Some people find it odd that “my” library is at the end of the wing where the music department has some of their classrooms. When the air conditioning is on we close the doors, but for much of the year sounds from the band room make their way to my desk and I love it. … Continue reading Listen

Lost and Found: Sunday yoga
The first outdoor yoga class I took left me unimpressed with the experience. I recall it being a little annoying - there were all kinds of bugs, my mat wasn’t even on the bumpy and lumpy ground and grass got all over everything. Instead of the setting enhancing the experience, for me, it was a … Continue reading Lost and Found: Sunday yoga
Seneca 7
Three days post-race and I’m thinking I may have peaked in terms of muscle soreness. Since I can’t really run for another couple of days, I’ve got a little time to share my first relay race experience from an event I participated in the last weekend in April.

While my favorite wines are often bright and fruity, when it comes to jazz I’m more … Continue reading Brad Mehldau Trio at The Egg, 4/22/18
Running for the sun and in the rain
While I don’t maintain a formal bucket list, I have long thought that I would like to take part in a race in NYC. When an elementary (!) school friend contacted me a few months ago about the Shape Half Marathon, I knew I had found my race. The price was a little extravagant, and … Continue reading Running for the sun and in the rain
