Interruption in blog service

I'm off for a long weekend in NYC, so no blogging until next week--and if you're wondering whether I didn't just return from a conference, and whether maybe I travel too damn much, you're right on both counts. But it's been a brutal week around these parts, what with returning to hideously cold weather, crashing down hard from my conference high, and facing the fact that I still have, as of yesterday, three full weeks of teaching left. (And, well, there are other things.)

So what's a girl to do but overschedule herself with friends & fun--Jonesy's latest play, bar-hopping with Bert and Lulu, a little shopping--to perk herself up?

It's never failed me yet.
