Starting my final book for #WiTMonth. Also read volumes 3 and 4 of the On the Calculation of Volume series, which were both incredible. It's been a good reading month. #Booksky

I'm weighing the social aspects of being in a book group against having to read a series of books that I really don't like. Anyone else struggle with that? I always seem to be the Eeyore of the group.

Ruth Asawa is no stranger to San Franciscans—my son goes to the art school named after her—but this exhibition is truly amazing. Do yourselves a favor, New Yorkers, go see it at (your) MOMA www.nytimes.com/2025/11/20/a...

Incredible seats to see Midori tonight at Sixth and I. We've seen her twice at Kennedy Center but this smaller venue is a real treat.

Empty stage at Sixth and I with a grand piano. Menorahs on either side of the stage and a Star of David stained glass window on the back wall.

Here's what I read in January. A Reckoning was a devastating read that I'll be thinking about for a long time. The Bright Sword was a fun Arthurian read and I'm always up for that. The Solnit and Arendt books are important for the times. A good month. #BookSky 📚💙

Stack of books on a deck railing:
A Reckoning by May Sarton
