That Iggy show sounds great, I'll have to give it a listen. What a pairing with a two lifetimes of incredible experiences. I recently watch a clip of Iggy on David Letterman, talking about how he started jumping into the crowd, among other things (https://youtu.be/PqDC7F4dBsM). An absolute delight.
"Less" is high on my tbr list right now. But first I'm going to read Kid Congo Power's memoir!
Longwood Gardens is one of my favorite places on earth. I haven’t been there since I’ve been back in Philly before the pandemic. So glad that you made the time to hang out there.
I actually started what I call the Bradbury Reading Program mid last year. I don’t do it everyday but skip days when needed and I’m currently on Day 379. I’m aiming to reach Day 400 by the end of the year (long break in December).
Have discovered a bunch of good authors this way, as well as really short ss and essays for when I’m feeling less motivated. (Including from your recs)
At the rate I’m going I will finish in at least two years. I’ve never had long-term goals like this so it’s been an interesting experience.
Interesting about the pens, I've been really enjoying the Sharpie S-Gel and Roller pens. I am intrigued by the Paper Mate Flair promise of not bleeding through!
I’m more of a Precise V-5 Rolling Ball pen 🖊 man myself :) Philly in fall sounds lovely. And that Iggy discussion must be delicious. I used to be obsessed with Iggy back in time. I DO have a portrait of him tattooed on my arm 🤨
Ahhh, how did I miss you were coming to Lancaster! I'm glad you enjoyed it. It really is a magical and weird and rich place.
It felt that way! I would like to return. (I’m from Ohio, so it’s a little like coming home. Little bit.)
In the same elevator as John Fetterman! Nice.

I love Philadelphia in the fall. Glad you enjoyed our city!

It would be so nice to be able to pop in there once a season and see how it changes!
