DIARY
– THE WEEKEND – Was busy busy busy, from top to bottom, with three challenging critiques to drill out for my workshop, and about three hundred pages of Laurence Sterne (I’ve another ninety to go by Wednesday). Plus I’m presenting my writing to the workshop a week from today, so I did two revisions (one following Jessica’s ever useful comments) of the first two chapters of Adrift on the Mainstream. It was a very indoors weekend for me. Still, we managed to have some fun. On Friday, Jess and I had a nice meal of spaghetti, tomato soup, and champagne. I prepared it, and as she said, “it was very tomato-y.” Saturday we met Matt for drinks in Brooklyn Heights and took a walk on the promenade. I’ve got a rash, however, I think from my dry skin, to that wasn’t fun. Lot’s of reading, lot’s of rain, not much else to report.
– WEATHER – Warm on the east coast. Not so in the midwest. Stormy down south. Rainy on the Pacific. Another bizarro week in the life of early 2006.
– JANUARY – Is the month of Radon Action.
