  • 10:54 @melaniemcbride cool. are you going to do it? writing a book is actually a very exciting experience sometimes. #
  • 10:55 @melaniemcbride it's rare in this culture that you get to devote that much sustained attention to anything at all, esp anything intellectual #
  • 14:58 confession: i hardly ever read any blogs. even though i subscribe to hundreds. i read yours, though, i promise. #
  • 15:27 waiting for a watched pot to boil. #
