		<description><![CDATA[Writing outside is always ten times less successful than I want it to be. Because of the sun and my sunglasses I can&#8217;t really see the computer screen, and the breeze is blowing my hair in my eyes and etc etc. Nevertheless! Here I am on my front steps, drinking a neon orange mimosa, celebrating. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ A new neighbor moved into the apartment downstairs. She&#8217;s been here a week and already I love her.  She looks a little taken aback by the great beams of love I send in her direction whenever we run into each other in the garden. Maybe her instincts about this kind of thing are good [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have been truanting the studio! I have an excuse. My dog has giardia, a condition tiresome, gross, expensive, and pitiful. In addition to taking her on the many necessary walks and buying her the necessary powder (really a powder, like from an apothecary), I seem to think she&#8217;ll be less uncomfortable if I stare [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;Those who accuse men of always gaping after future things, and teach us to lay hold of present goods and settle ourselves in them, since we have no grip on what is to come (indeed a good deal less than we have on what is past), put their finger on the commonest of human errors [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been thinking a lot about work and identity lately. Or, to return to an earlier theme, not thinking about work and identity, but noticing the effects of not having the one on the other, much as I notice the progress of the amaryllis bulb in its stony bath on my windowsill. What I mean [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I finished Summertime last week and I&#8217;m still thinking about it. It doesn&#8217;t get less cruel; in fact, the dead Coetzee&#8217;s failures only become more grave, but it does get more bearable, partly because it becomes more of a novel, by which I guess I mean more fictional, more self-consciously experimental. And the people the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m reading the book Summertime by J. M. Coetzee.  In the book John Coetzee has died and a biographer is interviewing people who knew him when he was alive. So far I&#8217;ve only read two of the interviews, about half the book, but one of the traits the women keep returning to is his coldness. [...]]]></description>

Everyone else I met today calls it &#8220;space.&#8221; I share it with a woman who makes mosaics and a man I haven&#8217;t met yet who does something with photographs and paints behind a partition. It has a paint-spattered [...]]]></description>

Just now, for example, when I was supposed to be working on, oh, I don&#8217;t know, a novel? I decided to eat a pomegranate. First, how come I never noticed before how much the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I spent part of Thanksgiving weekend reading the first two books in a series of comics called Fables. The premise is that all the characters from the world of fairy tales and fantasy have been driven from their homelands by an evil being called the Adversary and forced into exile in the human world.
