We didn’t know how to pronounce chiton–seems it’s “KITE-un.” (We had been saying “CHIT-ton.”)

Today it hailed for a couple minutes. I watched it bounce. The weather website I use said the hail might get up to marble size. So my best friend A who I was chatting with online convinced me to call the friend I was supposed to visit and cancel–we actually rescheduled for tomorrow morning. Then… Read More »

Yesterday we went to Berkeley. It was raining, so we didn’t hike beforehand. I wrote letters and we drank tea at our favorite tea shop. I photocopied back issues of zines. So I have binding to do. I’m trying to perfect my vegan enchiladas recipe. Today I’m trying sweet potatoes for the filling.

I inter-library loaned a cd from the library that I have no recollection of requesting. It arrived for me and I was like, what is this? So I checked it out, and I’m listening to it right now. Strangely, there’s a song called “Wallace Stevens” on it. Maybe that’s what interested me?

Yesterday I copied the bulletin and prepared 200 of them for mailing. It was okay. Folding 350 bulletins (with the folding machine) is mind-numbing. Before I did this job with P, and that made it more bearable, the conversation and togetherness. Ever need a file you can’t find? Where is my file? I’ve tried all… Read More »
