not sure there's anything better than seltzer water that glows.

i have to tell you i'm loving my new neighborhood.

last night my friend angela and i went to dinner and during a lull in the conversation we just sat there and listened to the silence. 

and then she said, it feels like we're not in new york.

oh, swoon. so true. 

it's very much new york, but different, lovely.

oh, i have so much to tell you all...

you want to know what i love about getting older?

my forehead wrinkles stay around just a wee bit longer than they used to.

can you see? 

there, on the right, that's me. 

can you see them? the wrinkles?

look closely.

yes, they're there. and i love them.

For my part I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars makes me dream.
