		<title>some representations of things that are more or less real</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is Ralph and I (and way in the background, the kidlets) one year ago.
***

This is me looking happy. I&#8217;m happy because I was contacted to sew a few things for someone. I hope it works out. I seriously am already thinking over the projects in my mind. I also ordered fabric and I got [...]]]></description>

		<title>twelve years hence</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today went from pleasant, and nice out, and calm, to kind of ONE HUNDRED MILES AN HOUR AWESOME &#8211; and at times, overwhelming.
I&#8217;m speaking specifically of my friend J. and her daughter E. calling us up to re-invite us to Westport. Realizing we had not missed our meetup window, the kids and I threw together [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[To Steven Budiansky, in response to his piece &#8220;Math Lessons for Locavores&#8221; published in the NYT August 19, 2010:
I just read your article &#8220;Math Lessons for Locavores&#8221; in the NYT. I hope you can take the time to read and respond to my email.
I am not sophisticated in the ethical food movement and I live [...]]]></description>

		<title>missing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Our kitten Laurence is missing. This is causing us a lot of distress. If any Hoquiamites know anything about this little guy (last seen 2 days ago here on 1st street in HQX) please, please let us know!
If anyone else wants to send prayers or vibes. I know that might sound silly to some. But [...]]]></description>

		<title>“Live in the sunshine, swim the sea, drink the wild air.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Our day today included much bike riding and a marathon swim date at the HQX YMCA. To my surprise the same lifeguards have been totally transformed from their demeanors during the school year. Rather than a handful of rigorous, goofy, and flighty pseudo-rules a more relaxed atmosphere of sensible regulations prevailed. It was wonderful. At first [...]]]></description>

		<title>roadies and recovery</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s technically only a Saturday but our weekend has been a busy one already:  first, we hosted a family of three for two days and two nights (with the help of my mother). Our guests were the Canfields: family travellers, potential roadschoolers, musicians (Ralph and Joel met through FAWM; Joel penned &#8220;Camel Lash/Not Just Believe&#8221; that [...]]]></description>

		<title>the daily grind</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A couple weeks ago my son looked directly at me and said, &#8220;I&#8217;m going to go over across the street and meet the neighbors.&#8221; This didn&#8217;t surprise me: other neighbors have been telling me how impressed they were with my children&#8217;s friendliness and directness.  Our neighborhood has turned out lovely for kid-play because, quite [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Poor Ralph. Truly he does not know when I&#8217;m going to get this feverish idea and simply obsess on something until I get my way. In this case &#8220;my way&#8221; involved about $32 worth of sewing patterns, which I enjoy shopping for and ruminating on more than perhaps the reader can understand. At dinner the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Pools of sorrow waves of joy / Are drifting thorough my open mind / Possessing and caressing me</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m re-reading a favorite book of mine: The Little Friend by Donna Tartt (thank you Abi for giving it to me years ago!). A more perfect book for Kelly God-damned Hogaboom can simply not be found. I liked it so much I immediately went out to find her previous work, The Secret History, which was [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s 2 PM. Overheard in our house:
Phoenix: &#8220;Nels, it&#8217;s time for breakfast. A good breakfast. A frosting breakfast!&#8221;
Yeah. At 2 PM. And yes, that was pretty much their breakfast: cake and frosting, and  yeah, as soon as I&#8217;m done with my morning reading and writing I&#8217;ll pull them out of the cheap kiddie pool where [...]]]></description>
