7 Quick Takes: INFP theme songs, bracket champions, and studio DJs
Linking up with Kelly. —1— Life at the office is mostly back to normal after the building collapse on our block. Still no heat or hot water, but I really can’t complain too much—at least it’s finally spring. There’s lots of construction/excavation going on outside, and the office is still barricaded off, but the barricade… Read More 7 Quick Takes: INFP theme songs, bracket champions, and studio DJs
7 Quick Takes: Snow days, Disney music, and disasters averted
Linking up with Kelly. —1— You’ve probably heard that we had a blizzard here in New York this week. As a result, I had a half day of work on Monday and a snow day on Tuesday. Not bad. It’s been quite a while since I’ve had a snow day…the last time involved a lot… Read More 7 Quick Takes: Snow days, Disney music, and disasters averted
7 Quick Takes: Bowl games and links
Linking up with Kelly. —1— I was pleasantly surprised by Notre Dame’s bowl win a few days ago. It was great to see them end the season on a high note, and I think I was most happy for Kyle Brindza to finish his college career with a game-winning field goal.

Linking up with Kelly (new host of 7QT!) 1. So who else watched Peter Pan last night? As a lifelong fan of the musical, I thought it was nicely done for a live TV broadcast. When I was about three, for a long time if I was asked what I wanted to be when I grew up,… Read More 7 Quick Takes: Peter Pan, squirrels, and Frozen things
7 Quick Takes Friday: Strand books, Vatican bowling, and musicals
Linking up with Jen. —1— I love browsing the $1 and $2 book racks at the Strand. There’s usually some amazing stuff hidden in there, along with some of the oddest books I’ve ever seen, including this blast from the past: [published in 1996.] [The best part is the description of the modem sound.] I… Read More 7 Quick Takes Friday: Strand books, Vatican bowling, and musicals
7 Quick Takes Friday: First edition
Linking up with Jen. —1— I work in an old brick building in Greenwich Village with creaky wooden floors that are noticeably slanted, where if you drop a pen it rolls away from you. I kind of love it. Whenever I need to go upstairs, I climb a rickety old staircase that is definitely not… Read More 7 Quick Takes Friday: First edition
