Lazy Sunday playing with iMovie, wishing I was in BA.
This is a true story. They really were trapped in an elevator for over an hour. Thankfully, no one was hurt… physically. The trauma was emotional.
I - thankfully - was not in the elevator. “Lifts” in Argentina are usually much smaller than than the standard.

Today I ran a marathon- voluntarily! Weird and surprising, coming from the high school cross-country runner notorious for feigning injuries to get out of 5Ks. But running became one of my favorite stress-relievers in college and ever since it has become therapeutic for me. After an unknown number of 5Ks, a truly spectacular 10K in Palermo and the glamorous half marathon of Columbia, MO, a marathon...

Before I landed in Kauai- for the “impromptu marathon”- I got some new digits.
On the 6+ hour flight from LA to Kauai, I sat next to Boris, a LA based dentist who had moved to the states about 25 years ago from Moscow. He insisted I call him if I ever find myself in LA or Eastern Europe. One seems slightly more Iikely than the other.

FYI, I suggest that you keep in mind that emails sound more impersonal, harsher, and are easier to misinterpret than in-person or phone communication. After all, people can’t see...

I wrote two checks yesterday...
one for my rent, the other to a friend for $50 worth of “BEER,” per my (ever-so-organized) Memo line detail.
All of a sudden I have a terrible feeling I turned the wrong one in to my landlord.
