		<description><![CDATA[One would think, leaving NYC after 21 years and moving back to the area where I grew up, Reading, PA, that I would indeed feel a sense of failure. Oddly, I don&#8217;t. Instead, I feel something that feels more like completion. No, I&#8217;m not saying, &#8220;I&#8217;m home, dig a hole and throw me in; life [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One universally consistent complaint about the iPhone is that it is not possible to cut and paste. Since I now tend to compose all my posts on my phone, this, given my feeble powers of memory, poses serious limitations on my inclusion of annotative links. I simply can&#8217;t remember extended URLs long enough to add [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[And that. Since it&#8217;s been so damned long since I last wrote, as Nath constantly reminds me, some random thoughts that have been running through my mind. In no particular order, with no particular relevance, rhyme or reason. Follies. Sondheim&#8217;s Follies. One of my favorite Sondheim scores. J &#038; I went to see it at [...]]]></description>

This weekend, if anyone is in or around Reading, PA, I&#8217;ll be in a benefit for the theatre that is responsible, in a large part, for who I am, and really, my very existance. Genesius Theatre. It&#8217;s good to be home. Click on the link above for info about [...]]]></description>

Funny what happens in your life when you stop looking for something to happen. Tonight, dinner at Rene Pujol. It will be wonderful. And then, who knows. Revisit the start of it all on Jamie&#8217;s site. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Happy New Year! I&#8217;ve previously mentioned the Christmas Eve bayberry mojo. And now, here is the New Year&#8217;s Eve mojo tradition. A quick internet check shows nothing about my family&#8217;s traditional NY Eve mojo. My guess is that it is a mix of PA Dutch and Scottish tradition, or just something that got started long [...]]]></description>

I get caught up in the minutiae of the daily grind and forget what is truly important, truly wonderful: the magic of being alive. It really is [...]]]></description>

Never had any. That&#8217;s why I always pick candy that I like. I always wind up eating it. I&#8217;m not complaining. But this year, I think it will be different. [...]]]></description>

As opposed to my mom, MomPA &#8211; pronounced &#8220;Mom-P-A&#8221;. This was all mentioned previously, in the last post, as a matter of fact. But I thought I&#8217;d refresh the memory.

We didn&#8217;t realize how desperately we needed to stop our lives and leave town for a breather. We left Thursday, later than expected; our flight was delayed about two hours. Well first one hour, at which point we called the restaurant at [...]]]></description>
