Still around...

For those who might still occasionally check here: yep, still around. Just slightly (really) stressed out....two term papers due Monday, then forum in London, then speech at Stowe (where two Harvard fellows will be in attendance - did not know about that when I agreed to this talk...).


But, my moment of total happiness today: walking home from Taj, took a random alley all the way down to the sea, so I could walk along the shore the rest of the way to the flat. Real movie-set type of alley: barred windows, blank brick walls, dumpsters, a sketchy van or two. But I met a cat along the way, really friendly, I think a little attention starved, thick hard body. Butted his heavy head against my hand when I stooped to scratch his ears. I was sorry to leave him, "poor slob without a name."


I will marry the first person who can tell me where that line is from without looking it up first...

P.S. Beetroot chips are the BEST.
