i have no home, but reside in brooklyn. i feel like all of my life was spent in preparation for my move to nyc; will the next place i live feel similarly? i am told that i am surprisingly small. i think this implies that i have a larger presence. or that i’m one of those fat-skinny people. could go either way. my family is jewish, so my first dog was a schnauzer named mitzi. so it goes. in a perfect world, i would eat chocolate and drink wine for each meal, work from 12-8 then be out each night until 4 or so, travel to at least 4 distant lands per year in which i am able to converse fluently in the respective language, have no grey hair and self-trimming toenails. for now i settle on wine and chocolate often. i disagree with the sentiment, “no man is an island.” i like just about all of the arts. i seem to have an oscillating center of gravity. i tend to see the worst in myself and the best in others which leads to people underestimating me. don’t. i need absolute quiet, a bowl of coffee and minimal light for at least thirty minutes each morning to re-acclimate to the world of the living and then i still walk into things. for montessori i would pack my own lunch and the thermos contained a shirley temple; it was years before i realized this was not the norm. i will tell people my age but not what perfume i wear. i think life is pretty much one long game of hide and seek and nobody knows which part is his. lately, my closet is so cold i race in and out of it like it’s a basement in which a lightbulb has gone out. my neighbors suck.

Hi FG,
Great site! I tried your Aperol recipe and liked it. Do you get to Chelsea galleries often?..jd

not as often as i’d like–short hours of availability prohibit that. glad to hear you liked the aperol.
is there something over in chelsea now you highly recommend?
