Went to a great conference this weekend; was inspired by the plenary; discovered the speaker was a wonderfully generous and friendly woman; got to have lunch with her and the rest of my panel; had a fun evening in a great college town; met some cool people; hung out with good friends; came home and got some work done; rode out a scary storm in my warm apartment; and oh yeah, I’ve got this guy to hang out with me while I write.

Not hard to think of myself as an incredible fortunate person. Not hard to remember how grateful I need to be.
