		<description><![CDATA[To Jamie and I. 8 years. Who would have thought it possible; I certainly never thought it would happen. 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[Zim has some very valid points in his comment to my last post and I think they warrant a response post. First, go read his comments if you haven&#8217;t done so already. The Christmas Spirit; I&#8217;ve found as I get older, that so many things conspire against it. In no particular order: Rampant commercialization of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve mentioned briefly before Jamie &#038; my recent collision with organized religion and how, through the bad, it did bring about great good. For the two-ish years we attended this particular church, we were heavily invented in it, in all senses of the word; we invested our emotions, our time and our money. As I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[That&#8217;s what the air is tonight. Crisp. Autumnal. The sky is clear and star-filled. And living in NYC, that last is saying something. I think of all the seasons, Autumn is my favorite. Well, I don&#8217;t think that, I know that. Maybe it has something to do with the on-set of the end, or rather, [...]]]></description>
