Saturday Morning Post, Vol. 24

Wow what a day. (I write this Friday afternoon). (Been running around to like 4 stores merchandising. I've been out since 9 o'clock in the morning) (Ooh and my new couch came) (The FedEx guy hates me) (I mean it's a giant box. You could fit like four of me in there. Maybe more).

I picked up a book (as one does when organizing a bookshelf, completely abandoning the project originally started.) It was Humphrey Carpenter's Tolkien, a lovely '77 edition.

Saturday Morning Post, Vol. 21

I TOOK A REAL BALLET CLASS. Not a ballet class on semi-embossed carpet in my living room. An actual ballet class. Please understand that this has not happened since like March 13. And even better than taking class, we were at the THEATER (because it's a lot more roomy than the studio and you know … Continue reading Saturday Morning Post, Vol. 21
