I've been going through a Stevie Nicks/Fleetwood Mac phase. It was prompted by the book I'm currently reading, a Stevie Nicks biography. The book is no where near the quality of the music I've been listening to on my Fleetwood Mac Pandora station, but I have learned a few new things about one of my … Continue reading Don’t stop thinking about tomorrow

(Sometimes) I want to be alone
(Said in a Greta Garbo voice, pronouncing want vant.) As I sat on the train heading south to Hudson on a beautiful Sunday afternoon, I considered my decision to take the trip solo.
