i am grateful for:
1) having this incredible time in boulder
2) the st. julien and chautauqua
3) that i took the “moderate” hike. so not a sea-level new yorker’s moderate. but beautiful.
4) that i just passed a wolf. a wolf! first: a mountain lion? no. kitty? hmm, no. oh, wolf. hello, mr. wolf, late for a very important date. just on the fire road outside my cabin. a wolf!
6) the lovely dinner i had at chautauqua. and new belgium “fat tire” beer.
7) bathtubs
8) trailmix
9) boulder plantasies
10) home? do i have to? i really want to stay here. everyone’s all like, but you have a web job, why can’t you do it from boulder? um, i think i know why. but, sigh. sigh. sigh. peaceful. mountains. streams. trees. yoga. my friend john said to me, if you were a city you’d be boulder. and yesterday this guy i met at lohas said “you don’t seem like a new yorker at all. you seem like you’d have to live somewhere like san francisco or boulder.”
11) the number 33
