Today an old man looked at my name tag and asked me my birthday. I said, "Why do you ask?" He said, "I have two friends named Claudia and they were both born on January 3rd. Were you born on January 3rd?" I said, "No, I'm a Virgo." He shook his head and said, "Ah, well. That's nice for you though."

You guys, this new Sergio de la Pava book - EVERY ARC BENDS ITS RADIAN - is so good. The detective story is really exciting & the novel-of-ideas element is so lush!

When I'm roller skating, the only problems that exist are roller skating problems. I cannot tell you just how glorious that is. 🛼 #rollerskating

I never know how to start anything. So here's a picture of me making soup (broccoli cheddar, thanks for asking) with the cat.
