Uhm, yeah

It's been a while. Sorry readership! (Or at least, what's left of you)

What's on my mind these days are:


  • Elly's return - this weekend we make many decisions about where to go next;
  • Self-help books to combat my depression around the breakup - I just finished Learned Optimism, which, while being super-dated and from a very particular perspective, is a book that made me think quite a bit about the uncanny parallels between successful life insurance salespeople and successful grassroots organizers; the amazing Harmony Goldberg recommended Pema Chodron's "When Things Fall Apart" (no, not the book by Chinua Achebe) which I was reading until I left it in Elly's mother's minivan on the way back from Oregon. I await its return...anyhow. The Learned Optimism book comes with a test of optimism and pessimism that I am now inflicting upon my friends;
  • How I don't post to my blog often enough.


More soon...
