Okay, it’s been 2 years, 2 months since my last entry and let’s face it, I wasn’t great about updating even before the hiatus. I have no excuses and make no apologies. Just grateful to be here, typing even.
But would you like to hear about:
- early covid days in NYC, morgue trucks on the street, jaywalking the West Side Highway
- how to cohabit in a very small apartment featuring dueling video-conference calls all day and night across 4 time zones
- what it’s like to swim for 45 hours straight
- Locked Up Abroad Part 1: Russia
- What may happen to your hair 3 months after even very mild covid
- How to lose friends and gain enemies
- Locked Up Abroad Part 2: Norway
- How to relocate to another continent on 3 weeks notice
Feel free to rank multiple options, or tell me you never want to hear about Russia or covid again…believe me, I understand.
In exchange may I ask your advice on how to ask a question that has had me stumped for over 2 years now…”HOW ARE YOU?”

I know much of this but still want you to write about ALL OF IT!!!
Cookie Addict ⋅ April 15, 2022
Early COVID days in NYC must’ve been crazy!
Athena ⋅ April 15, 2022
please write about all of this in any order and at great length! I am missed you and thought of you often in the last two years.

I'm glad to see your name in lights! :-)

Oh my, all of it! I was just thinking about you and your cold swims the other day! Good to see you write!

Any and all of if!

Since everyone is saying 'everything' I would like to shamelessly request 'how to lose friends and gain enemies.'
It sounds very engrossing. :)
Starhawk ⋅ April 15, 2022
I wondered what happened to you. I've been poor about updating as well, so certainly no stone-throwing from me.
My votes are for 6, 4, 7, and 8.

Locked up abroad, hands down! But also, everything else too, please!
Jigger ⋅ April 15, 2022
Omg, I want to hear about EVERYTHING in excruciating detail. Unless it actually is excruciating for you to tell, of course. I’m so glad to see you here. If not for That Other Site, I may have panicked. Hi hi hi!
sarafina ⋅ April 15, 2022
Um, ALL of the things, please.
Missed seeing your bolded name in my list of favorites 💕
plushcreep ⋅ April 15, 2022
It all sounds interesting to me!
I'm doing great, thank you. Always nice to see a blast from the past.
Bluesea ⋅ April 15, 2022
Hi! So happy to hear from you. My ranking in order of the list: 8, 3, 6, 7, 4, 5, 2, 1. But really, I’d be happy to hear about any and all!

You’re back! Yes, take your time and write about it all
TheMoor ⋅ April 16, 2022
Glad to see you back. I've not been great at updating. Something about Norway would be good. I have second cousins there (one of which got married during COVID).
nightborn ⋅ April 16, 2022
All of the above, of course. I am glad to see an update from you (not that I write anything these days).
sarahbaby. ⋅ April 16, 2022
I’m so so glad to see your name on here!! I’m interested in hearing about friends and enemies and everything else. How ARE you tho?? Like for real. 💛
pandora ⋅ April 16, 2022
Relocating and losing friends! Or anything! Also, I’ve stopped asking how are you and either say ‘so did you get it?’ or ‘what are you watching these days.’
echopod ⋅ April 16, 2022
Yes to all!!!
Jeanine ⋅ April 16, 2022
I choose all of the above in no particular order! Good to see an update. I’ve been on hiatus, too, just doing really uncool things 😆
hot-lips ⋅ April 17, 2022
Lovely to see you back! I haven’t even seen much of your swimming pics these days… And obv, want to hear about all of the above!
Calicakes ⋅ April 17, 2022
I want to hear it all.
noooncy. ⋅ April 17, 2022
Hi! Anything and everything?
charlie k. ⋅ April 17, 2022
If you can answer, "I'm not dead yet" is always appropriate.
3 weeks has me beat, I thought my 5 was impressive. I'm sure that story is fun to tell(?)
Whatever is the most fun to tell, for you, really.
