Sometimes I try to make certain email messages last as long as possible by reading them methodically—slowly, stopping after each sentence, reading the words again before moving on. I do this for both happy and not-so happy emails, patiently dragging them out into order to fully absorb them, like eating crumbs instead of taking whole bites. Afterward I read the message a second time, in its entirety, with the diffidence of a Big Gulp soda.

This weekend I became a blonde again. It's weird how easily one can cheat genetics.

FROM THE ARCHIVES:  
Some photos from my wedding were recently featured on Brooklyn Bride, here and here. (There's also a pretty thorough write-up of the wedding details.) — 02.25.09 People We Like. I've got a new photo in The Morning News: the co-owners of Frank White, an unusual coffee shop in my neighborhood. — 07.17.08 Charles Atlas will make a man of you! "Against Atlas' better judgment, I declined performing all of my exercises in the nude." (accompanying shirtless photo of the author [my husband] taken by me.) — 07.17.08 Cat on a Leash. I am totally buying a leash for Coleman asap. — 06.25.08 The Brooklynites. Great photos of a wide range of people from my favorite borough. (Thanks to Kurt [a talented photographer himself] for passing this on.) — 12.19.07 |
