Last night I attended the final performance of the modern dance group Jessica Lang Dance. My expectations were not high, since modern dance has been slowly disintegrating into a vague, mushy art form.

My Strange Day
Today was a strange one. I recently was talking to a friend who said once he went to his Tuesday/Thursday class on a Monday by mistake. When he went to class on Tuesday, he realized what had happened. I couldn't say that anything similar had happened to me, but I should have known better. On … Continue reading My Strange Day

Striking the Balance
"I love routine. Until I'm bored, then I love excitement. Until I'm overwhelmed, then I love routine." I don't remember where I found this quote but it describes me perfectly. When I have no routine, I am nearly incapacitated until I have established one. Other times I find life mundane and strive to "mix things up." … Continue reading Striking the Balance
