in a new york frame of mind…

so mercedes week – my yearly quest to run two loops around downtown sort of fast…

last week’s reading was good – well, one book was…

“my beloved world” by sotomayor – i showed you this book – we will write – maybe this week – i forget what i leave behind for the sub – on the book for journals at some point – but great biography – good picture of new york – of puerto rico – of princeton – of growing up and learning what you want to do in life – of trying again – of being gifted and finding out what that means – very encouraging read

“driving mr. yogi” – for the baseball season, for the last 13 years, yogi berra, one of the most famous baseball players ever, has been driven around in spring training by one of the yankees’ best living pitchers – ron guidry – good story – quick read – about how you care and develop relationships with people significantly older than you – they are important too

i know, i know, two books – you’d think i’m slacking or something – in my defense, i have a really long biography on a continent i’m reading right now – the history of ice is quite brilliant, believe it or not – that or it’s amazing what people will fight over
