saw Patrick Stewart do Macbeth tonight at the Brooklyn Academy of Music. It was a lovely evening. It’s freezing today and I trekked out there, emerging into the utter chaos of Atlantic and Flatbush. … Continue reading
From the archives (October 27, 2004): The pros and cons of “Smotheration”
Last night, I was at a bar. Of course. I am very much looking forward to next week when I don’t spend literally HOURS every night in a bar watching the playoffs. Last night, two guys were sitting next to … Continue reading
From the archives (September 12, 2006): Under the Ghostbuster Sky
Michael and I sat up on my roof for a couple of hours on the late afternoon-early evening of Sept. 10. The sky was what I call a “Ghostbusters sky”: smudgy, charcoal grey, heavy and low, dramatic. Smudgy almost-black clouds … Continue reading
From the archives (October 18, 2002): the first post on my blog
A Saturday in NYC with Allison and the Manson Family Saturday was a cold day, wind biting up and down the canyons. Sheila kind of weather. My friend Kate and I have discussed at length our preference for autumn as … Continue reading
From the archives (October 12, 2011): Wisconsin Idyll in Funny Hats with Rocket Launchers
Me, Kenny, Phil, and Ann Marie, in the photo booth at Lounge Ax in Chicago. On a “Pat night”. One of the most specific times in my life, so much so that it is practically an anomaly, was living in … Continue reading
From the archives (January 12, 2004): I Was Told I Would Get Wings
As a child, I was a Brownie. All of my friends were Brownies. It was part of being a kid. My memories of Brownie meetings and Brownie activities are rather dim. I have other memories from those long-ago days, very … Continue reading
From the archives (August 10, 2006): My Situational Crush
I had what I call a “situational crush” on Kyle. I do that sometimes, if I’m bored and need to liven up my daily routine a bit. I’ll create a random crush on, oh, the guy who gives me my … Continue reading
From the archives (January 14, 2004): Chicago: The Cold Extreme
The Cold Extreme I lived at a drafty apartment on Ashland with my dear friend Mitchell. A 3rd floor walk up, with hard-wood floors, big old windows, on the corner of a big brick building. Our windows looked out on … Continue reading
From the archives (January 15, 2006): A Sea-Level Kind of Girl
For the first couple of days I couldn’t catch my breath. We were driving through the mountains, and I had never been at such high altitude before. As a matter of fact, the Rocky Mountains were the first real mountains … Continue reading
From the archives (September 11, 2003): There Was Already Something a Little Off…
about that morning. I was running late. Normally I am on the bus, on my way into Manhattan from Hoboken, at 8:45, 9 am. But that morning, I was 20 minutes behind schedule. Because I was late, I decided to … Continue reading
